Tina Turner - Two People - Single

Two People

Single (1986)

Two People is a slow ballad and was the second single from the album Break Every Rule. Tina promoted it at several TV-Shows in Europe and performed it live at her Break Every Rule Tour. A live version is available on the Live In Europe album from 1988. As a special bonus, the UK single contains a poster and the gatefold maxi includes additional live songs. In 1988, some releases of the Live In Europe album included a limited edition 7“ vinyl or 5“ CD single with a previously unreleased „Tendermix.“

The music video shows Tina in the first scene sitting on a bed in an apartment. Later she wears a long coat, standing in front of a revolving door and walking down a street while it's raining. After she was looking for shelter in a telephone cabin, she changes her clothes and performs on stage in a nightclub. Tina produced also a 'Hollywood Version', in which she represents different characters. In this version, she don’t perform in a nightclub, but standing alone on stage of a big concert hall, wearing a beautiful white long dress.
