Tenia was a black woman in a white woman body with pure soul. Always brought her A game since the 70s.. the only white woman who didn't need a ghetto card. Her voice was her ticket Everytime. Gerald the Crooner as always bring the house down.
Why this song didn't get more air play simply confuses me! This was such a beautiful song and done by two legends that are missed dearly. The harmony in this song is unbelievable and can't be duplicated again! Wow!
Gerald Levert was one the first singer to get inducted into RnB Hall of Fame when first introduced in 2013 and rightly so. It's about time they induct Lady T too.
God I miss her so much...Teena was such a masterful composer, so passionate. My favorite female composer of all time...just thinking about her gets trhe tear flowing...*sniff* R.I.P. Lady T Mx
I actually wrote a letter to the Rock and Roll HOF, about a month before her passing stating she should be included. I don't know why I did that, just had a bad feeling and thought she should be recognized for contribution to musical arts. RIP Lady T and Big Gerald.
THESE TWO, UM, UM, TWO LEGENDS ENOUGH SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You cried, I'm such a big fan, my friends were calling me offering me their condolences, I swear I was heartbroken 💔 ..., they were two of the best, both were at the top of their game, they will be missed,
Surely this woman has the soul of Black woman with a voice like that, incredible and I mean that with the utmost respect for her being a great singer for a white woman who entered the black arena of soul music and went to the top,.glad I had one of her albums back in the day
“Never gonna letcha go...Never never let me go!” Y’all better sang! Rise in Power Teena and Gerald! Teena Marie didn’t have that many duets with male vocalists outside of Rick James.
I swear Teena has to have one of the best voices of any female R&B singers ever! She has to easily be top 5, especially when you consider her recorded songs and live performances. It’s hard to find a live performance that competes with her and Rick James’s “Fire & Desire” live performance on BET… Yes, the one where he said the infamous “I’m Rick James Bitch!!!” Teena was definitely a “1 of 1” and thankfully there are videos to show her singing because if there weren’t, 99 out of 100 people would’ve believed she was Black lol. This woman’s voice could persuade a whale to purchase a bottled water lol. In my opinion, she’s never received the recognition she deserves for creating timeless music. Yes, from the sound of the beat you can pretty much tell when the song was created, but her voice is timeless because it sounds great back then and would be just as great had it been on a song that dropped tomorrow.
I am a Hispanic in the Alamo City and my siblings think I'm crazy but Teena Marie had me "Since Day One" in 1983 with her Robbery LP ever since then, I begin to purchase her music albums and she easily "robbed" my heart away. I used to think that when Purple Rain came out that she would have been excellent opposite Prince or even the Time at that time because she knew how to work a stage, she was white, she loved sophisticated funk and was electrifying on her guitar . I still promote her music
This proves that soul is universal, i wouldn care if she was green her music touch my spirit and soul and in the end thats all that matters how her music moved you RIP TO TWO GREATS LADY T AND GERALD LEVERT
There's one thing, there's one thing, there's one thing I know, a rose is a rose is a rose is a rose, there's no other flower in my heart that grows, a rose is a rose... Can't get that last part out of my head. R.I.P. Teena & Gerald. I miss them greatly. Even if it's years after they're gone I'm so glad I stumbled across such a awesome duet.
Tina "Vanilla Child" Marie initially wanted Rick James to sing this song with her, but he was ill at the time. Gerald still delivered and it's a beautiful song. I have this CD in my music collection. ❤🎉❤
