Simply the Best

The Best was originally recorded by Bonnie Tyler in 1988, but became globally known through Tina Turners rendition, released in 1989. The song was written by Terry Britten and Graham Lyle, inspired by their admiration for Tina Turner and her incredible capacity to overcome and succeed in the music industry, despite the obstacles faced in her personal life and career.
