Twenty Four Seven

Twenty Four Seven is the tenth and final solo studio album by singer Tina Turner. First released by Parlophone in Europe in October 1999, it received a North American release through Virgin Records in February 2000. As with her previous album Wildest Dreams (1996), Turner worked with a small team of British producers on the album, including Mark Taylor, Brian Rawling, Johnny Douglas, Terry Britten and production team Absolute. Singer Bryan Adams appears on both the title track and "Without You". The album received a mixed reception from critics, many of whom praised Turner's vocal performance but found the material too formulaic. A commercial success, it topped the albums charts in Switzerland and reached the top ten on most of the charts it appeared on. In the United States, Twenty Four Seven scored Turner her biggest first week sales by then. Lead single "When the Heartache Is Over" became a top-ten hit, while the Twenty Four Seven Tour emerged as the highest-grossing tour of 2000. Twenty Four Seven was Turner's last full-length studio album before her retirement from recording in 2000 and her death in 2023. Promotion Several singles were released in support of the album. Twenty Four Seven was preceded by lead single "When the Heartache Is Over", released in October 1999. Written by Graham Stack and John Reid, the dance pop song became a considerable hit both on the pop and dance charts, reaching the top ten in Finland and the United Kingdom, as well as the top twenty in Flemish Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. It also peaked at number three on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs, becoming Turner's biggest hit on that chart since 1984's "Let's Stay Together".
