"Girls" is a single released by American Grammy Award-winning rock/R&B singer Tina Turner, from her 1986 album Break Every Rule. This song was written by David Bowie and Erdal Kizilcay and produced by Terry Britten. Phil Collins plays drums on the recording. The song, however, did not crack the US Top 40.
Bowie later recorded two different versions of the song himself during the Never Let Me Down sessions, one with vocals in English and another with vocals in Japanese. Both versions appeared as B-sides for different formats of the "Time Will Crawl" single in 1987.
[edit] Other releases
- A live version by Tina Turner was released on the album Tina Live in Europe in 1988.
- An "extended edit" of Bowie's English-language version appeared as a bonus track on the 1995 Virgin Records reissue of Never Let Me Down.
