As a House music D.J., i know of her stuff well. I have quite a few records that use her voice as a sample. Two that come to mind are "Love Dancin" by Roger S and "Rose Rouge" by St. Germain. These are some great house tracks that use her voice. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

She's one of those that I only know by name and often mean to listen to. I like that she has an album called Who Is This Bitch Anyway?  | |

Yeah, she's from the tough mouthed school(Millie, Shirley, Betty, Barbara and Denise). But she's abit more polished comparing to them
You'll find most of her stuff enjoyable. | |

In 1979,she released a disco album 'Take A Bite' with a very provocative album cover:
Hey,if Donna Summer can appear on the cover of her album dressed like a prostitute,why shouldn't Marlena be allowed to show a little skin too? | |

[Edited 1/18/07 10:28am] You should check out Shaw`s version, it`s really good Although i`m a big fan of Gladys Knight, i didn`t love her take on this song... | |
