Teena is so sweet.. I met her twice in Boston and she was so real. Not like these plastic divas of today. Sucks that she passed away. We truly are losing all the talented singer/performers...
Teenasboy50 she died way too young. Her AND Prince. Beautiful spirit, and unique talent. A loss to the world for sure.....but I can only imagine 1/100th of what Alia Rose 🌹 must feel.
She’s so good she makes my eyes well. One of the greatest oversights of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. What other woman sung so well, played EVERY instrument, and wrote all of her own songs (with the few early exceptions by RJ).
I'm tryin my best not to be sad b/c Teena Marie was sooooooooooo loved. She along with LTD, Luther, Alantic Starr, Isley Brothers, Earth Wind and Fire, The Gap Band ,Phyliss Hyman were my entire 1980's and 90's romantic teenage and young adult experience. Any boy who got some sweet lip, or a "yes" to couples skate, or no my brother you got to get your own slow jam cassette was due to the talent of someone like Ms Teena Marie. None of us get outta this world alive, but Lord u took her to soon.
Where ever the " Goddaughter of Funk and Soul " performed, I tried my damndest to be there. That's right I saw her over 20x in my life. How many ppl believe that she was right on Aretha's ass. And passed Pattie and the rest. Meeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!! I miss you and love you Lady Tee
There was and only be one sensational ivory queen of soul , Ms Teena Marie !! I don’t think Rick James really knew how this unbelievably talented vocalist , musician and composer was when he discovered her ❤Lovergirl forever Ms. Teena Marie girl 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
JUST MAKES U WISH RICK AND HER PRIMES WERE IN THE NOW (of course im saying this in 2023 and i grew up hearing her in the 80s) BRINGS SOME WETNESS TO A BROTHERS EYES. LOVE TINA MAREE FOR LIFE. She earned and kept her Black/Soul/Funk card til the day God Called her home. Rest in power to a beautiful musical gift God allowed us to have for a time.
The woman could throw DOWN!! I love and miss our beautiful Lady Tee. I'm 51 and have loved Teena Marie since I was a kid. Formidably talented, gone way too soon.
@@bleeridley3887 While promoting her 2004 LaDona release she was in her hotel room and a huge picture fell off the wall and struck her in the head causing Teena to have major seizures!!!
Lead by Jefferey Osbourne, they had hits like Shine On, We Both Deserve Each Other's Love (one of my all time favorites) Back In Love Again, Concentrate on You, Where Did We Go Wrong. RU-vid them then buy a greatest hits album immediately. Who is LTD? my ears are bleeding. LOL thanks for the question.
@mediamamachick: i did and I realize that I've heard their music, especially the song "Everytime I turn around". I just wasn't familiar with their name
@obabi who ia LTD..what?? are u kidding me? That is one of the saddest questions ever. LTD better known as LOVE TENDERNESS DEVOTION is one of the best big 70's and 80's R&B bands.This is when bands were like 10-12 guys deep with a guitar and bass, horn section, drums, (no drum machine) a keyboardist etc.
Earth,Wind and Fire come to mind when I think of bands with almost a whole orchestra.KC and the Sunshine Band is another. group with several members,horn section,etc.
