George Michael | Waiting For That Day {Live]

Tina Turner, the pioneering rock’n’roll star who became a pop behemoth in the 1980s, has died aged 83 after a long illness.She had suffered ill health in recent years, being diagnosed with intestinal cancer in 2016 and having a kidney transplant in 2017.Turner affirmed and amplified Black women’s formative stake in rock’n’roll, defining that era of music to the extent that Mick Jagger admitted to taking inspiration from her high-kicking, energetic live performances for his stage persona.After 2 decades of working with her abusive husband, Ike Turner, she struck out alone and – after a few false starts – became one of the defining pop icons of the 1980s with the album Private Dancer. Her life was chronicled in three memoirs, a biopic, a jukebox musical, and in 2021, the acclaimed documentary film, Tina. “Tina Turner, the ‘Queen of Rock’n Roll’

Where I Hope You Are

For so long
There’s been no-one else I care about
That my heart could really be so wrong again
Well it wears me out

I had a picture in my soul
Some place warm we could hang out when we’re old
Now it’s just – where I hope you are

These days, in so many, so many ways
My life gets bad for you
But your face when you look at me, look at me that way
Tears me in two

I had a picture, it’s not your fault
But the chair in the room where I get old
Now it’s just – where I hope you are

Oh, but there was a time
All I had to do was look at you
The world was mine
I’m telling you the world was mine

I’m so sorry
It’s like all of those deleted scenes you told me about
I’d pick them from the floor
Say Darlin’, show them all once more. For me.

A child’s fears
For so many, so many years
The good life got bad for you
But there’s no-one at the end of that smoking gun
Can’t you see your Mum and Dad just won the day

But it can happen, I’ve been told
Sometimes, babe,  drunken angels stumble home
Now it’s just where I hope you are

Oh, but there was a time
All I had to do was look at you
The world was mine
I’m telling you the world was mine

I’m so sorry
It’s like all of those deleted scenes you told me about
I’d pick them from the floor
Say Darlin’,  show them all once more, for me.
For me.
For me.
For me.
For me.

I’m so sorry…
