Tina Turner Posthumously Earns A New Hit Song
Years after her passing, Tina Turner remains a beloved superstar, one recognized almost as much for her perseverance and strength as for her music. Fans continue to celebrate her catalog in all kinds of ways, sometimes focusing on one beloved compilation, or a particular full-length that feels especially meaningful. But thanks to Record Store Day, the icon returns to the spotlight with a hit single — and she even claims a new top 40 smash on more than one chart in the United Kingdom this frame.
Turner's duet with Bryan Adams, 'It's Only Love,' appears as a winner on multiple U.K. charts this frame. The rock duet launches at No. 27 on both the Official Physical Singles and Official Vinyl Singles charts, many years after it was first unveiled.
The song also appears on a broader ranking, the Official Singles Sales chart, which includes all formats and is not limited by genre or platform. 'It's Only Love' kicks off its initial run on that tally at No. 50.
Adams is one of dozens of artists who joined in on the fun for Record Store Day 2025, a global initiative designed to bring fans back into independent music stores. As part of the celebration, many artists release either brand new tracks or reissue favorites on exclusive, collectible formats.
For his part, Adams re-released 'It's Only Love' on a seven-inch vinyl. The special edition of the cut features two mixes: a rock-forward take, while the other — titled the 'Midnight Mix' — is stripped back to highlight Turner's powerhouse vocals.
'It's Only Love' was originally released in 1985, almost exactly 40 years ago. The track served as one of the singles from Adams's album Reckless, which helped define the sound of mid-'80s rock. The hard-charging cut originally peaked at No. 29 on the Official Singles chart in the U.K. and rose even higher in the U.S., perching at No. 15 on the Hot 100.
The duet also earned Turner and Adams a Grammy nomination for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal. That honor ultimately went to Dire Straits, but the nod itself was another sign of how huge the track was at the time.
This latest hit gives Turner her twelfth placement on the Official Singles Sales chart. By comparison, Adams has reached that tally only five times. On the Official Physical Singles chart, however, he holds the edge, with 18 successes, while Turner hits a new milestone with her tenth showing, this one arriving posthumously.

My awakening: How Gen Z's relationship with religion is changing
When someone told me it was going to be like the Catholic version of Woodstock, I laughed. But as soon as I got there, I thought: OK, now I get it! As I walked through the 237-acre Tor Vergata grounds just 10 miles east of Rome, around me were hundreds of thousands of young people from all over the world, setting up their tents, blowing up air beds, singing and dancing as Christian music pumped from the speakers. It was a hot Roman day, around 90 degrees, and some of these pilgrims had walked for up to eight hours to get here. But still, the heat was no deterrent to the joy in the air. Advertisement What was extraordinary about this event, the Jubilee of Youth, was that while there were well-known Christian artists performing, the young people hadn't come to see them. They were waiting to pray. Yes — pray! And when, at 7:30 p.m., the roar of a helicopter was heard overhead, the crowd erupted. The white papal chopper had made the short journey from the Vatican and circled the crowd twice. 'Viva Papa,' they cheered. Throwing up clouds of dust, the chopper was glowing in the evening sun as it landed. Then on the large screens, people watched as Pope Leo XIV — the first American pope — emerged and boarded the Mercedes Popemobile. Every morning, the NY POSTcast offers a deep dive into the headlines with the Post's signature mix of politics, business, pop culture, true crime and everything in between. Subscribe here! 'Incredibly moving' Advertisement After weaving through the crowd, going back and forth blessing the sea of people on either side, the pope took to the stage and led a two-hour, deeply spiritual prayer vigil. The moment Pope Leo brought out the Eucharist, what Catholics believe is the real body of Jesus in the bread, 1 million young people suddenly fell silent, many on their knees with their eyes closed. Fr. Vincent Bernhard, the university chaplain at NYU, who was there leading a pilgrimage of young men from across the US, was moved by that moment: 'It was so silent you could hear a pin drop. When I looked around, you could see everyone kneeling and looking in one direction. It was incredibly moving. Only the pope could do that. Make everyone stop and look towards Jesus.' Something is changing in society when it comes to Gen Z and their relationship with religion. Their parents may have drifted from the Church — because of scandals, laziness, shifting priorities, etc. Advertisement But from the young people I spoke to at Tor Vergata, I got a sense they are searching for deeper answers to life's oldest questions. This is something Pope Leo spoke to directly from the stage: 'There is a burning question in our hearts, a need for truth that we cannot ignore, which leads us to ask ourselves: What is true happiness? What is the true meaning of life? . . . Jesus is our hope.' True meaning Indeed, from traveling the world covering the Catholic Church and people's relationship with faith for EWTN, I think young people — especially — have been fed the lie that they'll find fulfillment in fame, fortune and followers. Advertisement They've been encouraged to hang their identity on their career, on their social-media persona, and on their popularity. And while these things might offer instant, short-term gratification, more and more young people seem to be realizing that they don't lead to lasting, meaningful fulfillment. When the three F's disappear — fame, fortune, followers — what gives your life fulfillment and meaning? Young people today are looking for meaning, and many are finding it in the tradition, culture and beauty of the Catholic Church. For years it hasn't been 'cool' to be Catholic, or even easy to say you believe in God. But as with anything pushed aside or suppressed, sometimes the opposite happens — it re-emerges as something unexpected, something different. Something countercultural that intrigues young people and starts to draw them in again. Cue the Jubilee of Youth, and a million young people on their knees in a field outside of Rome. Something profound is drawing them, and with the Catholic Church having a new, relatively young and timely pope who talks about social media, algorithms, and artificial intelligence, young people are engaged. Found a home As darkness fell over Tor Vergata, the choir sang, 'Jesus Christ, you are my life,' as the papal helicopter once again roared into the air and turned back toward Vatican City. One of the most powerful messages the pope left the young people with was, 'Aspire to great things, to holiness, wherever you are. Do not settle for less.' One of the young men with Fr. Vincent on pilgrimage was 19-year-old Marco Terrizzi from Illinois. He recently came into the faith and told me, 'This was sensational. I truly feel changed forever. I feel like I've found my forever home in the Catholic Church.' Colm Flynn is a correspondent for EWTN, global Catholic television.

29 Cool TikTok Products That Deserve Your Attention
Wonderskin's transfer-proof lip stain I'm sure you've seen an influencer or two pop on their lips in the beginning of a "get ready with me" that initially left you thinking, "What on earth?!" Sure, it looks a little wacky for a minute, but when you wipe it off, it leaves a gorgeous stain that'll last for up to 10 hours of yapping, snacking, and puckering. A fan-fave Biodance hydrating overnight mask because everyone's skin needs a little TLC, and there's nothing quite like waking up feeling hydrated and refreshed. It's packed with special forms of hyaluronic acid and collagen that penetrate more deeply to maximize product absorption, and you can even *see* it get to work as the sheet becomes transparent. Not only will you look glowy and moisturized, but this mask can help refine enlarged pores, enhance skin elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. A six-pack of soda can lids with straws because everything just tastes better through a straw, *and* these are reusable, so no need to feel sorry for the turtles. And BTW, I'm not sure if you've ever thought about it, but do you really know where that can's lid has been before you put your lips on it? That *icky* thought kinda ruins the most satisfying and crispy "ahhh" after the first sip. A hands-free neck fan to answer your sweaty prayers during those hotter months when your office's AC keeps breaking down. And since this is blade-free, you can finally wear your hair down at the amusement park and not risk it getting caught in the fan. It offers 360-degree airflow to keep your entire neck and face cool — and did I mention it can run up to 16 hours?? A flower vase puzzle for any jigsaw masters who never shy away from a challenge. And the *ultimate* reward for finishing this 160-piece puzzle: Now you'll have the coolest conversation starter (and best bragging opportunity) just sitting in your living room. A bag of Drizzilicious mini rice cakes for anyone who might have a bit of an *insatiable* sweet tooth and loves to try a hot new goodie. These mini rice cakes allow you to relish some of the ultimate sweet treat flavors — like birthday cake and French toast — without leaving the comfort of your home. Bonus points: These yummy bites are made with quinoa, chia seeds, and flax seeds! Or a bag of Swedish candy mix because people on TikTok cannot get enough of the uniquely soft "Bubs" and mouthwatering sour skulls. I can't tell you how many times I've drooled over these delicious-looking bites through my phone! Reviewers say these have a fluffier texture and more natural flavor than American candy. A shower lamp allowing you to have a main character moment in your shower under ~moody~ lighting while you process something deep. It's water resistant and rechargeable, so you can finally have the most elite shower setup without worrying about causing a spark show. A Stanley cup snack tray that'll pair perfectly with your emotional support water bottle that you can't bear to leave the house without. Now there's no need to *ever* leave, because you can spend every night cuddled up with your Stanley and some good 'ol refreshments while catching up on your favorite show. And with four separate compartments, you can keep your sweet and salty snacks from ~mingling~, because there's no talking during this screening.

The compact design makes it so easy to pop in your bag and bring with you for any on-the-go touch-ups, taking away the day's grease but never your ✨ glow.✨ An adorable ballet slipper makeup pouch to keep all of your random free-floating lippies in your purse accessible — and so you don't throw *another* gloss in your bag because you can't remember if you left one in there.

A "flossing" toothbrush in case you can't remember to floss as frequently as you tell your dentist you do at your cleanings — this toothbrush has ultra-thin "floss" bristles that can get out all those bits of broccoli to help cover for your more forgetful nights. Your shiny, clean teeth will approve of the message "Work smarter, not harder." A self-heating ice cream scoop, because it's a universal experience: You set the ice cream out to thaw about 10 minutes before you want to actually have somehow, it's still frozen solid, and you're getting tempted to just microwave it. This scoop heats up when you press the button to make ice cream scooping as easy as pie — ooooh, that would be good with this vanilla bean! A "Gracula" garlic crusher for anyone with a sophisticated palate who has never even considered mumbling the phrase, "That's too much garlic."

It's so much easier than a traditional curler, since this gadget will perfectly wrap up your locks so you don't have to bend your elbow and crane your neck.

Whip out this book anytime you want to "ignore reality," like when it's time to start applying for jobs or that flight anxiety is really getting to ya. A set of darling hair-tie bracelets because we all know the pain of wanting to put your hair up but you don't have an elastic on you. These'll just look like a cute bracelet matching your 'fit instead of an ugly black band that clashes; plus, reviewers say the hold is strong (without being damaging) and great for both thin *and* thick hair!

The Clue: This Wordle has far more consonants than vowels. Okay, spoilers below! The answer is coming! . . . Every day I check Wordle Bot to help analyze my guessing game. You can check your Wordles with Wordle Bot right here. DRONE was actually a fantastic opening guess today, leaving me with a yellow and green box and just 19 remaining words. At first, I thought STORY might be the Wordle. I was so close! Only two words remained and I debated between STORK and STORM. I was pretty sure we'd had STORM in the past, however, so I went with STORK and lucky for me, I was right! This Wordle made me think of the film Children Of Men, a fantastic movie that I just wrote about recently. The film is about a dystopian future where women are no longer able to have babies. There's a joke that Michael Caine's character, Jasper, tells. It goes like this: I get 1 point for guessing in three and 1 point for beating the Bot. The Bot gets -1 for guessing in five (something we rarely see!) and -1 for losing to me. At last, I take the lead in August, making up for a disastrous start to the month. Erik: 0 points Wordle Bot: -1 points The word "stork" comes from Old English storc, which is of Germanic origin. It is related to Old High German storah and Middle Dutch storc. The word likely imitates the bird's call or is derived from a root meaning "stiff" or "rigid," possibly referring to the bird's stiff-legged stance. The ultimate origin is uncertain, but it is common across Germanic languages. Be sure to follow me for all your daily puzzle-solving guides, TV show and movie reviews and more here on this blog!
