[TyjaluvsChaka]

Chaka runs the gamut on this one!!! Sweet,Sexy Sassy,Innocent,Jaded,Young,Anc­ient,Naive,All-Knowing,Earthy,­Sophisticated,Funky,Classy but always SOULFUL!!! I would love for her to remake ERES TU!!! I know she would kill it!!! Such A beautiful song & the perfect vehicle for the perfect "Voice"!!!

[myhappyness1]

Oh yes!!! This is great classic music that will live on forever. Brings back some powerfully good memories of times that were perfect in my mind. My mom would play this song & many more greats every evening. This is the best music my ears have heard. Beautiful & everlasting perfection that came from placing words into a song & composing music that fits the song like a glove, tightly on a hand. Amazingly awesome!

[OGGilmoregirlz1]

One of my favorites. Years ago my sister sang this song in our band .. and she did have the chops for it. Our harmonies were compared to the Emotions. Memories!!!!

[michaele1953]

Amongst my top ten of all time. Sooooooo right.

[hiphopgranni]

So glad I got everything you ever recorded...love me some Chaka!

[jonesinthehouse]

Yeah this is a diamond in the rough. If you didn't follow Chaka's music, you wouldn't know about this one. Smokin Room is one of my favorites.

[abetterfoto]

Sooo glad to hear this song! Thank you for posting..gotta play it again

[TheBacmaster]

@abetterfoto This video was requested and made for one of my subscribers. We should thank her also...

It was her idea. Yes, I do take any requests. Thank you

Regards from,

Joe

[rumiguy1]

you are right, this song is a gem, a diamond....

[abrakadebra100]

oh yeah I know about this song

[myhappyness1]

I LOVE this song. I hadn't heard it in years. Thank God for youtube. I played it all the way to & from work. I think this song is soft & gentle to the heart & soul. This is the kind of music I like to listen to when I take a hot bubble bath with candle lights only & a glass or 2 of something "relaxing". This is my kind of music that I think about things to, past, present & future. It's amazing what music can do to feed the soul & give your thoughts a place to rest & refresh & start anew.

[ohc3rd1]

@myhappyness1 @myhappyness1 @myhappyness1 You should listen to "Ain't Nothing But a Maybe" from the same album. Also the slow cuts from Teen Maire's "Wild But Peaceful Album" (Deja Vu, I'm Gonna Have My Cake & Eat It Too, etc) are nice to listen to. Don't forget "Cloudy" by AWB. I hate that Rufus broke up. CK seemed to lose something with the R & B after that although her jazz music was on hit. What say you?

[myhappyness1]

@ohc3rd1 I will do that & let you know my comment. Thanks alot. Have a good night & day 2mor. Teena Marie was a gift to the music industry. Her talent was pure as the white snow. She'll definitely be missed, but the memories & her gift to us in song, will be cherished & live on forever. That's what good talent & music does. I "LOVE" me some Chaka Khan. I take her music with me everywhere I go except for church. Thanks again.

[qstar304]

I THINK I PUT A HOLE IN THIS SONG I PLAYED IT SO MUCH!! ~~~ NOT TO MANY FOLKS KNOW ABOUT THIS SONG. MY FAVORITE BY MY GIRL

[TheBacmaster]

@qstar304 Not this generation! Nobody even comes close to Chaka Khan! She is just beautiful!!!

[nillawafah47]

Real feel good music. Good for my heart and soul.

[myhappyness1]

Amazing talent & music. Chaka Khan reigns #1 now & forever. I love my old school music because it has the purity of real talent & real feelings thought out carefully & put to music. It's angelic when it meets the ears & goes down & sparkle the soul with a feeling that can't be described sometimes. Just wonderful!!!

[ohc3rd1]

I must say that hearing this took me back to a time in my life when things weren't perfect, but it seemed like there was an atmosphere of love. I know I can't go back, but it's nice to look back and remember.

[myhappyness1]

@ohc3rd1 Ooh I know what you mean & that's what I'm doing these days. I love good talent combined with good music. Old school has everything "m looking for when Im in a certain mood & need that upward push. This music hits the spot everytime. Sometimes I cry, laugh, dream, enjoy & always be greatful for tis music. Memories are some kind of wonderful & some are sad but that's okay because I lived & made it through by the grace of God. Blessings to old school music & memories.
