    Now, that's a shame. RIP Tina. Ya' done good! Not many people can say they had a 60 year career in your profession. Thanks for the tunes.

    Was fortunate enough to see Tina in as intimate of a setting allowed in the 80’s at a Mpls Mn favorite bar Duffys! ! She was absolutely on fire start to finish!

    RIP to the True Queen of Rock and Roll

    A great voice in song and life. We'll meet again beyond the Thunderdome.

    Saw this the other day. Sad Bummer.

    I remember the first time I heard her music, seeing her in the video for What's Love Got To Do With It? one summer before 5th or 6th grade. Instant crush, prob before I even knew what that was. Beautiful, and sheesh, those legs!

    What a dynamic voice. I liked a lot of her music when it came out. Such an active, energetic, and animated performer. And, man, that winsome, infectious smile and laugh... I mean, you couldn't help smiling yourself seeing her doing it. She just always looked like she was having a great time.

    I'd have beat up Ike for her.
    I disabled signatures.

    Gonna bust out my old Betamax and watch Mad Max, Beyond Thunderdome. She was a Superstar, no doubt about it. Thanks for entertaining us through the years and leaving an impressive body of music. People will be enjoying Tina Turner's work for years to come.

    RIP, Ms. Turner
