Background and release
From 1976, Arena was a regular on Australian television show Young Talent Time. She left the show in October 1983, ahead of her 16th birthday. After leaving the show, Tina began playing music with Young Talent Time's floor manager Greg Petherick and the pair recorded some demos that were submitted to record labels. Arena was eventually signed as the first artist on Brian Cadd's new label Graffiti Records. Cadd bought the rights to a song called "Turn Up the Beat", which Arena liked because "it was up-tempo and fun, a song about how sometimes music is more important that just about anything else".[2]
A music video was released, but with the song peaking at number 92, the planned album was scrapped.
