"I Need Your Lovin'" is one of my favorite Teena Marie singles. She has so many great songs. I can listen to all of her albums (well maybe not "Ivory") straight through and love every single song. This particular track gave Teena Marie one of her biggest hits however.
"M-O-N-E-Y never did a thing for L-O-V-I-N"
It's such a catchy song and Teena Marie's instrumentals were always top notch.
Billboard Pop Singles: #37
Billboard Black Singles: #9

I like this song. However, I Think "Out On A Limb" was her most incredible vocal perfomance. I also liked "Fire and Desire" (duet with Rick James).
Other TM gems...
"Portugeuse Love"
"If I Were A Bell"
"Square Biz"
"Casanova Brown"
She just has an incredible range as a vocalist.

Never heard this song. The only song I ever heard from her was "I just want to be your Lovergiririrl"

I always thought Teena was sexy when I was in my mid-late teens and early-mid 20s. it's hard to explain, she isn't a model type, she just has a certain slutty sexual appeal that I dug.
I dig this and Square Biz and Fire And Desire over countless hits. It's nice to see she's being accepted today too.

This is quite possibly my favorite Teena Marie song. Everything about it is so perfect. The lyrics, the instrumental, the vocal performance...

She is so underrated as a musician and lyricist. One of my favorite songs by her among others.

This is such a great song. It is a Funky R&B tinged Disco masterpiece. I love the original album version as it has the most vocals and has all those lush instrumental sections.

Decent but I prefer several of her other tracks like "Square Biz", "Behind the Groove", and "Lovergirl".

Very nice. I like this one too. I feel that her music was getting progressively better around this time.
