• SPECIAL • Grammy Weekend

This Sunday [January 28, 2018] is the 60th Grammy Awards on CBS.

I mentioned recently not feeling up to live-viewing awards ceremonies.

But, I present this special “Grammy Weekend” thread to salute some really good music. Grammy nominations and/or wins are not required. This may be appreciated by people here at Progressives Chat.

My blog thread entry singles out my favorite winner, in a top category, from the 1980s.

The 1984 Grammy nominees for Record of the Year (for a single recording) were: “Dancing in the Dark” by Bruce Springsteen; “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” by Cyndi Lauper; “Hard Habit to Break” by Chicago; “The Heart of Rock & Roll” by Huey Lewis and the News; “What’s Love Got to Do with It” by Tina Turner.

The winner: “What’s Love Got to Do with It” by Tina Turner. It also won for Song of the Year, awarded to the songwriters, Terry Britten and Graham Lyle. It is terrific—both sexy and smart. (For a guide, here is the page from Wikipedia for the referred category: Record of the Year .)

Here is the video:
