Theodore DeReese "Teddy" Pendergrass (March 26, 1950 – January 13, 2010) was an American R&B/soul singer and songwriter. He first rose to fame as lead singer of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes in the 1970s before a successful solo career at the end of the decade. In 1982, Pendergrass was severely injured in an auto accident in Philadelphia, resulting in his being paralyzed from the chest down. He subsequently founded the Teddy Pendergrass Alliance, a foundation that helps those with spinal cord injuries. He commemorated 25 years of living after his spinal cord injury with the star-filled event, "Teddy 25 - A Celebration of Life", at Philadelphia's Kimmel Center. His last performance was on a PBS special at Atlantic City's Borgata Casino in November 2008.
Early life
Born Theodore DeReese Pendergrass on March 26, 1950 at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, he was the only child of Jesse and Ida Geraldine (née Epps) Pendergrass. When he was still very young, his father left the family; Jesse was fatally chest-stabbed on June 13, 1962. Pendergrass grew up in Philadelphia and sang often at church. He dreamed of being a pastor and got his wish when, at 10, he was ordained a minister (according to author Robert Ewell Greene). Pendergrass also took up drums during this time and was a junior deacon of his church. He attended Thomas Edison High School for Boys in North Philadelphia (now closed). He sang with the Edison Mastersingers. He dropped out in the eleventh grade to enter the music business, recording his first song "Angel With Muddy Feet". The recording, however, was not a commercial success.
Released in 1977. It did well for a debut album, reaching #17 on the USBillboard 200 and #5 on the BillboardR&B albumchart. Two singles were released: "I Don't Love You Anymore"; and "The Whole Town's Laughing at Me", reaching #41 pop & #5 R&B; and R&B #16, respectively.
From his 1978 Philadelphia International album "Life Is A Song Worth Singing".

Lyrics:
Close the door
Let me rub your back where you say it's sore
Come on get closer and closer, so close to me
Let's get lost in each other, come here baby
I've waited all day long
Just to hold you in my arms
And it's exactly like I thought it would be

I grew up with men who wore pinky rings and you know, men who kept their nails clean and long, and like love to wear high-waisted suits; and I feel like I dress like Teddy Pendergrass, The Isley ...

For example, have you ever really paid attention to “Come Go With Me” by Teddy Pendergrass? In the song, Teddy is trying to convince a woman he has just met at the club to leave with him and go to his place.
