"The gypsy moths have seen the borderline..."

Love Nona's poetry.

[CurtisRobertsonJr]

Smoking - Nona sounding better than ever (which was always great) and Eddie is killin' it. I remember seeing Patti, Nona and Sarah in the 70's and Eddie was in the band. Nothing like lifetime collaborations/friendships. I really enjoyed this - thnx for the post.

[MotownMaster]

i love Labelle, but i always thought Nona should have done the lead on the original version, love Nona

[chandiggy]

Nona. Totally awesome then and now. A legend in our presence

[toussantlbisso]

NONAMAZING!!!!!!

[MisterCrazyLegs]

I know...I know. There's FUNK and then there's THIS KIND OF FUNK!!....If Patti and Sarah had walked out on that stage to sing this with her, I wouldve fainted. It hass always been my absolute favorite LABELLE song...hands down.

[Noodleydoo]

Good lord. That damned Nona Hendryx gets better every single year. What a treat to hear her do this great psychedelic funk song from the Labelle days--amidst some of her old band-mates.
