Biography

American rock singer, actress and author, with a powerful blues-soaked voice, often referred to as 'The Queen Of Rock 'n' Roll', born 26th November 1939, Brownsville, Tennessee, USA, died 24th May 2023, Küsnacht, Switzerland. Became a citizen of Switzerland and relinquished American citizenship in 2013. Turner began her successful career with hits like "River Deep, Mountain High" alongside husband [a=Ike Turner] in the 1960s, from whom she separated after years of abuse, as she reported in her autobiography "I, Tina". A&M man [a192111] is credited for relaunching her career in the 1980s. Singles such as "What's Love Got to Do with It" and the album "Private Dancer" put her firmly back into the mainstream, along with roles as 'The Acid Queen' in "Tommy" and 'Aunt Entity' in the film "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome". In 2008, Turner came out of semi-retirement and embarked on her "Tina!: 50th Anniversary Tour" - one of the largest ticket-sales tours of that year. 'Rolling Stone' magazine has hailed her as "One of the greatest singers of all time", reaching unprecedented heights in stadium-filling Rock.

LYRICS

Should you stay, should you go
You're beggining to see
I go hot, I go cold
It's just the devil in me
You've got to understand I am in love with a beautiful man
So if you're feeling insecure you've really no cause to be

I want you near me, don't you run away
I just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
Don't let me down

You're so good with your hands
To help me with a hook or a zip
Indispensable that's what you are
For the occasional kiss
I'm only playing games with you, I can't be nice without being cruel
I know it's not fair, but I make the rules

I want you near me, don't you run away
I just got used to having you around
I want you near me, come on here and stay
Don't let me down

All I want, I've decided
Is your attention undivided

I want you near, don't turn away
I want you near me, won't you stay
