1985: Tina Turner - "What's Love Got to Do With It?"

"What's Love Got to Do With It?" was the lynchpin of one of the most amazing comebacks in the history of popular music. Tina Turner first hit the pop charts with her husband Ike in 1960. They reached their peak with the top 5 hit "Proud Mary" in 1971. However, amid incidents of spousal abuse, the two went their separate ways by the mid-1970's. Tina Turner released solo albums but failed to return to the pop singles chart. 13 years after "Proud Mary," "What's Love Got to Do With It?" gave her the first and only #1 pop hit of her career. It set the stage for many more years of pop hit singles and cemented her status as a pop music icon.
