Which Rick and Teena duet do you prefer.... Fire and Desire or Happy?
I like F & D, but I love Happy. I rarely hear anyone talk about Happy. **whydiditypefireandiceedit** [Edited 8/20/06 23:53pm] | |

I like F & I, but I love Happy. I rarely hear anyone talk about Happy. [Edited 8/20/06 14:48pm] I love both of those songs. But I'll vote for F&D first. BTW, I also like Call Me (I Got Your Number). | |

'HAPPY' is a seriously under played Classic. I LOVE that song but can never find it. F n D is overplayed but it's still a good tune. | |

Fire & Desire is still the one that kills every ballad out here today! They just reworte the rules of what every duet ballad should be... Check me out and add me on:

No one is good enough to do a cover version of that song. And what woman do you know that can take Teena's parts? Mariah, maybe? | |

Oh please God don't give them any ideas This song should be left the fuck alone. And Mariah lacks the passion necessary imo - this song is thunderous & emotional, she could yell it but she can't feel it... | |

No remakes, ever!!! | |

It's another Rick James/Teena Marie duet that appears on Rick's 1982 album 'Throwin Down'. | |

See, now... I had to go fire up the turntable and put on "Throwin' Down"- equipped with tha 'crackle 'n' pop'! "You go from the bottom of my toes to the top of my head..." "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

I prefer 'Happy' at this point, but that's mostly because 'Fire & Desire' is approaching 'I don't ever have to hear it again' status. Nah, I shouldn't say "mostly". 'Happy' is the jam on its own merits. | |

Agreed! "Fire and Desire" is spectacular,but they play it too damn much! If I don't hear it again anytime in the next five years,that's okay with me.I feel the same way about other overplayed songs like "Sexual Healing" and "Between The Sheets". | |

Funny you mention 'Between The Sheets', because that was the other overplayed song I mentioned in another thread. Along with the live version of 'Devotion'. | |
