I remember when Randy first released this album and looking at some of the unconventional songs she chose to cover, I thought perhaps she had gone over the edge! lol But, I was pleasantly surprised at how well she handled the selections. She took songs like this one and Joyce Sim's "Come Into My Life" and made them her own instead of trying to copy the originals. I usually HATE cover albums but I think "Naked to the World" is her best album.

"Naked and True." LOL! Teena Marie's album was "Naked to the World." wink

Hungry? Just look in the mirror and get fed up.

Oh, sorry!lol "Naked & True". when I was responding to the original post, I was in the process of deciding whether or not I was going to replace my original Teena "Naked to the World" CD with the reissue. lol
