  • ikes version is better

  • The best arrangement EVER! Spector and Tina at the top of their game on this one!

  • @MsDDRey :- Absolutely, others have tried to cover this but there's only one Tina and only one Spector. No one else even comes close.

  • Yes Glee did kill this song. :) So did Tina. Classic! Best song ever!

  • GLEE KILLED THE SONG in a good way (:

  • Eat the cake anna may...Eat the damn cake!!!

  • @compu1988 Sad But Funny!!!

  • Do I love you my oh my !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thx Tina for all...!

  • only one tina turner go girl xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA

    TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA

    TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA

    TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA TINA

    TINA TINA theres only 1 Tina Turner forever and ever

  • i love both tina and celine dion's version of river deep mountain high <3

  • Absolute genius from both Ike & Tina and Spector's production enhances this song in such a way that it elevates it to another level. One of the GREATEST SONGS OF ALL TIME!!!

  • @Elliotspeck Just Tina. Only Tina. :)

  • @nthomas32 True!

  • Quite possibly the greatest song ever put to record...

  • @manutd689908  Can't argue with that . Lots of good female singers but Tina is in a different class altogether.

  • Don't cha just love Tina? I do along with 2,478 people here!

  • I want this version of the song for my ipod, anybody know where I can find this one?

  • @SpuzzyKat Just rip it off of youtube :)

  • @Lucyeths12 How do you rip things off the tube if you don't mind me asking?

  • @BlaqueReign25 There are many different free softwares you can download that will allow you to convert audio from youtube into mp3. I use dvd videosoft, and I love it. Just google that software or any "youtube to mp3 converter"

  • @Lucyeths12 Thank you so much for the info, greatly appreciated!

  • Beautiful tina is very good but celine sings it a little better in my book

  • this song touches ones soul. It is the most beautiful song (from a female artist) I have every heard. The only one who does it so perfectly is Tina. Yes Celine has tried and many others have as well but only Tina can do it the way it was meant to be done. God bless.

  • Phil Spector is a true genius. He's almost certainly a sociopath too, unfortunately.

  • Click the like button if you clicked on this because of pia toscano!

  • Tina is still fierce. whoop ikes ass if he fucked wit her now! cant even watch that movie without crying, and not normal crying the kind that makes you feel helpless and angry....i was worried when he came in with that gun and that girl kept walkin on. Big love for Tina! Id love to see her again someday.

  • I love this song, the original is amazing but I love celine and glee's versions too♥ so dope(:

  • Lots of singers try but after listening to their version and then immediately play Tina's it is blindingly obvious she is just in a different class. Not to discredit those who try the cover, Tina is the one and only. Comparisons with Celine is doing Celine a huge favour. This song is Tina's and she will always be the best at performing it.

  • @BRNOZKK601 there is only one tina turner and she can sing this the way we like it

  • Wow real instruments ... Sounds great!!!

  • Pia,,no--you got no soul--this girl car rock!

  • Such an original! Such a raw and powerful sound. It's interesting that she cultivated a "rock" sound more so than an R&B sound. It's not a "beautiful" voice; it's a memorable voice.

  • you wouldnt think that a guy like Ike was beating on something as beautiful as that !!! I love you Ms. Tina Turner

  • oh tina. simply great. sometimes when you hear great pop songs of today you forget that singers are only great if there is uniqueness, soul and a perfect voice. tina you are perfect. i get chills.

  • there is only one tina go girl she came out on top to ike go girl x

  • if on crack you will like this song adn I like Tina other songs

  • Phil Spector was a genius, but unfortunately most geniuses are also sociopaths.

  • love it tina queen of power rock 1

  • Comment removed

  • @glengal2 bs

  • I love this song! How weak is a woman in love...

  • Pia is a great singer but she's not Tina. Lol she still did not deserve to get voted

    Off...

  • Who else came here because they heard this classic oon American Idol, and is blown away by the original. Tina is awesome.

  • @maxsax2003

    i did. That version made me want to hear the original....and that's all folks.

  • Pia committed Idolcide with this song. Tina Turner has more passion in her little toe.

  • Comment removed

  • im here for tina,but damm that pia is good! she should have been in the final against lauren!

  • I knew Pia was going home when she did this song. First off this isn't the type of song you really cover, hello Tina Tuner Classic. Secondly, Glee just did this last season and killed it. So she had 2 live up to the classic version that is Tina Turner and/or The Glee version . She accomplished neither.

  • i love this song . pia was alright i guess......

  • No copycat version brought me here...this is a classic && Tina's best song in my opinion

  • Awesome

  • The original trumps the plastic hollow glee version always! Tina @ 72 can out perfrom the auto tuned robots of tht dreaded show!

  • My favorite song by her. Mainly because that bastard Ike didn't write it and it's way better than anything he can write. Burn In Flames Ike :)

  • @caramel4424 Yeah, instead of being written by a wife beater, it was written by a murderer. So....progress?

  • @CoolerKing37 i didn't ask for your smart ass reply. i stated my opinion so mind your fucking business. Like I said I love it mostly because he didn't write it. She was actually able to break free and do her own thing for a quick second. I don't give a fuck about theguy who wrote it. I just love that she proved ike wrong and was able to sing a hit song without his help. end of discussion

  • @caramel4424 Strange....Lana Clarkson has the complete opposite feeling towards this song....And if you didn't want a reply towards your opinion, then don't post a comment on a forum that has open discussions. You daft cunt.

  • @caramel4424 HA HA...coolerking put you in your place bitch!

  • @CoolerKing37 Talk about respect...Geez, was he a murderer then? No. Let's not talk about his unfortunate later years, but rather his masterclass. He is a genius; the greatest producer and influential master of the greatest era of music...

  • @manutd689908 I'm not saying he isn't a great producer. However, your "he wasn't a murderer then" argument is completely retarded. I'm sure O.J. was a nice guy too back when he still played for Buffalo....

  • @CoolerKing37 You know what? Your right. I guess I'm just trying to defend him, one way or another. Your O.J. citation was completely justified...

  • no this is a tune not like to day boom boom what is that all a bout go tina

  • Sucks it was not a hit in the US but she fucking rocks Love you TINA!!!!!!!!!!

  • In "whats love gotta do with it" did you see the symphony this guy orchestrated for this song? Geez! Her voice, thankfully, is powerful enough to harmonize with all those instruments. I cant think of a modern day singer that has such a strong voice.

    Mazel Tov to the composer.

  • go tina love this tune there is only one tina turner loads of try to be tina but she is top

  • just came across this full song (sad i know) id always known its name and heard bits and pieces, but man is this incredible. that sound, the voice, all of it. truly a classic.

  • As a young child I had a few records on an old red record player. This was one of them, very special. Thank you for posting.

  • pia toscano is gonna annihilate this song next week... she's gonna take to a level like celine dion and just knock it out of the park its the perfect pace and vocal range for her

  • @cool12328 I SAW PIA TONITE SHE'S GOOD BUT NO ONE CAN COMPARE TO TINA

  • @heidy4271 idk i think she was amazing but i guess im a little biased... tina's a legend but im seeing the ridiculous star quality in pia... PIA is too good hahaha

  • @cool12328 -- agreed SUPER STAR quality in Pia...but I must say when I heard her singing it, it just made me want to go hear the original! Which I don't think that was her intent! You know when you do it, you gotta do it better than the original. You could feel the passion and soul in Tina's voice! Whoo! Ba-bay, ba-bay, ba-bayyyyy {singing in my not so Tina-like or Pia-like voice} lol ;-)

  • The most epic song I've ever listened before.

    \

  • love the Phil Spector distant sound of POW ER..........also love Tina' s voice and present power of her being..one of my faves back in the day...............

  • love the Phil Spector sound of POW ER..........also love Tina' voice and power of her being..one of my faves back in the day...............

  • love the Phil Spector sound of POW ER..........also love Tina' voice and power..one of my faves back in the day...............

  • Tinaaaaaa yeeeeees!!!

  • tina is the best glee is ok but there is only one tina that can sing this tune

  • this is a clasic

  • 52 dislike this song  because they like the glee version better

  • @ebchwill78 at least they got introduced to it ,lady ga ga cant claim it first....

  • I was looking all over for this version :D, thanks so much♥

  • go girl

  • this songs discribes how i feel right now

  • rtina turner is the queen of music in general not just rock N roll !!!!

  • fantastic,i love tina,the best...............

  • I LOVE TINA

  • Epic is right, music like this is timeless. It's something your grandchildrens grandchildren will listen to in awe.

  • 51 people didn't have a rag doll or puppy.

  • @Illume2011 That is the most retarded comment ever.... 

  • @Illume2011 yea, and 7 other ppl never felt river deep, mountain high loving. lol

  • @Illume2011 or parents who had 60's complilation tapes and always played them in the car when on the way home from visiting the grandparents ( at least thats how I heard this wonderful song ) .

  • The BEST VERSION by far, by leaps, and by bounds: ROCK AND ROLL AND SOUL!

  • This is song is EPIC

  • i just searched for this and had to sift through glee and celine dion. which is irritating, because the original is clearly incredible!

  • @rach1660 What the versions by Celine Dion, Glee, and Beyonce lack is Phil Spector's strong Wall of Sound that made Tina Turner's version of this song sound so incredible.

  • I think this is the ultimate love song.

  • nice song but I like more with mercedes and santana (glee) ^^

  • Oh por Dios!!! Tina... que voz.... LOVE YOU!

  • I'm gonna be as faithful as that puppy. No I'll never let you down.

  • THIS IS THE "ORIGINAL" AND THE BEST VERSION BY FAR. HOW CAN ANYONE OR ANYTHING BE BETTER THEN ITS INVENTOR.

  • glee is always taking a good song and messing it up !!!!!!!! you wouldnt even think that the song was that good if you heard them sing it !!!! this is so much better than glee's

  • @abrown2015 i think we cannot compare. Glee is reviving the classics

  • @fehanae i guess you are right because we are forgetting what real music sounds like with all that lil wayne shit poisoning our minds

  • glee version, so much better :P

  • what a voice. with the wall of sound as well it's an absolutely ferocious sound!

  • Beautiful...beautiful....beaut­iful.My very favourite.Thank you for sharing.

  • most underated voice ever ..... she has buckets of talent

  • Ya man I just listened to every version, and that Phil Spector sound is the best. The power of that music matches the Strength of the lyrics from Ms. Tina.

  • This song didn't chart? I guess politics was alive and well then. This should have been #1 for a long stint on everybody's top ten list. Tina rocks and always will.

  • Wall of Sound= Wall of Echo

  • @truthasfineprint Ha there's more to it than that but you get the gist of it.

  • This tune was not a Billboard hit, but it's definitely a CLASSIC. Viva "River Deep Mountain High' and long live ROCK AND ROLL!

  • Genius, psychopath, talented, tortured, great producer,not so great husband according to his ex-wife. So goes life. ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!!!!!

  • Such a beautiful woman with a fantastic voice!!!

  • This song is the bomb.

  • I love this song :)

  • Phil Spector was on the RIGHT side of madness when he constructed this. My GOD. 

  • >.< Glee sux eggs

  • Please young idiot of on the forgetten path.. If Glee Brought you here then Remove your dirty ass shoes a pay homage to Tina and Phil.

  • the very fact that glee is mentioned on a video of a brilliant song by a brilliant singer and producer makes me cry inside.

  • @alcoholicglitterati Amen to that!

  • Phil Spector may be a psycopath, but you gotta love that wall of sound. It rocks.

  • @whowhohowie I read that the fact that this song wans't well recieved put him over the edge. The was meant to be his masterpiece and when it ddin't take the world by storm COO KOO. Anyway, they were wrong, it is a masterpiece.

  • @whowhohowie For sure man, people should just put aside bias's while listening to the music he produced. The man was a genuis.

  • @whowhohowie Agreed!! The wall of sound is awesome!! Check out some of my tunes if you want to hear the NEW wall of sound...listen to Buried at Sea!

  • @whowhohowie BS

  • I don't watch glee. im 18 and im aware of music from 60s,70s, and 80s because i actually have ears and i know when i hear crap (todays music) and great music (music of the past) there are a few good artists today but they dont get the recognition the most untalented get paid the big money and played on radio. and i also would like to thank my parents for getting me into older music, LOVE RYAN :D

  • @KyplayaZ4lyfe aha thas wassup homie. Im the same way and am the same age

  • @SmokeyNR haha yeah you know where its at.

  • @SmokeyNR haha yeah you know where its at.

  • sweet !

  • always loved this song. i only hope to sing it as good as tina did before i die. :)

  • ...and Leon Russell arranged this nice little number! He was working a lot with Herb Alpert at that time and you can hear his influence as well. Tina is incredible!

  • stick that ike!

  • believe it or not, while there are people who were already aware of this song, there are others like me who come to know of the existence of such songs thanks to glee. so please excuse us who are not born with the awareness of such greatness. and those who are intent on being punishing of glee's attempts, think about the new generation that's lost in beiber and miley cyrus and think about how glee is in a position to push the great songs of the past into the future. don't compare. just relish.

  • @fierte Yes, because God forbid people go out on their own to find this kind of music and aren't just handed everything on a silver platter via Glee and Top 40 radio.

    Give me a break. If I can get off my ass and go hunting this down, anyone else can. 'Nuff said.

  • @IslesGirl14 yes but how do you know what to hunt for? I love this song and I think the original is better than the Glee version. But i would not have known about such a song unless Glee had used it. Why is that such a crime? everyone is acting like those who came to this song by Glee does not deserve to enjoy it or something..

  • @fierte You watch movies, just like I did. I saw What's Love Got to Do With It and found out about all of Tina's music. Same with Ray Charles, and with the 70s rock from Lords of Dogtown. Or you could just go through YouTube- I've done it plenty of times.I'm not saying people who watch Glee don't deserve to listen to it or enjoy it, but don't act like this is the only way anyone can ever learn about music, because I have never seen an episode of Glee in my life and I don't intend to.

  • @IslesGirl14 eh? I never said that. I was annoyed because people were bashing Glee for even attempting the song when people like me who watch Glee are thankful to them for introducing those songs to us. You find these songs your way and I find them my way. There is no need to make it like one way is better than the other. I think you misunderstood my intentions and came to the wrong conclusion. I was only being supportive of Glee as one of the ways in which you come across songs like that...

  • @IslesGirl14 girl i agree 100

    girl i agree 100% glee is fag tv show tina turner is the best and the movie what s love got to do with it is the best angela bassett plays tina turner also micheal jackson mom katie jackson she is a hell of a acterest shes very good be good all ike turner fans

  • Man Tina cranked it up on this!! She's soooo good!

  • i just watched what's love got to do with it yesterday...made me wanna hear this song again.

  • i so love this song!!!

  • You know, the only mainstrean cover of this I've ever enjoyed nearly as much as the original would be Annie Lennox' version... it's on the Walking On Broken Glass E.P.

  • Tina's "original" version is BETTER than any of the copies. Hands down.

  • Very Much So cjandlody

  • @cjandlody i like the glee better... :D

  • @brixtonqt that's probably the most accurate comment on here! Exactly what I was thinking!

  • This song give me chills as it did in the movie...It sounded more slower in the movie.

  • PHIL SPECTOR

  • Tina murderd this song how dare a group of white kids and one fat bitch even think they can have this kind of impact. It's insulting!!! Tina I love you. Glee is a fukin joke lol. To the point that people argue over who sang it better wow insane. Tina put her heart and soul into this song and was even one of the first black artists to cross over like this it is a simply beautiful song do your research dummies one of the best singles ever period! Fuk Glee!!

  • The original songs are always better than anything redone, because it is THE ORIGINAL!

  • Comment removed

  • Glee did a respectable cover of this song. You have to be completely ignorant to think otherwise. Annoying to hear all of these "Oh Glee is a bunch of kids running around, and it's popular so I automatically hate everything about it because I'm cool and original songs are the only thing that matter even though I probably wasn't even alive when this song was ACTUALLY good". Instead of being ignorant to music, try listening to it without being influenced.

  • @ sebaiturria: No. Nobody needs to thank Ryan Murphy. It's cool to love Glee but these artists are epic. If you really love music you'll find this song. Kids who love Glee but who don't get musical history aren't going to buy a Tina Turner CD because of Glee. They'll buy the GLEE CD. Ryan is banking on it . GLEE is awesome but don't insult Tina.

  • Thanks GLEE, thanks for crapping all over a great song.

  • MY FAVORITE SONG FROM THE MOVIE! HER BEST!

  • How can 46 people hate this song? The instruments and strong vocals-wow

    people really dont know music

  • Tina is the only human that can confront and conquer Spector's wall o' sound.

  • I saw and liked Glee's take on this song, got a kick out of the dancing a la Tina. As for I'm All That And More Celine Dion.....ick, ugh, cringe.

  • None of them are as Good as Deep Purples!

  • Glee Did a good job on this PHIL SPECTOR CLASSIC.

    This Song Remeinds Me of Skateland in Whittier California

    Ceres School Class of 1966 The Greatest Skateboard school in Southern California

  • say what you will about spector, this song was genius

  • say what you will about spector, this song was genious

  • This is the Best What Can I say. Recorded at Gold Star Recording Studios Los Angeles Ca

    This Song is Total PHIL SPECTOR

    This Song is Priceless Have not Glee and Phil Spector

    Sounds Like Britney Spears and & Beatles

  • God Ilove this song, que bonita rola, cuanto sentimiento. Tina is the best.***

  • this video is soooo artsy!! i love it? downloaded the full album in downloadmusic.im for free

  • Maravilhosa cantora, e bela musica !

  • What happens when White (Phil Spector) and Black (Tina Turner) come Together!

  • @xwaystranger Absolutely! Beautiful things happen when black & white can work together!! In music as well as life :~)

  • @whatanightmare1 Unfortunately, I haven't seen it work "perfectly" in any field but ART. But then again, ART is the Highest of Human Achievements.

  • @xwaystranger I did not mean "perfectly", only "Beautifully" :~) But you are right, artistic/creative collaborations are always a hit when we combine the 2. I think this particular song is proof of that...but you know it was a huge hit in Britain, but not so much in the United States...I think it ended up at #67 on the charts here...which makes me wonder if it was not ahead of it's time.

  • this song takes me back to when I was a child great song

  • old tunes never die go girl

  • Phil Spector's masterpiece, Tina is of course amazing

  • immer wieder bekomme gänsehaut ....
