I Might Have Been Queen
"I Might Have Been Queen" is a song written for Tina Turner as the first track on her highly successful '' Private Dancer'' album, and later included as a re-mixed version, with an additional lyric added to the bridge, on her '' What's Love Got to Do With It'' soundtrack album. The song was written by Jeanette Obstoj, Rupert Hine, and Jamie West-Oram for the ''Private Dancer'' album. The lyrics are meant to be autobiographical, telling Turner's story. Following a discussion with Rupert Hine, co-writer Jeannette Obstoj spoke with Turner about her life, starting with the cotton fields in Nutbush, Tennessee. They also discussed Turner's interest in Egypt and her belief in previous lives, including her apparent belief that in a prior life she was Hatshepsut, a Pharaoh who took the throne from her brother. "I Might Have Been Queen" was performed on the 1984 Private Dancer Tour and during the performance at Radio City Music Hall Radio City Music Hall is an entertainment ven ...

Song
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song.

Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical compose ...
