Friday Night Fun Stuff--One of the Living by Tina Turner

This is a wonderful song, combining elements of a haunting melody with hard rock. It is certainly one of my favorite Tina Turner songs, where the opening melody plays slowly in the back of my mind. The song is One of the Living, from the soundtrack to the movie Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. From YouTube:



In the desert sun, every step that you take could be the final one
In the burning heat, hanging on the edge of destruction
You can't stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
They always said that the living would envy the dead
