Best Cher Song
Cherilyn Sarkisian LaPiere Bono Allman -- better known to the world simply as Cher -- is a true American entertainment icon. She worked her way up from a back-up singer to the Ronettes and the Righteous Brothers, launched her career as one-half of a Hollywood power couple, and then soared even higher as a solo musical artist and award-winning actress. Looking for the only recording artist to have a hit records for six consecutive decades? It's Cher, bitch! And now as we enter Cher's seventh decade as a working legend, the Great Pop Culture Debate wants to ask: what IS the best Cher song of all time? Songs discussed: Dark Lady, If I Could Turn Back Time, Strong Enough, Believe, Gypsies Tramps & Thieves, Half Breed, Take Me Home, Waking in Memphis, Song for the Lonely, Save Up All Your Tears, The Way of Love, You Haven’t Seen the Last of Me, Just Like Jesse James, and more.
Join Host Eric Rezsnyak, panelists Bob Erlenback and Jonny Minogue, and EXTRA special guest star Cher impersonator Aggy Dune as they discuss and debate the very best songs from the decades-spanning career of the one, the only: CHER.
