Anita Pointer, founding member of the Pointer Sisters, dies at age 74 Anita Pointer, one of the founding members of the Pointer Sisters, died Saturday, her family announced. She was 74. "While we are deeply saddened by the loss of Anita, we are comforted in knowing she is now with her daughter, Jada & her sisters June & Bonnie and at peace," her family said in a statement. "She was the one that kept all of us close & together for so long. Her love of our family will live on in each of us. … Heaven is a more loving beautiful place with Anita there." Pointer's only daughter Jada Pointer died in 2003, & her sisters Bonnie & June died in 2020 and 2006 respectively. Ruth, Anita, Bonnie and June, born the daughters of a minister who also had two older sons, grew up singing in his church in Oakland, California. The quartet brought a unique fusion of funk, soul and 1940s-style jazz, scat & pop to their act, often dressing in a retro style that resembled their forerunners the Andrews Sisters. They worked as backup singers for Taj Mahal, Boz Scaggs, Elvin Bishop & others before releasing their self-titled debut album in 1973, & the song "Yes We Can Can," a funky anthem calling for unity & tolerance, became their breakout hit. They followed up with "That's A Plenty," which featured an eclectic mix of musical styles ranging from jazz to gospel to pop. They even delved into country. Bonnie & Anita co-wrote the song "Fairytale" about a crumbling relationship. The song earned them a groundbreaking gig performing as a rare African American act at the Grand Ole Opry, & they would win their first Grammy, for best country vocal performance by a group. Bonnie Pointer left the group in 1977, signing a solo deal with Motown Records. Her three sisters, who had nearly disbanded when she quit, instead regrouped, shed their retro image for a modern pop sound, & became one of the biggest acts of the 1980s with huge hits including "He's So Shy," "Jump (For My Love)" & "Neutron Dance." Following Bonnie Pointer's death in 2020, Anita Pointer said the group "would never have happened had it not been for Bonnie." #PointerSisters #AnitaPointer https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm3QGzvMtrm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Letra

Tonight's the night we're gonna make it happen Tonight we'll put all other things aside Give in this time and show me some affection We're goin' for those pleasures in the night

I want to love you, feel you Wrap myself around you I want to squeeze you, please you I just can't get enough And if you move real slow, I'll let it go

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it I'm about to lose control and I think I like it I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I want you

And we shouldn't even think about tomorrow Sweet memories will last a long, long time And we'll have a good time, baby, don't you worry And if we're still playin' around, boy, that's just fine

Let's get excited, we just can't hide it I'm about to lose control and I think I like it I'm so excited and I just can't hide it And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I want you, I want you Oh yes I do

Oh boy, I want to love you, feel you Honey wrap myself around you I want to squeeze you, please you No I just can't get enough And if you move real slow, I'll let it go

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it I'm about to lose control and I think I like it I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know I want you, I want you

Look what you do to me You got me burning up (Burning up) How did you get to me? I've got to give it up

And I'm so excited (Look what you do to me) Oh boy (You got me burning up) I'm burning up yeah, oh I think I like it (Yeah) You, you, you, you, you got me (I've got to give it up) (Oh oh oh oh) Oh, ooh I like it boy And I'm so excited (Look what you do to me) And I just can't hide it (You got me burning up)

#undíacomohoy nace: Anita Pointer, nacida el 23 de enero de 1948, es una cantante de soul y R&B estadounidense, es la segunda hermana mayor de la formación musical The Pointer Sisters. Formó parte de la banda desde su creación en 1972. A finales de los '70 y principios de la siguiente década tuvo un periodo en solitario en RCA, no con mucho éxito, lo que la hizo volver a volcarse en The Pointer Sisters. En solitario tan sólo llegó a las listas de ventas en 1987 con el tema "Overnight Sucess". Sigue en activo colaborando con diferentes bandas y álbumes, habiendo sido el último "All star tribute to Cher" (2005), donde versiona el tema "Take me home". #anitapointer #singer🎤 #thepointersisters #birthday #borntoday #happybirthday🎉🎈🎁🎂GcastilloR
