Tina Turner "We dont need another hero"




Fitted perfectly with the Mad Max trilogy. Love the atmospheric feel of the track. Sure, it sounds like "whats love got to do with it (same writers and producers), but I much prefer the post apolalyptic lyrics with that killer middle 8.



Love the video aswell.

the over-the-topness of the performance of this is a definite highlight of her current show, despite how incredibly corny it is. big white wig, shoulder pads, fireworks, post-apocalyptic tribal gear for the dancers, big giant scaffolding to climb on....

it rocks lol

I love the song, too.

one of my my faves from the 80s. i remember as a kid when it would come on the radio, i would get completely quiet so i could hear every note. there werent a lot of songs i felt that way about. i'm not even sure what i liked about it. maybe everything.

In Ann Arbor? That seems like a small venue...you must mean the Auburn Hills? Either way, wish I could go.

Sorry but that song is terrible.

Tina is a true legend though. "Mountain High, River Deep" is one of the coolest songs ever.

So corny. The children's choir near the end just kills it. Totally destroyed Thunderdome.

Out of the context of the movie though, it's not bad for 80's mush.
music I'm afraid of Americans. I'm afraid of the world. music
