Tina Turner’s “Love Thing” from *Simply the Best* blends her vocal prowess with early-’90s pop flair but sits awkwardly among her classic hits like “Private Dancer.” George Michael’s “Heal the Pain,” an ode to McCartney’s style, offers melodic warmth but lacks standout energy despite a later duet with McCartney himself. Sheryl Crow’s raw “What I Can Do For You” tackles sexual harassment with sharp commentary, showcasing her early knack for meaningful rock.
Melissa Etheridge’s “I Want to Come Over” channels longing with her passionate voice, finding chart success globally. Heather Nova’s “Heart and Shoulder” offers polished alt-pop vulnerability, while Tanita Tikaram’s “Only the Ones We Love” aligns subdued folk-pop with elegiac strings. Zucchero’s duet “Diamante” melds Italian soul with Randy Crawford’s jazz finesse, and Tasmin Archer’s harrowing “In Your Care” emphasizes gravity over radio appeal.
Annie Lennox’s haunting “Love Song for a Vampire” stands out with its gothic atmosphere and evocative grief, tying perfectly to Coppola’s *Dracula*. Another highlight, Michael Bolton’s “How Am I Supposed to Live Without You,” channels theatrical heartbreak with his dramatic delivery, earning commercial and Grammy success. Meanwhile, Boyzone adds a polished touch to Tracy Chapman’s “Baby Can I Hold You,” crafting a tender, chart-climbing ballad.
Thunder’s “Dirty Love” captures late ’80s hard rock energy without overindulgence, while Lalah Hathaway’s “Baby Don’t Cry,” with Angela Winbush’s production, delivers smooth R&B polish. Right Said Fred’s fun “Don’t Talk Just Kiss,” featuring Jocelyn Brown, blends cheeky energy with early ’90s dance vibes. King’s X’s “It’s Love” leans into melodic clarity, exploring lighter sonic textures while retaining a touch of the band’s rock roots.
