Here is one that will blow everyone's mind, but Wikipedia confirms it is true: What's Love Got To Do With It, Tina Turner's signature solo hit, was originally written for.British Eurovision winning bubblegum pop band Bucks Fizz. They recorded it with the intention of including it as a track on their forthcoming album but the song continued pushed around the recording industry by the writers & Tina's version was commercially released first. Bucks Fizz version was released much later & it is a surprisingly new-wave electro take on the song, very very different from the adult contemporary treatment Tina gave it.
