What to know about ‘Hot For You Baby’

The backstory:

‘Hot For You Baby,’ written by John Paul Young and produced by John Carter, was recorded during the 1984 ‘Private Dancer’ sessions but didn’t make the original release.

The track is described as a rowdy ’80s rock anthem that perfectly showcases Turner’s husky, unmistakable voice.

Turner’s ‘Private Dancer’ was a career-defining moment, peaking at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and producing her only Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, ‘What’s Love Got to Do With It.’ The album cemented Turner’s solo resurgence and legacy.

Turner’s catalog of timeless hits—from ‘Proud Mary’ to ‘We Don’t Need Another Hero’—has solidified her as one of the greatest entertainers in history.
