The Grammy Hall of Fame has released the list of songs and albums making the cut for this year’s class of inductees, and Tina Turner’s 1984 comeback hit ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It’ is among the honorees.

Joining Turner in the Hall of Fame are Bruce Springsteen‘s ‘Born in the U.S.A.,’ Paul Simon‘s ‘Graceland,’ Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five’s ‘The Message,’ and Gloria Gaynor’s ‘I Will Survive.’ In order to be inducted, a recording has to be at least 25 years old — and only 25 new inductees are selected each year, so earning the enshrinement is no small honor.

In fact, this year’s list of inductees contains a number of classics from all genres, including the Rolling Stones’ seminal ‘Exile on Main Street,’ Cole Porter’s ‘Anything Goes,’ Bill Cosby’s legendary comedy album ‘I Started Out as a Child,’ and Bukka White’s 1940 blues classic ‘Fixin’ to Die.’ They’ll all be honored at the 54th Grammy Awards ceremony on February 12, 2012, held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Check out the full list at Billboard, and start adjusting your record collection accordingly!

Congrats to her it definitely deserves to be there very much a classic though I heard it was a remake. Who recorded the original?

Some group called Bucks Fizz but theirs was unreleased until 2000.

TINA!! TINA!! TINA!! congratulations!
