Loved Square Biz - but Lady T could always deliver her own soulful soul. Needed some help with wardrobe though. I did see her in concert once. Brought us all up and then ended with Casanova Brown.
To the idiot that made the comment about the existence of angels, heaven and santa, I never mentioned any of those things, and your "assertion" that I did was stupid! I said your comment was insensitive because the woman was gone now, at least show her some respect. Stop wasting my time.
Thank God this woman came out in a time when it wasn't all about being half-naked. It was just all about talent, and this woman is the epitome of T-A-L-E-N-T!!!!!! Bless her soul!!!!!
Lady T!!! I as all your fans will miss you, so much. You touched alot of people with that soulful voice and all the emotion you put into it. Rest peacefully,
To me how I feel about "Lady T"...She will always be that voice that makes me smile and bring back the best memories growing up to her lyrics...no other singer will take her place in my heart.
she's the only white woman singer that all black people I know luv....(and everyone compares my voice to her. which is huge compliment. can't be as good asher.)
This just makes me smile. When I first heard this cd. I was like "Damn, my girl is BACK" Better by far than anything on radio at that time. I still play this 3 years later. I felt like a part of me died with her.
THAT'S ONE BAD AZZ CHICK, I love tha Sh*t out of Teena......D*mn! the good ones leave too soon.......A DIAMOND in tha RUFF......Str8 Raw Talent all the way around, lyrically, technically, instrumentally...........R.I.P. "Lady T" Thank you for the musical treasures.
real music from a woman born with vocal talent...now a days local vocals can't touch Mz. T....love yah music....this music will be played for generations to come..... real music.....
THANKS FOR POSTING. I MISSED THIS ONE ON APOLLO. TEENA'S VOICE WAS RARE.,DIFFERENT, UNIQUE. TEENA LOOK GREAT CARE OF HER VOICE. AFTER ALL THESE HER VOICE WAS STILL AMAZING.
We love you Teena. I think your voice got better and better over the years if that was possible. You have my highest respect--you were always true to yourself.
Most good artist when viewed live are somewhat of a let down because you just can't reproduce on stage what was produced in a studio. But Teena Marie (as this live performance proves) surpasses the recorded version of this hit song. Her voice has gotten better with time. And she still moves as if she's in high school. What I love most about her she's so at home and relaxed with who she is and what she does. We are all the better for having known her. RIP Lady "T".
If this sista wasn't soul I don't know what is! This sista has swag!!! From the coat to the hat to the lean!!!! Oh and the voice! Color what????? Nuf Said!!!
She threw it out the park with this performance... Just gave me the chills too. same voice and stage performance as back in the day. She was truly a true artist.. I am so sad about her passing.. The world has losted another one of the great, just so sad..
The world lost another treasure with Teena's passing. A voice so silky smooth and clear as a bell. This song sends shivers up and down my spine. I can guess the Heavenly Choir is singing " Lady Tee is in the house" We'll miss you.
THIS SISTA SWAGGA IS ON 1 TRILLION!!! I USED TO WATCH THIS VID N GET SERIOUS CHILLS, I LOVE HER SOOOO MUCH!! SHE IS AN ICON..CHECK OUT THE ENSEMBLE THO, CLEANER THAN A BROKE DICK DOG!!!
This is a gigantic... and I mean a humongous loss to the music industry. The ripple effect of her leaving will be felt years to come. A void is is there that cannot be filled. Sitting here in Tokyo I am still in shock & have been holding back writing about her until In am ready. So I am going to say this to all of the so called R& B singers of today..pre-packaged with no true value proposition in your music..go back, listen,watch her videos,take a lesson or go get a job at UPS,
just too many great ones, too soon! Jackson, Brown, Marie, Vandross ,G Levert, James, Pendergrass. -Maestro Barry White -Ron Banks, Dramatics -Marvin Isley -Solomon Burke -Bernie Wilson, Harold Melvin and.. -Estelle Bennett Ronettes -Levi Stubbs, 4 Tops '08,,,Sean Levert '08,..Billy Henderson Spinners '07 -great Philly writers Mcfadden and Whitehead both passed the decde past too.. -Billy Preston and June Pointer '06 -Obie Benson 4 tops, ronald winans of yes, that great family to name a few

Man I am hurt because this was another legend that has passed on! But as all the others she has left us a life time of music. You will be missed like those who have gone on! Peace and Blessings!
An absolute legend. If you never caught on to the greatness of this woman you have truly missed out. Those with the ignorant comments stay in your hole, you have no business discussing or commenting about such a soul, you are doing yourself a great disservice. Reincarnate Teena Marie ever time you play her jams. R.I.P Teena your simply a great.
OMG, first time I'm hearing this later song of hers...it's so good. The woman's voice is absolutely amazing...I appreciate it soo much which is why it's especially sad when people like this die...people can't sing like that nowadays...not saying people can't sing at all...it's just different, so forced. You can't talk about race with someone like Teena...whoever, said about some things transcending race below is exactly right - it's obviously very rare, but exists, like in this instance. RIP. xx
@foreverlennon Right wtf is going on...I mean why can't we loose...well i'm not gona wish that on anyone it's nothing to joke about, but YES we are loosing all our true artists and it's a damn shame! I still need her man, she was too young, she was just...too young. (sigh) singer, songwriter, producer, arranger, musician, angel...Rest in Peace beautiful lady. I Love you Lady Tee
@sapsley. ...Really? She had her own sound. On the radio her color was not an issue. The sound was wonderful. You can hear her heart in her songs. If you bring it down to race, then you were NOT listening at all.
Lady T your the greatest. What a voice. Down to earth. @sleepy310714 your list was great -check out Big Mama Thornton Rock Me(oregon 1971)/BallandChain--JanisJoplin(Monterey pop festival 1967) So many great artists. Seem like all the great die young . RIP Lady T
RIP dear Teena, I danced to your music in the streets and in the clubs of New York City during my youth. When I joined the US Navy in 1980, you were still rocking my soul on cassettes in Beirut Lebanon, Southeast and Southwest Asia, Central America, and all over Europe. I have CD's I burned for my rides that your music is still on today! I love you, thanks for rockin my soul. Thanks for changing the world.
TOGETHER FOREVER NOW.. Fukn Legends Str8 Gone. They could sing they AZZ OFF!. I first saw Rick & Tina in Washington, DC back in the day. Rick sang his part and this lil white girl came on stage with a fukn tee shirt and jeans, hair all stragly and wet lookin. And when she opened her fukn mouth...IT BLEW MY HIGH!!!! The gurl could SANG! I never knew Rick could actually sing bc i always played the Bop Gun - I got tha Bang Bang Bang and his fast shyt....
Teena's voice was unique & so brilliant there will not be another like it for many generations.
No auto tune in those days, kiddies. The voice was perfectly on key & so strong it could blow out the back seats of any theatre.
Teena played several instruments, wrote complex rhythm arrangements, & on the side was extremely kind, generous, would give you the shirt off her back, was wise & a loving, responsible mother.
Teena was a great lady. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.
Teena Marie, blew up black dancefloors here in england..we didnt see colour we juat saw a unique musical genius
Black music is influential, as is black culture, Teena Marie earned her spot in the black music world, by recording classic after classic song. portugese love and fire and desire are all time classic soul ballads,
As for the wigger comment....well it's a shame that some people are content to accept a retarded mindset
@HolyRollerTV For Real, here in the states We ( African Americans) saw her as a "SISTAH", meaning she was part of our community, and in our hearts, she was well respected and we are going to miss The Ivory Queen of Soul.
LADY TEE rocked the Apollo old school and did not need that insult to us music buyers lip-synching or auto tune. Too bad so many folks missed out on your amazing gifts because they weren't colorblind like you were!
she truly had soul look how she move she got flava she's not faking at all and she love it i miss music like this not about money or fame just love and grooving i feel you teena I'm stiring it up too sista r.i.p
Was stunned to hear that Lady T is gone. But never forgotten, Listened to her music from the start.. soulful beautiful voice u will be missed very much another great artist gone... Rest lady t... we love u alway and forever...
I totally agree with you, sleepy! All of the artists that you mentioned were legendary. There's a mighty choir in heaven, singing with the angels! ^j^ ^j^ ^j^
@sleepy310714 You said it baby. (with tears) I miss these arists, true artists 'm like sooo depressed right now; damn she was too young to die. God I'm gona miss her (sigh)
@Sportsbabe1959 Yeah Iv'e been playing her song "Deja Vu"(been here before) constantly (smile) her lyrics were sooo good! The "dance songs" The LOVE SONGS my God! The words to her LOVE SONGS were almost unmatched. Her sensuous voice and the way she loved her man in a song honey! Nobody writes em like that anymore. We'll all get through this together. R.I.P. Mary Christina Brockert/Teena Marie/Lady Tee
@sleepy310714 I agreed also add Guru from Gang Starr,Chilly B from Newclues,Alli Olllie Watson from the Temptations,Gary Shinder & Catfish Collins from the Parliments/Funkadelic,Ron Banks from The Dramatics,Teddy P.formerly from Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes,Al Goodman from The Moments,Robert Wilson from The GAP Band,Marvin Isley formerly from The Isley Brother and Isley,Jasper,Isley and Malcolm McClaren (remember Buffalo Girl & The World Supreme Team) also Apache. Wow what a year of loss.

@saspley please crawl back under the rock, that you must have let fall on your head before you wrote such an ignorant statement!!! OMG give me a break, what the hell, you couldnt just say "rip" she sounds great?? hello!! how ignorant, feel sorry for you. OMG OMG!!!!
@saspley its racists fuckers like you that set back race relations. This "white" girl can sing her fucking face off, so shut your dumb fuckin mouth and get back in your horse and buggy and head back to your farm in the south cause you are worthless.
@saspley Perhaps. I think Teena was just being fabulous self. To me, she seemed totally real, authentic, genuine - and, well - a brilliant talent that transcended race, stereotypes and simply soared with that amazing voice. Teena never changed who she was to try and remain in favor with the trends of the day. She was, thankfully just Teena - a shining star on earth and now in heaven. Love ya!
@saspley ...honey what a dumb dumb comment how in the hell is she tryn to sing like a black girl dats her natural voice and it sounds stupid to yo stupid ass because u didnt even consider that her voice has aged along with her....she been singin like dat all her life...im black so its not a racial thang yo comment is just dumb and YOU ned to delete dat bull shit.....she rocked that shit and ian sayin dat shit jis cuz she passed
Never got the respect due her, but she never backed down from keeping it real and not giving into the commercial whack shit her music survived decades through! This VANILLA CHILD of soulful music and musical artistry paved the way for artists being misrepresented by Motown like Luther, MaryJane Girls and so many more....You will get the respect now Lady T....but you should have ALWAYS been recognized as a Diva while you were still here! Rest now and sing from Heaven! God Bless your Family...
FUCKING AMAZING.... R.I.P.... GOD BLESS YOU ...LADYT

Man I am hurt because this was another legend that has passed on! But as all the others she has left us a life time of music. You will be missed like those who have gone on! Peace and Blessings!

@saspley.....I promise if you just close yr eyes, you wont be able to tell that she isnt black. Anyway we listen with our ears, not our eyes, dont we?
As SWV-Sisters With Voices -once sang: "Use yr heart, and not your eyes."
Then, such a vision as Teena Marie can truly be "seen."
Yes? Peace, my brothers & sisters.

@ltracy64 you are so right. She had a pure gift, which never went away.....she had plans to perform in miami on New Yrs eve then Atlanta Sat nite.
She was going to London in Feb.
Guess the Great Spirit had a change of travel plans for her......I hope she's enjoying The Ultimate Trip. I'll never forget you Lady T.
Rock on.

An absolute legend. If you never caught on to the greatness of this woman you have truly missed out. Those with the ignorant comments stay in your hole, you have no business discussing or commenting about such a soul, you are doing yourself a great disservice. Reincarnate Teena Marie ever time you play her jams. R.I.P Teena your simply a great.

OMG, first time I'm hearing this later song of hers...it's so good. The woman's voice is absolutely amazing...I appreciate it soo much which is why it's especially sad when people like this die...people can't sing like that nowadays...not saying people can't sing at all...it's just different, so forced. You can't talk about race with someone like Teena...whoever, said about some things transcending race below is exactly right - it's obviously very rare, but exists, like in this instance. RIP. xx

@sapsley. ...Really? She had her own sound. On the radio her color was not an issue. The sound was wonderful. You can hear her heart in her songs. If you bring it down to race, then you were NOT listening at all.

RIP dear Teena, I danced to your music in the streets and in the clubs of New York City during my youth. When I joined the US Navy in 1980, you were still rocking my soul on cassettes in Beirut Lebanon, Southeast and Southwest Asia, Central America, and all over Europe. I have CD's I burned for my rides that your music is still on today! I love you, thanks for rockin my soul. Thanks for changing the world.

Teena's voice was unique & so brilliant there will not be another like it for many generations.
No auto tune in those days, kiddies. The voice was perfectly on key & so strong it could blow out the back seats of any theatre.
Teena played several instruments, wrote complex rhythm arrangements, & on the side was extremely kind, generous, would give you the shirt off her back, was wise & a loving, responsible mother.
Teena was a great lady. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.

Teena Marie, blew up black dancefloors here in england..we didnt see colour we juat saw a unique musical genius
Black music is influential, as is black culture, Teena Marie earned her spot in the black music world, by recording classic after classic song. portugese love and fire and desire are all time classic soul ballads,
As for the wigger comment....well it's a shame that some people are content to accept a retarded mindset

@HolyRollerTV For Real, here in the states We ( African Americans) saw her as a "SISTAH", meaning she was part of our community, and in our hearts, she was well respected and we are going to miss The Ivory Queen of Soul.

@saspley Perhaps. I think Teena was just being fabulous self. To me, she seemed totally real, authentic, genuine - and, well - a brilliant talent that transcended race, stereotypes and simply soared with that amazing voice. Teena never changed who she was to try and remain in favor with the trends of the day. She was, thankfully just Teena - a shining star on earth and now in heaven. Love ya!

Seeing this Video by Teena Marie made me fully realise just how amazing she is as
an Artist, & Producer. So many had said before that she sings R&B, but I did not
realise it because I did not listen to much of her Music. She (like Jon B.) had that
Soul in their Music, which was due to their upbringing around real Soul And R&B
Artists, & Groups. She certainly has my full respect.
