Teena is R&B royalty, there will never be another like her. She was a musician, singer, arranger, producer and song writer of all her thirteen albums! What a musical legacy she left the world. Too bad she never received the respect and recognition she so rightly deserved!
How in the hell is she not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? Shows you what they think of black folks by admitting mere rappers but not the Ivory Queen.
In this world, respect and recognition is given to trash consciously oriented to the masses( jay-z, beatles), and Tina is for the elite. So everything is in its place.
So well put,and l agree 100 per cent,she needs to be posthumously rewarded for what she was and did.for now she's up in heaven doing a duet with Rick James forever more.
Hey for the people saying she sounds bad live, you need to remember singers get sick and horse too. I've heard her plenty of times live and she sounded great just like her records. Teena was a great soul singer! RIP
Stage presence for days regardless of any notes she may be off on. Give me a great performer any day over a "perfect voice" but piece of wood on stage!
my wife loves Tina Marie have all her albums and CD s she is a legend and had a vocal gift she was one of a kind legend her music lives on she will be mist
Teena should be an America music icon, not just a R&B icon. Unfortunately, she was too far ahead of her time, when R&B was just a subgenre of Pop. Her vocal talent, instrumental virtuosity, charisma, and innovation a a woman who controlled center stage like a BOSS, make her a legend in American music. We have had others since: Lauren, India, Jill, Erykah, Janelle, etc.. Lady T is the mother of them all. I will never forget. I hope that many others will remember as well.
I remember watching this episode on Showtime at The Apollo. She is so cool, she has alway's had that swagger. Truly in a class all by herself. Her style, her voice and her beign is missed. R.I.P.
This live version of Lovergirl by Teena Marie compares to the original music collection in a good way and I am glad that it was made available here online. I admit that I started to listen to this classic 80s love song more frequently after the December 2010 timeframe for some reason though fortunately I was previously aware of this song both because this song played on the radio in the area I lived in as a teenager and I heard it again on a local station radio via the area I was living at the time when I was either 23 or 24
that girl had the coolest sense of style, look hot hot she looks, the funkiest white girl to ever grace the universe, love you forever Lady T, pure class after all she was a Motown Artist
Most great musicians will have that break out song, this was Teena’s. The Club scene was changing fast and Teena was at that fore front. Any Club worth a damn played this and played it often. Very Famous back in the day.
My mom said the Rick James and Teena Marie was her first concert she went to in the 80’s here in Birmingham and he smoked a joint right on stage lol. She’s lucky to have been born in ‘68 bc I love these two and would’ve loved to have been at a concert to hear them perform “Fire And Desire!”
I love you lady t I feel so blessed to have grown up to your music the Angeles must be enjoying ur talent as much as we do you will never b forgotten rip in peace bueatiful lady you will Always live in my heart ps. My wife whom passed away in 7/27/2019 used to dedicate ur songs to me rest in peace my Angeles thank you both so much
What a great spirit, What a classy Lady...All my favorite singers just seem to leave us too soooooooon. Pisses me off...But we cant fight Gods Plan...Teena we miss you YOUNG Lady....So sad, way too sooon!!
THIS is my boyfriends computer...So this is coming from his girlfriend...Tina and Rick were the best...They loved each other more than itself...They are both gone, and too soon for me...I start to cry when I see them perform together, because it is true love...We do not have that now...I mean I am a 80s girl, and were did the respect go?! May prayers bring back everyone how it was in the Piece, love and happiness era...
IVORY QUEEN OF SOUL! At’ta girl! Do yo thang! Rest In Peace Teena. ****AND YES I THINK THE BASSLINE TO THIS CUT IS ONE OF THE BEST/FUNKIEST EVER!! “Ba da doom dub ba da da boom!!”
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s missing Ivory Angel. Played every instrument like Prince, wrote all of her own songs (except a few early ones by RJ), and of course those vocal performances. Yet R&RHoF admitting mere rappers before this lady. And speaking of rap, she was the FIRST singer to rap, and did so ably.
Man do I miss you since you've been gone.....now Whitney has to live on as you do. No longer here with us..but always here with us in spirit. Rest In Peace Ladies.
She rocks the Ivory Queen of soul! Until the day she died whe was performing....Let's see what you can do when you are 54... GREAT JOB TEENA! Rock the heavens! See you some day! I'll rock the earth with your songs.
She came to slay the audience 🤣😂😂🤣 and baby that's why she is the top of RnB royalty family that little white girl made you forget color while you were listening. Just saying she's the best female funkateer.
2021 listening. Music today corrupts our girls to look up to, “WAP” standards, no wonder women can’t find a good man. Women…go watch Kevin Samuels , then come back and listen to REAL music in this ERA! Thank you mom 🙏RIP
She should be honored in rock n roll hall of fame she was and will always be an all time great
Teena is R&B royalty, there will never be another like her. She was a musician, singer, arranger, producer and song writer of all her thirteen albums! What a musical legacy she left the world. Too bad she never received the respect and recognition she so rightly deserved!
Even though she was older and bigger here i still feel she was still sexually attractive and she could still hit them high notes i love it
How in the hell is she not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame? Shows you what they think of black folks by admitting mere rappers but not the Ivory Queen.
Facts
In this world, respect and recognition is given to trash consciously oriented to the masses( jay-z, beatles), and Tina is for the elite. So everything is in its place.
@@paulhue86 or most importantly the Hollywood Walk of Fame
Teena wearing that fedora hat like a BOSS!...I wished the music world would honor her more...Cause shes definitely someone to never forget!
So well put,and l agree 100 per cent,she needs to be posthumously rewarded for what she was and did.for now she's up in heaven doing a duet with Rick James forever more.
ABSOLUTELY 💯 ❤😊
I saw her live the year before she passed. she was incrediable
Me too. Seven months before she passed.
Lucia Harbour no you didn’t
Hey for the people saying she sounds bad live, you need to remember singers get sick and horse too. I've heard her plenty of times live and she sounded great just like her records. Teena was a great soul singer! RIP
Sh'kena W 😷➕🐎?
She sounded flat here and there but I can't and will not hold it against her.i never met a Tina performance I didn't like.
Yup you can tell she was horse and whoever said she sounded bad has never seen Teena live
Stage presence for days regardless of any notes she may be off on. Give me a great performer any day over a "perfect voice" but piece of wood on stage!
"singers get sick and horse too."
"Hoarse", not "horse".
Now this is REAL music.......I grew up on this with my Mom and Grandma. RIP and God bless you Lady T. Love you, lady!
Man this takes me Back when Music was Magic.
Why was this queen so underrated wtf
This isn't her best, but even on her bad day she is STILL on point! Love you, miss you Lady T R.I.P.
she rocked that show!!!! RIP LADY T
Teena is definitely invited to the bbq 💯💯💯💯💯💯
A lifetime invitation, sis!
Damn. She really gets down on this ultra-classic 80s jammer!
my wife loves Tina Marie have all her albums and CD s she is a legend and had a vocal gift she was one of a kind legend her music lives on she will be mist
*Teena
100% accepted by R&B audiences. I don't think any other Caucasian soul acts can say that.
AWB
Damn Right! I forgot about AWB!
Here we go another ones lost and missed love these shows
Bad to the bone and CLEAN!. Am I wrong to say I forever amazed that sound is coming from her.
D*mn She was incredible!!!!
THE ONE AND ONLY....LADY "T"!!!!!

I cannot love Teena Marie more than I do right now. All my love to her in heaven.
Mar.5: Happy birthday Teena Marie (1956-2010) Thank you and God bless. RIP, Lady T,
So miss Lady T, what an awesome performance from a stellar performer...

She had so much energy, and she could sing too! Excellent performance, can't see nothing that entertaining ,and with that much talent anymore!
She killed it .. Bottom - Line ______
we don't have entertainers like this any more .. ..
What a talented woman. Gone too soon.
Today I can blast this in a car and I suddenly feel like a teenager.RIP Lady T.
Same here! I love to sing along to that song
I remember watching this episode on Showtime at The Apollo. She is so cool, she has alway's had that swagger. Truly in a class all by herself. Her style, her voice and her beign is missed. R.I.P.
There will never be another Teena!!!!!!
Man, she looks good here! Go 'head, Lady T!!! Blew 'em away as usual!
so well accepted by everyone..she deserved it, a wonderful talent
If you don't enjoy Lady T
something wrong with you
That's exactly right!
I met her in Pittsburgh Pa and she was the NICEST MUSCIAN to ever meet! ❤
This song was stuck in my head at work today. It's great and its kinda disappointing that me and my dad never got to see her play live.
She's Great! No easy play rhythm guitar while singing ;)
