40 years ago this week, "Private Dancer" by #TinaTurner entered the #Top10 at 9. It peaked at 7 on 23 Mar 1985. This might be my favourite of her songs, contrasting the wistful lyrics and the funky melody. I just learned it was originally written and recorded by #DireStraits, but never released. They gave it to Tina Turner, and most of them participated in the new recording. Mark Knopfler was replaced by Jeff Beck. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4QnalIHlVc #1980s #MusicHistory #MusicVideo
