"I Don't Wanna Fight" is a song by American singer and actress Tina Turner. The track was written by British singer Lulu, her brother Billy Lawrie, and Steve DuBerry. The song was first offered to singer Sade, who sent it on to Turner. Turner recorded it in 1993 as part of the soundtrack for her autobiographical film, What's Love Got to Do with It. Lulu's version appears as a B-side to her 1993 single "How 'Bout Us" as well as on the 2003 album The Greatest Hits.

Featuring a wistful but resolute vocal set against a synthesizer line, the track was a substantial hit on both sides of the Atlantic, reaching No. 9 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and No. 7 on the UK Singles Chart. In Canada, it peaked at No. 1 for three weeks, and in Iceland, it reached No. 3. The song was nominated at the 36th Grammy Awards for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance and The Grammy Award for Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or for Television. It was also awarded one of BMI's Pop Songs Awards in 1994, honoring the songwriters, composers and music publishers of the song.[1] It was Turner's last single to chart in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100. Its accompanying music video received heavy rotation on MTV Europe.[2]

Critical reception

The song received positive reviews from music critics. Larry Flick from Billboard complimented Turner's "distinctive and worldly vocal delivery". He also noted that she makes her Virgin debut "with a shuffling pop/dance ditty" that stylistically lands somewhere between her comeback hit, "Let's Stay Together", and Amy Grant's "Baby Baby".[3] The Daily Vault called "I Don't Wanna Fight" a "cinematic epic", stating that it "shows Turner capable of riding today's wave effortlessly without losing herself in it".[4] Alan Jones from Music Week viewed the song as "a soulful shuffle" that "benefits from rich arrangements and one of Turner's more restrained, though distinctive, vocals."[5] A reviewer from People Magazine described "I Don't Wanna Fight" as an "ardent ballad" that proved that Turner had "mellowed".[6] Sam Wood of Philadelphia Inquirer called the song "overproduced".[7] James Hunter from Vibe stated that "when Turner tears up her voice at the top of the bridge, it's as involving as soulful pop music gets." He concluded, "This is one of the best records of her career".[8]
