Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe have dressed this track in their signature style, seamlessly blending Turner’s powerfully raw vocals with synth-pop beats. “We had the joy of working with Tina in the mid-90s on our song Confidential and now it’s a pleasure to be able to remix this funky song from the 80s with an awesome vocal from Tina,” the duo shared.

Hot For You Baby was written by Australian singer John Paul Young and produced by John Carter. Originally intended as an album track, it was believed to be lost to time.

Last month, Private Dancer (40th Anniversary Edition) was released in several formats including a 5CD/Blu-ray set, as well as a 2CD version.  A striking 1LP picture disc, featuring the official UK/EU cover on one side and the US cover on the other, was also announced alongside a limited-edition 1LP pearl vinyl.

Released in May 1984, Private Dancer marked Turner’s triumphant comeback, becoming a cultural phenomenon. The 5x platinum record peaked at No.2 on the UK Albums Chart, No.3 and No.1 on the Billboard 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts.

Turner would go on to bring home four Grammy Award wins: Best Female Rock Vocal Performance for Better Be Good To Me and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, Record of the Year, as well as Song of the Year for What’s Love Got To Do With It?
