Teena Marie - A Rose By Any Other Name

[jmack3121]

this duet reminds me of her and rick cuz gerald sounds like rick..

[TheRegi47]

I agree with you, Teena is bad and so is her daughter, I love the Saphire CD

[bigbee7763]

Thanks for the info on Teena!!!! Funk, Funky, Funkiest!!!! Thats all I'm going to say!!!

[MrCarnubia]

teena marie been doing it long time before commercial bullshiters

[1luvkiki]

Teena is a diamond in the rough! not Mariah, Whitney, or anyone else compares to this funky soulstress!

We love you Teena! Keep doin' yo' thang! sista'!

[javon415]

1luvkikki

[bigbee7763]

where is Teena now? is she still making music? I love her music. so soulful and real. one of my favorite from her. need more music from her.

[1stboondockfan]

U gotta catch up. She released 3 albums this decade. All a success because she is comparable to no one else. Watch out for her daughter too cause she sounds like Teena.

[theresa2319]

[TriviaOne]

Teena Marie was 48 in 2004, when this album was released. God- given talent and blessed. Have followed her for some 30 years now. She has IT, as Smokey Robinson said.

[twentygirl79]

she gives true meaning to music

[kyemari]

Mom's W/Covina

[TheLadytee213]

In this video she got a young body

[robertsnowden19]

I was about to say the same thing! She was like 49 years old in this video and the make up makes her look half her age.

[teegotmuscle]

badd ass recoerd. the radio sleepin on this

[skyynett999]

That is one badass tone that she carries..that is just what i would like to wakeup to coming from the shower...

[D32007]

[gunit92003]

i love this fucking song...teena was hott in this video...r.i.p. gerald

[robertsnowden19]

She looks nice in this video! Good song!

[olyguy2000]

No reason to "miss her." She released AMAZING albums in 2008 and in 2009. She's still got it!! Check them out!

[teegotmuscle]

i agree. in fact, ive been tellin people that for years

[btinsley1]

listen to teena sing " if i were bell "acapella...she could givesome of these modern-day warblers a lesson in voice-control & pitch...

[eliseo200]

me gusta

[wsanders787]

yo tambien

[lpmagic4774]

it must be a crime to be her age and be that sexy. she is still very beautiful.

[DullardGuy]

mmhmm...she is sexy, sultry and soulful.  She bad...she bad! fo sho!

[PrincessCandy2682]

She seems like the older version of mariah. She could be Mariah's mom. I wish they would do a song together.

[UptownCeleb]

love this!!!!!

r.i.p gerald levert

[D32007]

Teena Marie was 50 when she recorded with the now late Gerald LeVert

[blewis9505]

Indescribeably delicious.

[shay1236]

dis is da jam

[anthonyk3430]

goosebumps when she sings my god

[kmsvlly]

teena has never been given the repect she desirves, lets not wait like we did for Michael.

[talk2cassynow]

I totally agree with you. It's such a shame she has never received a Grammy either.

[onomatopoeia2008]

I love this song!!!

[dannellster]

DeEastSanJo... "my tail kicked", seriously who the fuck says that? LAME!!!!!

[DeEastSanJo]

dannellster - I do. But I promise I'll never say "LAME!!!!!". Get a life.

[wtfelmo1]

you know she what i like in a Artiest! she sings about love without over doing it like some artiest do today by Adding sex all the time and talking about doing someone and making them call their name, im 17 and it's good music but we need more songs like Teena that's talking about real love in a nice clean way without over doing it she is really underrated!

[cadenaazteca]

Teena is unique, I have been her fan sice 13 yrs. old now I still listen to her in my home, my car her music is pleasant and she keeps it real. I love the way her music has a way to just be so smooth and untouchable a class all by her self.

I will be there at the concert to see her & Keith in August.

[brianna678beauty]

omg!!! i love this song!!! its my fav!!!

[DeEastSanJo]

nautilus55 - "choked out?" Get real. If you hate her voice that much why are you listening to her? Sounds like you enjoy ticking people off when you can do so anonymously. I bet you got your tail kicked arounf regularly at school...

[Misstee1089]

Go Teena and Gerald Levert (RIP). All the good music..Rick James, James Brown, Barry White, Luther Van Dross, Now Michael Jackson...RIP to all the greatest singers that gave us good music.

[JYJRRI]

Who said, Teena Marie can"t sing? Lets put it this way. She sends goose bumps all over my body. And thats saying allot., because I"am gay. Thank you. Turn up your hearing aid.

[creegal]

What a beautiful voice!

[Kali50067]

Why can't we all just appreciate a talented individual who has survived for years in this messed up industry and still has fans to support her and go to concerts and buy albums. Lady T, I have been a fan since the beginning. Thank You for putting your soul into music that some of us really enjoy.

[lisa3393]

Wow, just hearing this thank god for YT, Go Tina sing it girl, great song that got no play on the boob tube.....

[BooteyMasta]

She still looks like a hot MILF even after her early hits in the 80's,damm!

[darcellbios]

Sing it teena

[rayr23]

WoW. I'm just now seeing this and it was made in 2004. Come on BET.

[Minordd3]

Wow! I really miss G.L.

I wish Teena and Charlie Wilson would do a song. They did a live song on Steve Harvey one time and they sounded GREAT!!!

Both old school and still kicking it with great sounds.

[catejune17]

For those who think Teena can't sing. your just haters.Check out Fire and desire to name a few. This song is great. She is so soul filled. There are only 3 races white black and yellow. Everything else is just nationality . She is of the white race. Does it matter. We are all of the human race.

[OutdaWoodwurks]

She's not white. She is of Belgian, Portuguese, Irish, Italian, and Native American ancestry

[whouwit24]

I didn't know there was a video to this. Rarely do they ever show any videos for this type of music.

[tosborn59]

there's plenty of r&b videos but Teena singing with Gerald is a CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!1

[divagirl10]

you mayhate me to say this, but i don't like her voice. i think it sounds too pitchy and strained...she's got a grat range though! i've had many people who compared my voice to hers too....i don't think so. i really like mariah carey and whitney houston.

[BlaZeAsInFire]

You obviously don't know old school music...she is the best crooner...even if she is a white girl!

[divagirl10]

i do too know music. it's my opinion. shoot, i know people who don't think mariah and whitney can sing and they are the divas, same with aretha. and i grew up with those 2, not her. maybe if i grew up with her i'd like her more.

[patrick81790]

to each his (or her) own! You don't have to like her. the real deal is whether you know soul as if you have it grooving with friends and loved ones is what music is about not who you like or don't like.

[tosborn59]

part of what you say is word for word out of the book about GERALD, the same comment.Really!!

[BlaZeAsInFire]

First off you sound ignorant by what you said and you have some ignorant friends if they think mariah, whitney, or aretha can't sing thats why you keep getting THUMBS DOWN know your music b4 your talk and stop hating.

[Minordd3]

What?!!!!

I wouldn't say I hate you for you opinion. Cause no two (+) will always agree. But I have to say this woman is a great singer. While Mariah and Whitney have great voices also. They all have different styles.

[magitinacopper]

Well that is your opinion. I know how it feels to be compared in a way that you don't wanna be.

[popoc13]

SMOKEY&CLARAINE

[Minordd3]

I'd like to hear her and Charlie Wilson make a song together.

[dvlady51]

This is a pretty song. Teena And Gerald Levertt made great music together. I love Gerald. RIP my star.

[NuwaniDeNubianLadyIE]

pickney mekin' muzic !

rip gerald levert gone too soon he was my generation version of marvin gaye

[NPhillydogg67]

I can't believe with all of ther beautiful ballads she has, THIS is the only one she's captured in a video! love u Tee

[maryawhiting]

there will never be anyone like teena and rick in the music business EVER! Teena you have an angel's voice. Thank you for blessing us with your beautiful songs. And please, everyone dont forget she write her own songs. There is no better talent than hers.

[leester480]

this is the blackest white woman I've ever seen in life... sing teena..

[savagesamurai]

this proves the fact that Lady T continues tobe relavant today and not traped in the glory of her past like her other counterparts and she still keeps moving forward!!

[hsgamj]

[Collegeboundin09]

[tuFFstuFF16]

LT!

My friend and I are both 17 and are obsessed with Teena Marie, we know what's up and we're tired of Akon, Tpain, Kayne (and all the other over electronified music) that's being shoved down our throats nowadays--this is just a lamentation, but I wish there were more Teena Maries in mainstream music.

[screenonme]

listen to out on a limb,,,wow

[perdybirdie]

thank you! someone else notices that that carp is electronified!

[mlm313]

[onemictee]

white chocolate silky smooth voice, this lady's song are classics in the hood.

[cllamont]

The most underrated artist alive today - Lady T. The last real musical diva

[timbalock313]

Mary Brockert (Lady Tee) is the shizznittt!

[reflections209]

LADY T IS SO SEXY N FINE WOOOOOO

[1colie1994]

Teena is bbbbbbbbbbbaaaaaaaaaaaaadddddd­ddd!!! Love her!!

[PrettyToez07]

Somebody jacked my Teena Marie CD. I use to burn this CD up.

[oldufc]

first of all im black and i dont know why white people dont even know who tina is(at least my coworkers dont) but she is one of the best voices we have WHITE OR BLACK. Tina im in love with you badddddd

[alexanderdiaz1]

I totally agree. Teena is truly loved by the black and hispanic community. However, she is being rediscovered by a whole new younger generation of blacks, hispanic and whites. I am so happy about that, because they are finally being exposed to real artistry and music. Lady T is finally starting to get her dues, she was just honored by the R&B Foundation in November with Chaka Khan, it's on youtube, check it out. There's two parts...very emotional.

[1stboondockfan]

and one of most powerful songwriters too

[Teenasboy50]

O.K. First of all color should not matter. I'm white and have been into Teena not (Tina) the way you spelled it. Your into her huh well spell her name right. I met her 4 times as well. So please don't put color in a race all in it's self. Music is for everyone. Over all Teena is underated in the music industry period the end. A big WHITE Teena Marie fan Always and Forever!!!!

[glynnspinn]

i really love this song it really touches my heart its so loving and smooth and let me tell yall they tore this song up give them their props

[mlflady]

She's a pretty little babydoll with a girl's voice...He's raw brown sugar with a man's Fire !!!!! Luv then both...mmmmm-mmm

[magitinacopper]

Does anyone else miss BET's Midnight love?

[alexanderdiaz1]

Her new CD will be out in April, called 'Lover's Lane', she's has a duet with Howard Hewitt on this CD. I can't wait...I got to see her, Cameo, Howard Hewitt and Morris Day and the Time...Freakin' awesome performance by all...especially Lady T

[iloveteena]

go head gerald and teena!!! RIP! gerald

[aspeaks23]

This song makes me happy. And I feel like sangin'

[jaysua]

[blakvegas]

The Ivory Queen of Soul U betta Sing we all know she has a Ghetto Pass 4 life lol !!!

[54spiritedwill54]

I love this lady....

[alexanderdiaz1]

Teena Marie, she looks so beautiful in this video, and that voice - simply timeless. Gerald Levert, what can I say except that his is truly missed along with two others - Luther Vandross and Rick James.

[bevansmufc]

the queen and a prince makin music too feed the soul we lost another lady.t

[Grasscone]

Teena is so talented wit ha soulful voice, I miss Gerald, Rest in peace my friend.

[nitray123]

I love this song, I love Gerald Levert, missing u.

[allstatelegs]

This is the first time I have seen this video, it gives me chills. To listen to Gerald and Lady T sing this song, it fits them to a tee. A member of the R&B group I sang with, he and I were working on this song to do for a show. We did justice to this song also. Peace to all

[diamondcitycaprice]

she was w/ them briefly 4 1 album

[papi420chulo]

She Did 2 Albums on Cash Money "LA DONA" & "SAPPHIRE"...

[bs20sanders]

i never knew Teena Marie was with cash money records

[bklynwriter718]

I've been listening to this sister since the 70's...can you dig it...:) What a loss to the Soul industry by the loss of brother gerald...I totaly agree with cocteautwinsfan comments.

[allstatelegs]

Yes I remember when she first started to. Lady T is the real deal. I'm from the old school of music. Can't wait to see her in person.

[hilljennifer67]

She's not 54, she's 52

[LPZCINE]

when teena sings i can feel it in my soul.she is so so soulful love her!

[puff7712]

Thx 4 posting! Never knew there was a vid 4 this song. This is my S**T!!! R.I.P. Gerald

[Nwrig004]

Dude Teena is HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cocteautwinsfan]

talk about one of the TRUE uncrowned Divas when VH1 was doing the "Divas Live" thing. It's amazing how so many paperweight divas like Celine Dion, Jessica Simpson and Faith Hill get the glory. They're not bad for trained singers who try to imitate real singers like Aretha, Chaka, and Whitney, but Teena Marie is legit!!

[Bagface]

damn teena look good!

[blackrocker1]

Teena has ALWAYS looked good!

[thrilltech]

PHILADELPHIA - First recognized as an R&B talent in the 1970s when she signed a recording deal with Motown at the tender age of 19. Recognized for a nearly 30-year career that has included collaborations with industry giants from Rick James to Smokey Robinson, as well as a Grammy-nominated solo repertoire. Teena Marie is one of nine artists receiving a Pioneer Award from the Philadelphia-based Rhythm & Blues Foundation at a gala ceremony Tuesday night.

[alexanderdiaz1]

It's hard to believe that she is 54 years old, still has that voice that can melt even the hardest of hearts and she is still beautiful inside and out. The only other woman I can think of that equals Lady T's beauty, grace and voice at her age is Patti Labelle. These two DIVAS still got it going on.

[alexanderdiaz1]

Ooo Child there has never been or ever will be another white girl or woman who can sing soul music so convincingly like Lady T...I LOVE this woman. Her no. 1 fan. I go to ever concert she has in Las Vegas and California. And she never disappoints. NEVER!!!

[maryjaynegurl]

I love this lady....

[maryjaynegurl]

I love Teena Marie shes one of the best in the world, cant live without her mucic.

[biggnene]

oooooooooooooooo my

[meekandmild247]

That's my girl. Looking all fly with her old ass. Gerald too!

[TLDavis1230]

Teena Marie has always had skills. As for Gerald Levert, what needs to be said except RIP my brother. Before there were Jordin Sparks or the Pussycat Dolls or Kelly Clarkson, there was this girl. This is real music as far as I am concerned!!!

[squirrell57]

Brilliant..Love Teena Marie..Wish she would return to UK for gigs. I heard a rumour a new album soon...can anybody confirm???

[Londongirl8]

Yes, she's got a new CD coming out soon :)

[littlequeen64]

Much love Lady T! Thanks for the inspiration!I never see a bad comment for Teena Marie....she is loved by her fans and she loves them too.Theres nothing phoney about her,i do believe.....

[frnchmex70]

Teena looks good here - kudos to her stylist if she had one. She looks sexy cool and her make up compliments her beauty. You know she can get very funky with her style. Not here. Her voice has not changed - always classic soulbird.

[ericlohk]

This is a superb duet....but only once because Gerald has passed away -> Also notice Teena's guitar playing, which becomes very good complement of her soprano voice.

[Zaporiah]

i luv this song

[ljfelder]

Teena Marie sings like the voice of a beautiful bird.

[bigjenny28]

thank you 4 this song i was looking 4 a while bless you !!!!

[TamekaGilliam]

I Didn't even know they had a video for this song. RIP Gerald.

[cinnanmonbox]

Nice Song ! R.I.P. Levert I Will Always Love You !

[Kuzcofan1]

Embedding disabled by request <--I HATE that shit!

Now I guess imma have 2 make my OWN video...AGAIN!

[MsCWashington]

Thats the girl and has been for a long time take my word, and she hooked up with the man, thats HOT!!!!

[hunnybunny299197]

teena marie is da best!!!!

da song makes me want to play it over and over again!!! lolz

[theBKway]

how did levert Die I have been overseas and haven't heard much.

[oooprettybaby]

I think I heard it was from a medicine mix up. He was sick, and took medicine together that wasn't supposed to be taken together. Again, I am not sure about that, it's just the last thing I remember hearing in regards to how he died. The news may have been updated, I just haven't checked.

[demi9601]

I it was an accident due to medicine.

[lilmama817]

R i P Levert! ~beautiful song~

[dnizzler]

my god tena marie is still so fuckin sexy, look at those legs, i want her biddy

[dafreshes23]

this song is wonderful

[aspeaks23]

This song makes me wanna sang.....

[Woo88]
