Tina Turner

If you really love me don't try to change me
You look in the mirror it's not me you see
I don't want what's yours as mine
No I'll never cross that line
I want you just the way you are
Boy, you're everything I'm not
And that's all I've ever wanted

If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together

I tell you my love is everlasting
If you promise to give your best every moment
No, we don't have to compromise
Try to live each other's life
We can be ourselves tonight

If we ever come close
If we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together

If we open our eyes
Don't look any further
Cause we found out we'll ever needing each other
The difference between us will keep us together

So don't look at the words I've said
There's nothing that I might regret
No, don't play games inside your head

If we ever get close
And if we ever discover
How to hold on and keep our faith in each other
The difference between us will keep us together

If we open our eyes
Don't look any further
Cause we found out we'll ever needing each other
The difference between us will keep us together
Keep us, keep us, keep us together
Keep us, keep us, keep us
The difference between us
Keep us together
In each other
Together

Often dubbed the Queen of Rock & Roll, Tina Turner is arguably among the most iconic of female divas in history, with her prolific career and memorable personality as a performer and a public figure. Hailing from a small town in Tennessee, and born Anna Mae Bullock, Turner has cemented herself as one of music’s greatest entertainers.

Turner’s career in music arose from her frequenting of nightclubs near St. Louis, where she would meet her soon-to-be husband Ike Turner, who would also give her the alias “Tina”. With Ike, she would form the famous Ike And Tina Turner Revue. A dynamic, explosive R&B ensemble, the two became the definition of the genre in the late 60s and early 70s, where R&B/Soul had only tiptoed into the realms of the mainstream. A particularly influential act in popularizing the genre, the Revue went on to release some of music’s most memorable and iconic tracks – a cover of Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary”, the Phil Spector-penned “River Deep – Mountain High”, and the electric “Nutbush City Limits”. After a host of drug and abuse problems on Ike’s part, with the male Turner eventually engaging in a violent altercation with his wife, Tina decided to leave her husband for the solo life – and it worked.

As a solo artist, with the help of fellow artists like glam rocker David Bowie, Turner tumbled into mainstream success in the 80s with the only number-one hit of her career – the unconquerable love ballad “What’s Love Got To Do With It” as part of her debut solo album, Private Dancer.
