"I
Don't Wanna Fight" is a song written by the British singer Lulu,
her brother Billy Lawrie and Steve DuBerry and
was first offered to singer Sade, who sent it on to Tina Turner.
Turner recorded it in 1993 as part of the soundtrack for her autobiographical
film, What's Love Got to Do with It.
Featuring a wistful but resolute vocal set against a melodic synthesizer line,
the track was a substantial hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching number
nine on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as number seven
on the UK Singles Chart. This is Turner's last top-ten
hit in the US. "I Don't Wanna Fight" was number one in Canada for
five weeks.[citation needed]
Lulu's
version appears as the b-side to her 1993 single "How 'Bout Us" as
well as on the 2003 albumThe Greatest Hits
