[Hugo Rune]

Spent the evening in the Thunderdome tonight.

And I concluded: “We don’t need another hero”.

We’ve got enough.

RIP Tina.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

What an amazing artist she was. RIP.

 

[The Clamp]

River Deep… is one of my favourite tunes of all times.
When she sings that, she means it.

A helluva voice. A helluva career.

 

[Flagship]

She was great if you enjoy listening to women shouting.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

The praises for Tina Turner keep coming but none are enough to say how good she was, She was cool, she was sexy but had an incredible voice and stagecraft…. None like her. I will always regret not going to see her live .
A legend of our time who overcame so much to succeed . RIP indeed

I remember listening to a radio interview and Tina Turner the person was so ordinary and grounded and reserved.
Rest easy Tina

 

[FIVESTEPS]

Saw her at the Dome with Ike,can still picture her singing Proud Mary fabulous performer.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Not only a talented singer but a strong woman and a torch bearer in the campaign against domestic violence.

RIP.

I missed out on this the other day because I was at some inconsequential football match, but a lifelong appreciation from stuff like River Deep Mountain High through.

She would probably top my list (or near) of people I would like to have seen live after seeing videos of Proud Mary! Loved the CCR original, but........ just wow.

She was great if you enjoy listening to women shouting.

Was that really necessary?

 

[WATFORD zero]

I remember seeing her at the Suite on her comeback tour in the early 80's. What a night and what a performer.

RIP Tina

Private Dancer is one of the finest recordings in the pantheon of music. Something in my eye.

ps @Wozza are you going to see Caroline Polachek tomorrow at Wide Awake Festival? We are going mainly because of other bands on the bill, Lebanon Hanover, Molchat Doma, and A Place to Bury Strangers

It seems Mark Knopfler wrote that specifically for her, it would have been a bloody weird song for Dire Straits to have sung.

He wrote it for himself but didn't like singing it apparently.

It's a reasonable question given I love her, and it's down the road, but alas no. Enjoy!

I liked that song she wrote about Chris Eubank as well.
