Superstar Tina Turner performs a cover of a Barbra Streisand song " Watch Closely Now " and then she is changing and sings a medley with Cher.

It is from the Sonny & Cher Show aired 11 March 1977.

This is Tina's 3rd appearance on the show but the 1st after the divorce from Ike.

Watch closely now

You'll observe a curious exchange of energy

Are you a figment of my imagination

Or am I one of yours?

Watch closely now

Are you watching me now?

Your eyes are like fingers

They're touching my body

And arousing my soul

Riding the passion arising inside me

How high can I go?

You're comin' with me girl, I'm gonna show you how

When it's scarey, don't look down

Watch closely now

Are you watching me now?

I see the hunger arise in your eyes

And it's urging me on

Higher and harder and faster and farther

Than I've ever gone

You're coming closer lady; don'tcha leave me now

We're gonna make it, don't look down

Maybe I'm takin' me too many chances

With no net at all

Maybe I'll teach you at least that you've

got to be free when you fall

Watch closely now

Are you watching me now?

I'm the master magician

Who's setting you free

From the lies you've been told

When you're breaking your back

Bring your last straw to me

I turn straw into gold

I'm gonna need you later, when you're not around

But I can take it, don't look down

Watch closely now...

Are you watching me now?

WOW! Thank you for posting! There is nothing I don't like about this clip. It's got Tina and Cher for god's sake. How FABULOUS is that? As for "Watch Closely Now" if ever there were a Diva that had the 'Nutbush' to take on a Bab's performance it would be Tina Turner and she rocks it.

I'll say this; the first 2 minutes and 52 seconds of "Watch Closely Now" aren;t some of my favorite Tina vocals, but when she flips that hair back at 2:53: Barbara who? Just kidding, Barbara Streisand and her version is very lovely indeed. Both Legendary Ladies.

No point comparing Streisand and Turner. They are both the greatest female singer of all time in their respective genre.

No. This was the second version of the Sonny and Cher show as I said. They had divorced, had separate shows that weren't ratings winners and reunited for this show, which ran from 76-77.
