BEFORE IT WAS A HIT SONG…
These songs are well known
but you may not know about the earlier attempts to score a hit record with
prior versions of the same song.
Better Be Good To Me
"Better Be Good To Me" was written by Mike Chapman, Nicky Chinn and Holly Knight. The latter was in a group named Spider. That band recorded the original version of the song which was issued in 1981.
Tina Turner recorded a remake of "Better Be Good To Me" for her 1984 album 'Private Dancer'. She didn't change the vocal approach too much, except for injecting a grittier treatment. Turner's cover reached the Top 10 in America and Canada.
