I remember hearing this song from my uncle room and he was crying to this song when i was little and now that I am a grown. I ran up on this song and now teardrops are falling from my eyes. I feel what my uncle was feeling when he played this song I love this song RIP RJ
I’m 15 years old and I’m in love with this type of music I could listen to it for hours I wish I was apart of this generation!! Rip a funk legend Rick James!
Rick James was a brilliant entertainer that needed all the recognition in the world. The brother was so brilliant that he blessed us with the phenomenal Teena Marie
Rick James was one of the most gifted singer/songwriters of the modern era who never received the recognition that he truly deserved.R.I.P. Slick Rick James.
+Wobblydiamond98 Rick James, El DeBarge & Jermaine Jackson are 3 of THE MOST underrated singer/songwriters, producers & musicians in the history of music ! Btw, Rick & Teena, should've been in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, yet they keep over looking them .
+mrinnervisionz I am with you 1000percent it"s a shame that there not in but that's ok because those of us that know the real deal we create are own hall of fame
Personally.This is just me.Rick James didn't sing.I won't go so far as calling him a singer.Rick was Rick.Rick was no singer.He was great at what he does but not singing.
To the truest OG rick james your voice is exceptional he didn't get the proper respect he deserved he was a magical genius.there will never ever be another Rick James.RIP rick james forever missed.
Rick James one of best prolific song writer. & singer his musiq resonates even today 2019 and beyond pure genius he was born with 🎁 gift of musiq in his ❤️ and it poured out when he sang 🔥🔥🔥🐐🐐🐐💿🎶🍷🍹 young 🐈 cats probably won’t appreciate this musiq but no one should thumb down this at all 🌚
Teardrops is a Classic song that Slick Rick sang with sooooo much soul, passion and love. The man had the ability to put so much passion into a song that he didn't get the full attention he deserved. Happy, Teardrops, Slow and Easy, Ebony Eyes, Jefferson Ball. Yeah Fire and Desire got plenty of air play but the above mentioned songs didn't get the credit they deserved. Real talk...RIP Super Freak...your music is eternal....👌🏿✌🏿🙏🏽
the first concert I ever went to was Rick James and Parliament and the Funckadelic, I went with my big brother who' s a preacher now and my cousin who has passed we was all still in high school then wow memory he came out on stage with a giant joint in his mouth I will never forget it best concert ever may he rest peacefully. his music was worth buying for sure.
Rick James was a a icon not just a icon he was a gift from God his music was some heart felt music that is unique he truly will be missed as well as Mz Lady Tee they are missed n truly will make God pleased in the heavens above
"....they are fallingggg... 'cause my girl is gone away" , I cry and cry anyway ! This beautiful composition that hits that hard, because although I didn't lose my girl, my tears are still falling as if I did!
Tear drops fall from my eyes every time I hear this song. Rick was such a great singer, writer, composer of music!!! Not just funk music but awesome ballads as well. Very talented all around. He left us to soon but I know he and my girl Teena are in heaven singing their hearts out and whenever God calls me home I will be on the front row of every show!!!! 💗💙💚💛💜💟💞💖
Teardrops!!! This Song 🎵 Was Classic By Rick James!!! He Definitely Could Sing 🎶 The Slow Love 💕 Ballad Songs!!! Musical 🎶 Genius 🫵🏽 Rest In Power Rick🙏
Tear drops falling as I reminisce and realizing how time causes the good days to be our past; while we remember them, we can not get that time back. Prom night. The high school dance. Our fist kiss. The mischief. The crush that we had on someone special. Life was so full of promises and adventure. Sometimes we just just have to let a Tear Drop Fall... (I love you Rick)
when I think of all the great ones that are falling from the tree of life. and descending to another world(Heaven) a tear drop starts to fall.Rest in peace.❤
Teardrops are falling from your eyes Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling Teardrops are falling from your eyes Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling) A teardrop fell from my eyes yesterday Letting me know I was not to be to cry Although I asked the girl "please go away" Should I be a man and just apologize? I was all so wrong (baby, you were so wrong) Hiding my foolish pride (hiding behind your pride) Over and over again Now the teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling) They are falling Now my girl is gone away Teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling) They are falling But my girl is gone to stay A teardrop fell from my eyes yesterday Suddenly there was an emptiness inside To lose a precious love like yours that way And feeling such pain that brought teardrops to my eyes I was all so wrong (baby, you were so wrong) Hiding behind my foolish pride (hiding behind your pride) Over and over again Now the teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling) They are falling Cause my girl is gone away Teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling) They are falling Cause my girl is gone to stay Blow baby Blow Danny You know it takes a very, very special kind of man To admit to his woman that he's been wrong I've lost many ladies in my life And through losing I've learned one thing That you must be honest with the one you love When you lose the one you love And the teardrops start to fall Don't hesitate or even wait Say you love her, thinking of her Give the one you love, your all in all All and in all, all in all Give her all the love you've got (Teardrops are falling from your eyes Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling Falling...)
My aunt used to play the hell out of this record years ago when I was a kid. It was not until I was a teenager that I really started to gain my own respect for his music. Thanks for posting this song to allow us to continue his great music.
Carla Linton. May Rick James soul R. I. P. In Heaven With The Good Lord Jesus Christ. He was one of my favorite Male Artists. One of my favorite songs by Rick James is call. Teardrops. This is one of my favorite old school slow jams back in the day.
OMG I LOVE THIS SONG.. I just heard it for the first time... People have been sleep on Rick James. Ive always listened to him from choildhood.. Rest In Love Rick..Ohh this is a bad jam yes.. LOL Im RICK JAMES BI
Youngsters this is what we were bumping during our school days. Parties 100 slow songs in a row. EAST DAGO OG PBI YOUNG PLAYER SHIT! RIP RICK AND TINA!
Rick, ever I do listen to your intense, soulful and incomparable voice, I feel your Soul! The Soul, you put into your sweet music. And, your talent for the musical instrumental part, of course, not to be mentioned! I love you, James Ambroice Johnson for the Love and Soul, you gave us! Hope we meet up there somewhere!
I've been going back and forth about this for some years now but today I will just go ahead and admit it. This IS my favorite ballad from Rick (Teena duets excluded). He has so many to choose from but this one just hangs there in thin air resonating. Some ppl come up in an era. Some ppl fit right in to an era. Then you have that select few that create an era. Hats off to the Funkmaster General!
Cold olskool jam.Back My High school Days . Make me think about some of my EX Girl friends...lol...The King.When you lose the ONE You Luv..... Give her ALL your Love....💟💘💓👑👑👑👑
BACK N DA DAY THIS SONG BROUGHT MANY TEARS 2 MY EYES IT WAS THE VERY FIRST TIME THAT I EVER FELL N LUV I WAS 18 YEARS OLD AND HE PLAYED ME LIKE A TOY BUT I WILL SAY THIS HE TAUGHT ME HOW 2 RECOGNIZE REAL FROM FAKE

THIS MAN WAS NOT APPRECIATED ENOUGH 4 HIS VOCAL ABILITIES HE COULD SING DA HELL OUT OF A BALLAD RIP RJ😇😇😇😇
Rick was VERY much appreciated for his ballads
I sooooo agree
@@supremeali9703 definitely NOT enough! For a generation, he's just the guy who used to bully Charlie Murphy rather than the gift to music he was.
@@supremeali9703 hi volume
YOU ARE DEFINITELY RIGHT
HE WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SINGERS.
RICK JAMES SAVED ME FROM MY FOOLISH PRIDE
A teardrop fell from my eyes yesterday reminding me that you are gone. RIP Rick James
Yes, a great loss to the music world! Nobody today sings like this! ❤
❤💔❤
I remember hearing this song from my uncle room and he was crying to this song when i was little and now that I am a grown. I ran up on this song and now teardrops are falling from my eyes. I feel what my uncle was feeling when he played this song I love this song RIP RJ
I played this song over and over back in the day...young dumb and in love
I’m 15 years old and I’m in love with this type of music I could listen to it for hours I wish I was apart of this generation!! Rip a funk legend Rick James!

Nobody sings like this today! What a joy to hear Rick James great voice! ❤
Rick James was a brilliant entertainer that needed all the recognition in the world. The brother was so brilliant that he blessed us with the phenomenal Teena Marie
Can you believe he is not in Rock and Roll Hall of fame.
Rick James was one of the most gifted singer/songwriters of the modern era who never received the recognition that he truly deserved.R.I.P. Slick Rick James.
there will NEVER BE ANOTHER
@@janicetillman6044 Carla Linton. Sure want.
I don’t condone any of the things this man did in his personal life. But he truly was a musical genius.
"A tear drop fell from I yesterday letting me know I was not too big to cry" "Should I be a man and just apologize?" Now that's real!
E Dizzle . Yes indeed. This is real. Don't hesitate or even wait...
Rare these days... An apology, least alone communicating true feelings. These reasons.
Rick James needs to get more credit for being such a great song writer and singer

All I can say is Wow! This Man just told my life story! I listen to him every day!
I dont remember writing this 2 years ago
I never heard this song before. I’m in love with this song.
I'm glad you heard it! Blessings!
When I tell you Rick James was awesome, the man was bad to the bone, along with Teena Marie!
For sure!
Loved Rick, can't believe u not said anything about the man,listening to teardrops as i text u
Have u listened to deeper,
There definitely was a humble side to Rick that many never got a chance to discover. I saw it in his ballads. R.I.P. Rick
Professor x Rick James was a bad dude one of my favorites
I agree

James Hughes devalued.
This is a badass song!! Rick James sangs this song. You can feel the pure emotion of it!!

Leslie Haynes yes it was he was a bad man in a good way
Those horns blowing make you feel the love.
I'm no pimp but that's a pimp call
Teardrops masterpiece from a urban icon
Still jamming this in 2019, Rick James was a serious badd ass ballad singer.
"....they are fallingggg... 'cause my girl is gone away" , I cry and cry anyway ! This beautiful composition that hits that hard, because although I didn't lose my girl, my tears are still falling as if I did!

Teardrops are falling from your eyes
Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling
Teardrops are falling from your eyes
Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling)
A teardrop fell from my eyes yesterday
Letting me know I was not to be to cry
Although I asked the girl "please go away"
Should I be a man and just apologize?
I was all so wrong (baby, you were so wrong)
Hiding my foolish pride (hiding behind your pride)
Over and over again
Now the teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling)
They are falling
Now my girl is gone away
Teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling)
They are falling
But my girl is gone to stay
A teardrop fell from my eyes yesterday
Suddenly there was an emptiness inside
To lose a precious love like yours that way
And feeling such pain that brought teardrops to my eyes
I was all so wrong (baby, you were so wrong)
Hiding behind my foolish pride (hiding behind your pride)
Over and over again
Now the teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling)
They are falling
Cause my girl is gone away
Teardrops are falling (falling, falling, falling)
They are falling
Cause my girl is gone to stay
Blow baby
Blow Danny
You know it takes a very, very special kind of man
To admit to his woman that he's been wrong
I've lost many ladies in my life
And through losing I've learned one thing
That you must be honest with the one you love
When you lose the one you love
And the teardrops start to fall
Don't hesitate or even wait
Say you love her, thinking of her
Give the one you love, your all in all
All and in all, all in all
Give her all the love you've got
(Teardrops are falling from your eyes
Teardrops are falling, teardrops are falling
Falling...)
Teardrops did fall back in the day....and this song facilitated it. Love was on the rocks.
Talking about losing Teena
These songs helped me get through 18 months in Germany as 18, 19 year old soldier. I can picture it like it was last month. Thanks Rick James.
Beautiful voice
I wished he came back from the grave to record just one more cd.
