Tina Turner - If This Is Our Last Time - Single

If This Is Our Last Time

was released as a promotional single to promote the album Good Hearted Woman.

Most people don't think of Tina Turner as a country artist, which is understandable because she isn‘t. However, on „Good Hearted Woman“ she records a collection of country songs in her own unique style and the result is an album many country programmers and listeners will enjoy.
