Kina - "Funkier Than A Mosquito's Tweeter" -Live On The Rox

[Classof20012010]

I wish she would stop playin' with my 'motions and record another fabulous album. I lubs me some Kina!!

The original was indeed performed by Ike and Tina. Since then other greats have covered. ..ie. Nina Simone, Kina, Nikka Costa, more ... and most recently, Joe Bonamassa. Woah! He rocks it!

Kina, where are you? you made an amazing CD almost 10 years ago and then you disappeared....thanks to OtterFreak for posting this...I miss KIna

I would love to agree with you as I love Nina Simone, but the song was written by Tina Turner's sister for Tina to sing. It was later covered by Nina Simone. You can look it up :-)

This song was originally recorded by Ike & Tina Turner. It was written by Tina's sister, Alline Bullock Selico.

This song is not a Nina Simone song... is and Ike and Tina Turner song...

[Tektasin]

Then you don't know your music history too well because it was a Nina Simone song and has been covered by Nikka Costa on her second album as well as performed live by the likes of artists like Kina but as far as I know Ike And Tina Turner never did this song.

[sharihotsu78]

Sorry this song was written by Alline Bullock Tina Turner ( Anna Mae Bullock )' sister, this song is included at "Working together" album by Ike and Tina Turner released in 1971.Even there are an Ike and Tina Turner compilation called "Funkier than a mosquito's tweeter". You're very wrong ¡

[polkie77]

Actually, you aren't completely correct. Though Tina wrote the song, this *version* is distinctly Nina's. Tina's version is more brassy, but Nina's is a whole new bag.
