  • "Don't Turn Around" is a popular song written by Diane Warren and Albert Hammond. It was originally recorded by Tina Turner as the B-side to the single "Typical Male" in 1986. Warren is said to have been disappointed that Turner's record company treated the song as a B-side and never included it on one of her albums. It has been covered by a number of artists. Kim Goody released a single version in 1987. Despite being featured in several episodes of her Saturday morning show No. 73, the song failed to get into the top 100 in the UK chart. Bonnie Tyler released her version on her 1988 album Notes from America, while soul singer Luther Ingram had a U.S. #55 R&B hit with his interpretation. Aswad heard Ingram's version and made a cover of it, taking the song to #1 on the UK singles chart in March 1988. This version also reached #45 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart that same year. Loretta Chandler also sung this song on an episode of the 1980's TV show Fame. In 1990, a lesser known rock band Eyes, that reminds one of the "hair band" days, covered the song as well on their self titled album, under the Curb Records label. Although this album is out in the market, very little other information is out on the band. In 1992, Neil Diamond recorded a version of "Don't Turn Around", which made the Top 20 on the Adult Contemporary chart. Two years later, in 1994, Swedish pop group Ace of Base took a minor key version of the song to #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and to #5 in the UK.
  • Don't Turn Around é uma música popular composta por Diane Warren e Albert Hammond. Foi originalmente gravada por Tina Turner mas, para espanto, lançada como b-side do single "Typical Male" em 1986. Diane admitiu mais tarde ter ficado desapontada com a gravadora de Tina, pois não lhe deu o valor devido ao tratá-la como b-side em vez de incluí-la como uma canção oficial do album "Break Every Rule". Foi regravada por uma série de artistas. Bonnie Tyler lançou a sua versão no CD "Notes From América" de 1988, enquanto a cantora soul norte-americana Luther Ingram transformou-a num hit ao alcançar a posição #55 R&B na Billboard Hot 100. A banda de reggae Aswad ouviu a versão de Ingram e fez um cover dela, chegando a marcar a primeira posição no hit parade da Inglaterra em março de 1988. A mesma versão também marcou #45 na Billboard R&B singles chart no mesmo ano. Em 1992, Neil Diamond gravou mais outra versão de "Don't Turn Around", que chegou ao Top #20 Adult Comtemporary Chart da Billboard nos Estados Unidos. Dois anos depois, em 1994, o grupo pop sueco Ace of Base conseguiu a proeza do ranking #04 na Billboard Hot 100 e #5 nas rádios da Inglaterra.
