Tina Turner - The Best & Proud Mary (live, 2009)

[highplainsdem]

Just months before her 70th birthday, rocking the GelreDome arena in Arnhem, Netherlands.

She'd already done eighteen (18) songs that night, according to Setlist.fm. These songs closed the set, and she still came back for a two-song encore.

3. Anyone remember THIS "Tina Turner" from the 2008 primaries?

[highplainsdem]

6. No, but thanks for posting that! I couldn't find any more info on it googling,

or doing separate searches of DU and YouTube.

But I did run across this, from 2020, which I got a kick out of:

8. Here are some of the better numbers from that show

Biden-Palin debate:

Palin: All That Sass

2008 Republican Primary Losers medley

W and Laura sing "Home On The Range"

Five guesses as to who wrote Home On The Range!

9. Now that you asked who wrote it, I'm guessing you did. Was this a Gridiron Club event?

Love all the videos. Thanks!

[DFW]

10. I only wrote a small part of that show

Robert Yarnall (W and Giuliani) wrote most of it. It was an independent off-Broadway production that we closed down when Obama won.

11. Kudos, and thanks for explaining! I just checked his website and the

Political Idol Live website.

And I searched DU for "Political Idol" and found this post of yours:

I never dreamed of what was to come later on.

13. I don't K&R in Lounge indiscriminately

[highplainsdem]

15. Thank you for reccing this OP!

I hope people don't think I post music indiscriminately, either, whether here in the Lounge or in the Music Appreciation group.

But I like a lot of different types of music, so I don't expect everyone to agree with my taste (even though IMHO it's excellent, lol).

More seriously, I was really happy to run across these videos from that concert at the GelreDome. Especially when I discovered from the setlist posted at Setlist.fm that Tina had already rocked her way through 18 songs before getting to these.

She's a force of nature, and we've been blessed to have so much great music from her over many years.

17. Thank *you* for being a longtime good human!

[highplainsdem]

18. Wow. Thank you for that compliment...

though I don't know what I did to deserve it.

19. What you did to deserve it - good human
