Yes! FINALLY! There’s a whole generation of people born because of this song. Also, Teena was sick during the recording and STILL blew the roof off.
I was just about to say they just might have been brought into the world because of this song 😂
@@misterdoe 😂😂
Gosh, I would take my beautiful sister to as many concerts as possible...because she had a beautiful voice and because of our shitty childhood she didn't have the self confidence to explore...anyway she was 17 when we went to see her...she died at 38, hospitals fault. So love Teena and so many more that saved my life as a kid... Karen Carpenter
@@michaelasay8587 my sister is gone also. She loved the Carpenters.
I don't think they really have these kind of love ballads today. I can remember dancing to the upbeat funky songs at the club or party. But then trying to find that special girl to dance those slow songs (like this) with.
Grown folks music right here. This is one of the greatest vocal performances ever.
Amen!
YUP‼️ You nailed it! GAF‼️
I L♥️VE your comment ❣️
Facts 😂
By far!!!
R.I. P. to two great legends. This is a classic duet right here. Lady T and Rick James. Gotta love it ❤️
See youngsters, this here is what we called a Slow Jam, and we did something what we called “slow dancing”, which usually led to phone numbers, romance, marriage , and everything else , and yes, I’m sure a lot of y’all were made to this song right here 😁😁😁😁😁😁
Say that!!!
Boom 💥
I hate so much that young people today have no idea of what romance is. So many listen to disgusting songs about graphic sex and when a guy or girl sings it, they think its "romantic". 🙄
@@LMmccallL57 I agree, they don’t have a clue, but old school class is in session with songs like these, we’re showing them how to do it, but they are failing the test …
@@Lovejazz01
Thank you. 🙂
I agree with you, as well.
Yes, you're right about class/school, and yes, the kids are failing the tests. People like us are trying to help them with their homework, but they'd rather go play.....play so-called music that has no meaning, no feeling, no heart or soul.
It truly breaks my heart to see people Amber and Jordan's age not even trying to learn about different types of music from different decades and have their children follow in their footsteps. Thankfully, these two are giving their kids a chance. 👍🏽
I've been exposed to a lot of music genres and decades all my life, and I feel extremely blessed.🙂
This is what Mariah Carey said about Teena Marie: "Teena Marie inspired me vocally as a child. Her songs I sang in the mirror with a hair brush."
Teena's voice gives me goosebumps! She was brilliant! RIP Teena
Love Lady T.
RIP Rick James too. Masterful song by both
Rest in peace mamita you was colder than ice. Only Selena can reach you❤um um um!😊
Lady T was pure soul❤ Latin and black mix. Mariah white and black. Golden Lady T you got it over Mariah all day😊 both song birds❤
If ever in this life there were two people who met by fate it was Teena and Rick! Monumental talents. Industry giants. Deeply missed, and will NEVER be replaced.
I'm 63 years old and I'm telling you, this is when music was EVERYTHING, real vocalists, real musicians, and meaningful lyrics 💖❤. R.I.P, RICK AND TEENA, singing in the heavenly choir 🙏🙏💕. Take a listen to Lisa Fischer, s "How can I ease the pain " I think you'll love it 👍
Lisa Fischer’s song is the bomb !!!!!!!!!
@donnab I just turned 68 and I was listening to Teena before Rick and I listen to all of their music still, but just in the past couple of weeks I've been playing Lisa Fischer singing "How can I ease the pain 😢" because my man that I've loved for 25 years ended our Love the day before I turned 68. So yeah, old school music will get you through all of life's challenges and loves ❤️ We really did have the Best music ever 🎉🎉🎉
My Mom saw Rick in concert in the mid 80's. When he got to this song he announced Tina couldn't come and he'd do the song alone. When he got to the part "Remember when you used to...." she came out walking out belting "Looovve...." Mom said the audience lost...their...minds!
When I'm watching you two, I realize that I took the music from my generation for granted. Of course I knew this is a fantastic song, however. Rick and Teena both debuted when I was a teenager and I've been hearing them ever since. Watching the reaction just now made me hear it with new ears. I was SO blessed to live in this musical era. 💛
Yes we really were. Of course we didn't know. I thought such music would go on forever, but it didn't. We got the best didn't we.
@@jackiegoodspeed1849 Yes we certainly did.
We were spoiled by so much talent !
@@Lovejazz01
Yes we definitely were.
@@Lovejazz01
We are a better generation because of the music and our unity through it.
You just hit the soul jackpot! It just doesn't get any better than this one.
Teena Marie was truly an amazing multi-genre singer..funk/r&b/soul/dance!!! "Portuguese Love" "Behind The Groove" "I Need Your Lovin" "Square Biz" her music was ALWAYS on my 80s mix tapes!!...sooo tragic she died so young at age 54..truly a great loss!
Don't forget oooh la la la!
No she wasn't
@@faaguila yes!! Hey did u get to see her? I saw her in the 80s.
@@bigolebot no she wasn't what?A fantastic singer?!!!
@@michaelasay8587 she wasn't
Absolutely legendary duet. One of the greatest ever🔥🔥🔥. RIP to both of these legends 🙏🏽
if you appreciate Rick's voice on this song you'll love Rick's duet with Smokey Robinson, Ebony Eyes. P.S. In this crass world, you two are a breath of fresh air with your wholesome energy. Love y'all.
Yes indeed, Ebony eyes
Good 👍 point! Another amazing 🎵 song!!
Just love when youngins finally hear our music 🎶
Ricks voice killed it here. My family is Mexican and I always remember seeing a Rick James album in the mix of all my mom’s Mexican records 😂. The Mexicanos have a lot of love for Rick and for Teena.
AND...Legend has it that the day they were to record "Fire & Desire", Teena was sick with a fever and wanted to postpone the session. But, Rick was ready to do it anyway and thought about using another singer to fill in. Apparently, when Teena found out, she was not having it. She went into the studio anyway, cut her vocals and then went to the ER from the studio! Great story.
I think she did it in one take too...
@@AshLee92490 I believe that
Wow ???? For real ????
I never will tire of listening to this song. You can hear and feel the absolute passion . These two are gone from us now but their music will live on. Brings tears to my eyes every time
Rick James could have easily been a operatic tenor and he was a musical genius him and Teena were a remarkable pairing and we all are blessed to have heard them R.I.P.
Teena Marie’s singing blows Beyoncé’s out of the water!
Facts Beyonce is a performer not a singer.
why ya always mention beyonce? lmao
Music for grown ups to make little babies by.😊
Hell yeah it does!!!!
Absolutely my sister point blank period.
THIS is one of the best duets EVER!!! Rick and Teena had a long relationship professionally and a short one romantically. They were part of a new generation for Motown and carried the name for the 80's.
The Teena Marie(Fire & Desire) effect when she starts singing. You throw your hands up. Still raises the hair on my neck and pops up my senses to this day even though I know it’s coming. Loved y’all’s reaction to them soaring vocally. That was fun to see.
Rick and Teena were quite competitive with each other.
80's kid here👋🏿👋🏿 I just discovered this song within the last 10 years. Her vocals when she comes in STILL gives me chills. Yep, this is baby-making music, for sure.
Dianne....I saw her in the 80s! Ooh la la la...
This is one of the most 🔥duets ever, the vocals are just insane!
Classic classic song! This is blue light in the basement music. Teena's voice was one of a kind. They did this song at the BET Awards and blew the roof off. I kept thinking, "Wait until Amber hears Teena!"
You have to react to Teena Marie's "Out On A Limb"
I was thinking the same thing.
Teena Marie is simply IMO one of the top 20 vocalists of all time!!! Absolutely stunning what she could do effortlessly with her voice!!
I love, LOVE this classic duet! Rick & Tina had such chemistry and their vocals complemented each other perfectly. Sexy & romantic tune.
I SAW these two LIVE at Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino, in 1981! I was 18 years old, this was one of the BEST concerts EVER!
They had a beautiful chemistry and blew the doors off with this song! Back in the day, we had no phones nor internet and heard all music through the radio, album or tape! Blew me away when I saw that Tina Marie was a little petite white woman!
RIP to 2 of the greatest to ever do it
Yes! Rick James is mostly thought of as a Funk artist but he is also a great R&B artist. He is very underrated.
And Teena Marie... she was absolutely fantastic! They were a great pair and she had some great hits and albums on her own. RIP to two great artists in every way.
Agreed what a voice
That's my girl Lady T baby.... #1 fan and Rick oh man ... RIP
Rick and Teena both had powerhouse voices!!! Love this song soooo much!!!
This song will forever give me goosebumps whenever I hear it this sing is 🔥
So happy you got back around to Teena Marie!!! Given the musical elements you guys really like, I think "You make love like Springtime" and "Tune in Tomorrow" are great to follow up with. They are both from her first album, and made people take notice.
Everybody forgets about, I'm just a Sucker for your love, aladins lamp and so many more.
What’s crazy is teena Marie was sick singing this song!!!!
You gotta put a picture of Rick James on your wall!
Rick James ebony eyes is a beautiful song and Teena Marie ooo lala both songs are sung beautifully. RIP to two legends.
Saw them do this live , no one knew she was there, he started singing, she started singing from back stage and walked out and everyone went crazy !! They Tore It Up !! Great Concert !! R.I.P Rick & Teena 🙏
Teddy pendergrass 😱
Turn off the lights 😜
Great times ❣️❣️❣️❣️
Y'all enjoy your adventures in Music 🎶✌️♥️🥃
I am so happy that you did this reaction. I am 62 years old and to this day, this is my all time favorite ballad. Nothing has ever come close. I saw Teena and Rick together perform this back in the day in Philly and OMG we joked about how all the ladies needed blow dryers after watching them perform. Their performance and chemistry was off the charts! They are both legends in the music industry. R.I.P. to both.
One of the best songs ever!!! Definitely the best R&B duet of all-Time. The most passionate song I ever heard. Rick was great, but Teena Marie was not of this world. Despite being by far the best "blue eyed" soul singer of all-time, she is still underated.
That’s what you call a real Duet! Just magically Divine Feminine and Masculine at its finest 👌🖤💫✨
Congratulations guys! You just hit R&B gold! 🎖🎖🎖
This is true talent and artistry. This is MUSIC.
I love the faces Amber makes, she’s all in tune to the music💯
One of the greatest duets of All Time!! Rick James was a great producer too!! Also check out: "Teardrops" by Rick James ..&.. "Young Love" by Teena Marie (2 of my Favorite individual hits from them) ..R.I.P. to these Legends!!
laawwvvvvveeee them, and leave them.... CLASSIC!!!!
Lady T she had more soul than a lot of black singers.
I am a hard-core Rick James and Teena Marie fan. I can’t even tell you how much I love this song. You should dive deeper into both Rick and Teena’s music catalogs.., especially Teena’s. she doesn’t have a bad song in the bunch! It’s so cute when I see reaction videos where they only know Rick James from Dave Chapelle. He’s a legend…The man could blow. Teena’s vocal skills speak for themselves
Don’t forget the Mary Jane Girls!
I'm so happy you reacted to this song, this song has always given me the chills. The way Teena came in was nothing short of incredible.
This truly showed off the singing voices of Rick James and Teena Marie.
Rick James and Teena Marie both have a string of hits !
wow Im new to Teena but her voice & vocal range are on another level. she must be up there with the legendary vocalists of all time. she has a freedom & rawness that I dont think Mariah or Whitney had. I cant imagine any female singer upstaging her in a live duet. cause she has all the tricks!
Growing up on the Chappelle sketch made me want to check out Rick James. Sure, everyone knows Superfreak but that doesn’t even begin the depths of RJ’s musical genius. Wrote his own lyrics, wrote his own music, produced, and had one of the most underrated singing voices possibly ever
In my opinion, one of the greatest duets ever recorded, this should have been your first reaction. Another great duet you should listen to is Luther Vandross and Cheryl Lynn If This World Was Mine
LOVE this song, a classic duet. It really showcases Rick's voice and how good it actually was and of course Teena is Teena, miss Lady T, she killed as always. So very glad you were able to get around to this one. When you did the other duet by them, I said to myself, "They just don't know, let them a hold of 'Fire & Desire', that's going to blow their minds".
I'm with you...every word!
Excellent choice! Thanks for reacting to it. Teena was definitely underrated.
I was really blessed to be born during this time in music. Back when they actually sing. No prep needed. PURE TALENT!
This is the song right here!!! That love making music! When I was in college in 1989 my freshman year the guys in my dorm would be singing this to the top of there lungs on a Friday night!!! 😂 Please check out You and I also by Rick James! You will be ready to party when you hear it!
Amber: "Singing notes that makes babies!!!!" The best description I ever heard regarding Rick's vocals on this track. Teena Marie was a once and a lifetime talent. Do more of her content please, especially "Out on a Limb" or "Portuguese Love". Amber you will love it. Excellent reaction usual.
Yes, Rick James (RIP) and Teena Marie (RIP) were amazing together. I think this was their their second and most popular duet of 3. They also did Square Biz, a dance track that helped introduce Teena Marie. But don't be fooled, most of the rest of Rick James music is Punk Funk with a heavy guitar and the horns of his Stone City Band.
Rick had a beautiful voice. Swoon worthy..
What an excellent song. They both have such amazing voices. I knew Rick James back in Yorkville. ✌️
She said "he sings notes that just makes babies" Damn girl.🤣
This was the cut! You must get to know Rick James. There was a time when Prince, Rick James and Michael Jackson were in competition to see who would rule. You need to go deep with Rick and Tina they both have a lot of hits!
Rick James - Mary Jane 1970s funky tunes very good song
Best love song ever! Still listen to this today.
Rick James' voiceabd vocal technique were underated. He was excellent. He has this great uptempo tune 'You and I' that showed off his skill pretty well. Teena Marie was also fantastic as well, her song 'I Need Your Lovin' from her incredible album 'Irons in the Fire', shows her funk skills with grace and depth. This song shows both of them at the height of their powers. Kudos to your first listen.
You and I!
Classics never die
Teena Marie
Hands down for that Lady.
Never forgotten.
R.I.P. Both of you.
This is a CLASSIC!
Hey guys,
This is One of the greatest RnB ballad duo sings of all time!
I call it a “Moment In Time Song”!
It could only have happened when it happened!
This song can never be duplicated!
And ….. of course Rick and Teena were a couple back then!
The emotion you hear is real!
At times I forgot that both of them have transitioned! 😔
But their music will last forever! 😄❤️
Lady T had so much Soul and Rick had so much power, both had the perfect amount of emotion which made this song Legendary
Classic ! Rip Rick James and Teena Marie 🙏🏼
Greatest duet ever made, Tina’s vocal range brings tears to my eyes.
One of if not the greatest duets of all time! 💘🎤🎼🎤💘
Rick James was the Master of Punk Funk but his ballads are outstanding. He came on the scene in the '70's & blew us young folk away. Then he introduced us to Teena Marie & magic ensued. R.I.P. Rick & Teena❤️
Till this day, this is my favorite duet of all time. I love this song as much now as the day I first heard it. It always gives me chills.
Oooooh, when she says, "everything, everything, everything's going to be alright" I get the chills so bad!!!
Tell them Mr James!!
This song is one of the best ever, Teena and rick put everything into this. I wish rick showed off his voice like this more often.
Rick snatched her soul
What a DYNAMIC duo! Rick James and Teena Marie were magical on this song! Rick did his thing on this ballad and Teena aka "Lady T" unleashed her sensational vocal range! Classic!!! Both gone way too soon. Rest in Heaven!
A Classic for my generation! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
That was one of my favorite songs back in the day. Loved both of their music. Most romantic song ever. Big difference from super freak
RIP grate talent lost. Awesome range Rick James. 🙏❤
Teena Marie at her ABSOLUTE finest - Portuguese Love!!"
This song showcases Rick James and Teena Marie vocals. This song blew me away thew first time I heard it. It still blow me away.
You ought to her serenading Smokey Robinson....with his own song. The audience, and Smokey gave her standing ovation....wish yall would do that song....yall both would fall out of your chairs! Go to search and put "Teena Marie Serenading Smokey Robinson" right here on YT....It will BLOW YOU AWAY!!!!!!
About Time !! Saw them sing this at Madison Square Garden in the 80s !! It was a Rick James concert no one knew she was there until he started singing and she started singing off stage and then walked out on stage and they brought the house down !! It was Awesome !! R.I.P Rick & Teena 🙏
One of the greatest love songs ever made❤
Thank you so much for reacting to this. What a special collaboration. Chills, chills, chills ♥️
Lord have mercy!
Rick James and Teena Marie, two amazing legends that we were lucky to have with us 🤩
I was @ the Verizon Amptheater when I last saw her in Concert SHE BLEW EVERYONE AWAY now she's blessing those in heaven with her voice
OH MY GOD!!! YALL JUST BE LIKE "HOW CAN WE MAKE JARRYL HAPPY TODAY"!! Stephanie Mills yesterday, TRADING PLACES ANNNNNNNND FIRE & DESIRE TODAY?!?!?! Oh my goodness.
BTW Amber your braids look so good!! You're giving Janet Jackson Poetic Justice
And yall were looking for the wording of the vocal runs. And yea to me with this song you can hear the love that existed between them when they made it, it didn't last, it didn't work out but they really made some great music together and this song is the epitome of that. Rest in peace to both of them, 2 phenomenal voices. I have recommendations for both that hit this similar energy (nothing I've heard from either quite compares to this).
Teena - Portugese Love (with Rick on background voices), Ohh La La La, Out On A Limb, & I Need Your Lovin (with Rick on the bass)
Rick- Ebony Eyes (ft. Smokey Robinson) & Bustin Out
You think you're blushing now Amber - you should watch a live version of this 😁. Great song!
you'all doing what I do when I revisit my man Rick, and lady Tina! yeeeeaaaahhhh, boy! I just lost it in to another world...of course it's like a "blast from my past"!! ....I feel a lot better now how you young generation is finding out what "real music sounds like".....I have a collection of songs from my past like Rick, Isley, Moments, etc....LOVE IT! This is the solution for love and peace on earth....OLDIES but GOODIES SOUL.
First time hearing this!!! I never knew Rick James had such pipes!! DAMN!!
