  • Lady T has been my Portuguese Love since I was In Jr. High back in 81-82????I would have loved to see her in concert. I will research any live recordings of her in concert to see if I can get a DVD.

  • i used to play this every morning going to work

  • @LjTreble

    I use to listen to this every afternoon during my lunch break !

  • Who didn't like the sound of this lady?

    She was awesome! Way back in the day, we all thought she was black due to her soulful sound. It didn't matter what color she was as this lady rocked whatever she sang.

    I was shocked when I heard she had passed away, just as I was when I heard about Rick James. Together, they made one of the all time best songs in Fire and Desire.

    What a loss. Seems all the best singers are dying. Barry White, Luther, Rick and now Tina.

    Rest in peace, guys!

  • @crashrouge yeah the ONE VILLAGE IDIOT who doesn't like this song :)

  • My favorite Teena Marie song... that voice was divine. We will not forget how you blessed us, Lady Tee. RIP...

  • Teena Marie was a singer like no other. Saw her in concert a few times in her early days with Rick James. From the moment I first heard her I was hooked and bought every album/cassette I could. I will miss her. Rest in peace sweet Lady Tee.

  • I love this tune this is one of my old time favourites , Teena Marie was extremely talented with a one off voice, no can touch or compare....... and whether she was black or white made no difference to me, her voice is what made her where she is today, not her colour..

    May she R.I.P, she will be greatly missed, my thoughts go out to her daughter Alia who sadly found her mother dead....

    God be with you all and loved ones too.

  • R.I.P TEENA MARIE SMH

  • The FABULOUS LADY T. Such a beautiful song from such a talented lady and didn't get all the recognition she deserved. Alot of young kids today who claim to know everything about rap are clueless about her pioneering work in rap and hip hop. Study music history boys and girls, LEARN! Tina knew alot! RIP Teena !

Despite the color of her skin, that never stopped her from performing in front of countless crowds and bringing them to their feet with her boundless energy and that oh so soulful voice. Lady Tee maybe gone but, she will NEVER be forgotten. I bet she and Rick James are tearing it up in Heaven

  • @NIJEECAPRICORN20 No blue eyed soul is music from a Caucasian musician that sounds similar to black soul/R&B music. =)

  • this takes me back to the days me and my uncle use to hang out at verdells or chucks. R.I.P unc miss ya!!!

  • i love herrrr

  • The way this piece climbs & gently drops tempo, was such an anthem among dancers & challenging to dance to in a club scene with all the tempo jumps.

  • Such a bad remix of this recently.

    Wish people would keep the integrity of music.

    Someone has just made an awful retake of Rose royce - Still in love.

    Missy Elliot uses Teenas rap in one of her songs, Teena is one of the true Divas.

    Missy Elliot knows.

  • Comment removed

  • she humms words in this song better than the average singer of today can sing!

  • just list to this song's arrangement..OMFG!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Give it up for one the best singer songwriters of all time!! And a lady with real soul!

  • @coachkfan1

    She is the shit BUT you're trippin if you think she's the best singer of all time!!! I'm sorry but GTFOH, are you serious???? Of all time, hell nah!!!! No need to repsond lets agree to disagree...

  • @kittykittymewomeow2 I said ONE of the best singer SONGWRITERS. Maybe my comment wasn't completely clear, but we can still disagree if you would like.

  • @coachkfan1

    Just making sure hun because NO one and I mean NO ONE will EVER in this life time or the next will be able to touch STEVIE WONDER!!!! Now he IS the best, hands down!! Now I'm going to listen to some Stevie, later hun...

  • you could hear at the end the vinyl .top top tune .they dont make them like that anymore ...well hardly .i get lost in this song .

  • baddest song ever made...handz down!!!

  • This is The Girl'' Please Believe it'' Much Love!!!1

  • Teena Marie is Portuguese which would make her knowledgeable on that typw of love. I have seen her in concert twice & she is phenomenal!

  • @BootJazz2004

    She is NOT Portuguese she's white and she'll tell you that in a heart beat!!!!

  • @kittykittymewomeow2 she was portuguese,irish,italian and native american

  • @kittykittymewomeow2 she is portuguese get your info right even one her friends was on the news and said it she is.

  • this that real shit

  • yeah this is mine yeah babe i am jazzman is my girl

  • damn, Teena Marie has too too much soul to be a white woman lol! One of the best singers ever, period.

  • I never new Teena Marie was white.. (shes waaay b4 my time) so I always slightly curious as to why a black lady was singing about Portuguese men. :-P

  • portuguese love

  • I always assumed she's of Portugese descent herself.

  • I just knew it wasnt gonna be recorded loud enough,DAMN :(

  • mjjcng8958, don't get me wrong: i like this song... but.... it's not accurate from a historical point of view... french and italian and many other languages are forms of latin too and? would it make any sense if she sang a song about a portuguese love in italian? Or, if the song was called spanish love would it make any sense if she sang it in italian or portuguese? I don't think so.

  • CLASSIC.

  • u sway away with this music...lost in my own world...just lovely...

  • eu te amo

  • Timeless masterpiece!

  • Teena made me cry before I even feel in love wit anybody she sings with so much emotion you cant help to join her.

  • This song is still on of the smoothest love songs EVER made. Lady T you wear your crown well. All hail the queen.
