01 - Tina Turner - Steamy Windows - Foreign Affair

Описание: “Steamy Windows” is a swaggering, blues‑soaked track from Tina Turner’s 1989 album “Foreign Affair”, built around a sultry groove and a playful narrative about passion unfolding away from prying eyes. The song leans heavily into its Southern rock influences, driven by a gritty guitar line and Tina’s unmistakable vocal fire, turning a simple metaphor into a full‑bodied celebration of desire and mischief. It became one of the album’s standout singles, showcasing her ability to fuse rock, soul and storytelling with effortless authority.

The song’s distinctive sound owes much to its writer, Tony Joe White, whose swamp‑rock sensibilities shaped the track’s humid, late‑night atmosphere. When Tina recorded it, she embraced that earthy tone so completely that White later joked she had taken his musical world and made it glamorous. During the “Foreign Affair” sessions in London, the studio team reportedly burst out laughing at how joyfully Tina leaned into the cheekier lines, revelling in the song’s sense of fun. The music video added another layer of attitude, with Tina performing against moody lighting and smoky backdrops, capturing the heat and humour that made the track such a fan favourite.
