"Love Thing" is a song by American recording artist Tina Turner, released in November 1991 by Capitol Records from her 1991 greatest hits album, Simply the Best. It is written by Holly Knight and Albert Hammond, and Turner co-produced it with Chris Lord-Alge and Roger Davies. The single also includes the non-album track "I'm a Lady", written and produced by Terry Britten and Graham Lyle. The accompanying music video was directed by American film director and producer Michael Bay and features American model Tyra Banks.[2]

Critical reception

[edit]

Larry Flick from Billboard magazine commented, "New song featured on upcoming greatest-hits collection, Simply the Best, is a swaggering rocker, replete with crunchy guitars and a muscular rhythm section. Tune and arrangement are a perfect match for Turner's signature growl."[1] A reviewer from Liverpool Echo wrote, "Tough stuff this time with heavy rock riffs matched with aggressive vocals. Not for the faint-hearted."[3]
