i feel ya. I am BIG Lady T fan. It was funny that she kept it real and said she didnt know it and did not sing some fake lyrics.

[cococristallis]

this is why I love this woman....and I love Teena marie, but dang, Ledisi kills it!

@olamite makes me laugh that TM fans come here spouting irreverence, keeping her music alive is something I'm sure she would have enjoyed. I'm sure TM would have loved this.

I've read these comments..... Respectfully, NO ONE and I do mean NO ONE ( not in this generation of artists) can remake a Teena Marie song......................ESPE­CIALLY, ......ESPECIALLY Portuguese Love! It takes not only a special voice, but also a special passion and spirit!

Do Your Thing Girl, No Matter How Bad You May SOUND......PAY HOMAGE To The Original IVORY Queen Of Soul

Ledisi is a good singer and this vid just shows that she has a loooong way before she can TOUCH Teena Marie's version...do yourself a favor Ledisi, concentrate on your own stuff.

Oh man I absolutely LOVE this "arrangement" of the song?...It sounds real Brazillian, but nobody can do it like "Lady T" ok...don't get it twisted.

[olamite]

PLEASE STOP doing remakes of Lady T songs, just dont make since!!!

@Piankhi1 - I agree. The music industry is so - so gone that it doesn't even promote this true artist like they do all these young wanna be's. This woman has the vocal ability and strength that would eat some of these artist who are out now, alive. One thing I will say is that I don't buy the crap that's out now, but I buy everything Ledisi is on, compilations to her own solo-cd's. A true talent, just as Lady T is.
