By Tina Turner. By Holly Knight and Mike Chapman. Arranged by Sofia Zaitseva. 20th Century,Rock. Score and parts. 13 pages. Sofia Zaitseva #6268909. Published by Sofia Zaitseva (A0.902434)."The Best" is a song recorded by Bonnie Tyler for her seventh studio album, Hide Your Heart (1988). In the following year, the song was covered by Tina Turner for her seventh studio album, Foreign Affair. The song was written by Holly Knight and Mike Chapman. The Tina Turner cover has become an icon of rugby league. The saxophone solo on Turner's version is played by Edgar Winter. The song title is often called Simply the Best, reflecting a phrase in the chorus. This became so commonplace that the bracketed word 'Simply' was included in the titles for releases of some subsequent versions, and in the track listing for some Tina Turner compilation albums. Holly Knight told Songfacts: 'The Best' is one of those rare gems that's a very positive love song, without being cheesy - that's a tall order."
