@sylky2cu Johnny was okay but he is the same nowhere near Rick James. Johnny hollered hi9s part..Rick James belted long and strong notes without even screaming there is a difference. Teena Marie is known for high head register
A respectable version of a classic.. Of course it's not better than the original.. Johnny & Coko would most assuredly agree.. Doesn't mean this version is bad... Keep doing covers it keeps the older songs alive..
This version is alright. But, in my opinion it does not even compare to the RICK AND TEENA version of this song. Some songs don't need to be remade. They own this song and they are not just singing they are expressing a real love that they had for each other. The original sends chills up my spine. PERIOD
I agree keke wyatt can sing but does not have the voice for this song. Coko can sing her high notes better in her chest then Keke. And on if Only you Knew Coko has the better vocal power and control.
@ Homipside No I'm not smoking anything! I see that u have not seen the live video of keke wyatt singing If Only U Knew!!! She hit the high notes just as Mz. Patti would. Just as I have said KeKe Wyatt does not her the props as she should!! Her range to me is better than CoKo's, just in her songs she has not used them but she has it!!!! Check out that video live in NYC tell me what u think. Johnny n CoKo did a fine job just like Avant n Keke they just fit together!

I really love this version better than the Rick James/ Teena Marie version and i didn't think it could be done any better than the original. but Johnny and coko have done an awsesome job. ne of my most favourite songs of all time
@MsPeewee59 what have you been smoking? this version is just ok. I dont care who get to sing this song, it will NEVER be done better than the original!!!!
Absolutely brilliant.......Johnny is a legend.......& That's the way 'Coko' should sing....I know she has the ability...Thats the best i've heard her sing...
This is no tribute to Teena........no one can compare to her, nor should they "cover" her songs!

JOHNNY GILL AND COKO SING WITH SO MUCH MORE EMOTION IN THEIR VERSION THAN THE ORIGINAL. WHICH IS WHY THIS VERSION IS BETTER.

Surely not better than the Rick and Teena. However if I heard this version first I would have not been mad at all. Great cover.

JG was strong but Coko was ok.....think Faith Hill might be able to handle Lady T's part better.

@Mz9224 Keke Wyatt?!?!?!? What are you smoking? Keky Wyatt is a great singer, but she does NOT have the vocal capabilities to pull this one off.

i like both johnny & coko, but some songs don't need to be re-done. teena & rick sang it - nothing else can be added to their performances
