Stephanie Mills - The Medicine Song Lyrics

I Loved this song when it came out!!! Lol

I was a Teenager Lady in 1984 now how did I missed seeing this Video in 1984. I love the Retro Neon Videos of the 1980s. Madam Stephanie Mills was and still is Elegantly Beautiful🙋🏾‍♀️

She sang her face off on this

If the dancing in this video was any more amazing, Michael Jackson would have been in this video!

What a voice! Sweet tune, nice costume changes, paging the 3 Stooges at the end. What's not to like? Sure glad this is here. "Pilot Error" is up too, and well worth your time.

You can find this song and many others at www.GouweOuweMuziek.nl!

I remember when I first saw this back in the mid-eighties, I was like, damn! That little girl from The Wiz grew up.
She can really belt out a song!
There are no female singers in R&B, Hip Hop, pop, whatever you want to call it, singing like that these days. Maybe in gospel.

I'm a lesbian. I'd wrap my whole mouth around her box and vacuum out her insides. That'll be my medicine hunny...

i'll take some of her medicine...

Stephanie Mills, all 4 feet of dynamite lol

I honestly was looking for a different song but still glad I found this.

What a great singer.

Fa vomitare

Jermaine Stewart... the word is out

her sex appeal is off the chart. wolfen

A UK top 30 pop hit

One of the funkiest songs of all time.

The 12" Long version of this song is the shiz-nik....Stephanie Mills....one of a kind...

Dam n still fine need i say more

Mama's gonna give you some medicine. Yes maam. Miss Mills vocals are astounding.

Stephanie is a A FIRECRACKER!!!

Lol 😊

i need my medicine right now,give it to me!!!!

Whatever doctor did her 👃 did a damn good job!! No tea no shade!

"MAMA'S GONNA GIVE YOU SOME MEDICINE"--Whoo Whoo! STEPH AT HER SAVAGE SEXIEST!

Fresh out the box and hot baby. And you can leave that modern rap right on the shelf.

this should fit for the knight rider background soundtrack.

She put the message across really good and loved it!

I love stephanie mills i have all the 12in singles from the 70s on up though the 90s movie soundtrack singles too i think she's not talked about enough when it comes to female signers when you hear that voice you know that's her doesn't matter if it's a slow jam or dance record

Stephanie Mills vocal poeerhouse legend worked this video. Song was produced by the late great legendary musicizn/producer George Duke.
We used to party to this song at Dillons in Westwood. Only a select few know about or remeber that place. Lol

Who's mother sang this while giving you Medice?

2018 💋

Doctor regenerated again.

This has got to be the silliest thing Stephanie Mills ever recorded, but still with her incredible voice and her gorgeousness, she still makes you really want to like this song! LOL

Classic 1984 production sound.

agree 100%

You better Take it- if you want to shake it (Med-DI-Son)) LOL! Loved it and still do - Its my best song from her (yeah, even better than Never knew love like this..) . You basically need to make a song and dance about stuff - this is it! Totally bad but good! Stephanie has some pipes in such a small body, and she looks good, she worked it as she does everything. Love her! Totally underrated. Big love to her for this and everything else she's done. Love the long play version of this. Got it for my 19th b'day. Some years after this song. Aaah.. Love it.

This song is God Awful, but Stephanie is killing them vocals!

Lololol.

I think it's better than "pilot error" a year prior.

Stephanie can by my MEDECINE anytime! I just love her voice!

OMG I forgot about this track. The industry would go down hill shortly after 1985 in regards to "black American music." Take notes.

R&B was at it's peak in the 80's.

Yes Stephanie, lead and background vocal, they just don't sing like that anymore

This song is awful, but Stephanie is absolutely adorable.

Love the 2:23 scene were she throw her arms up with her vocals!!!

music was fun then. fashions were fun and color. things were quite different that is for sure.

W A L K M A N 91 bought me here

M E T H .

good job

And at 1:18 a young boy (me) realized he didnt want to play with toys anymore

Stephanie was my MEDICINE SONG in the 80's, She still has a healing voice to me! WOWWWWWWW!!

All the grade things about the clip only add to the experience of pure 80s.

OMG, haven't heard this song since it first came out in 1984. Found it by accident!

I always take hot mess to be good thing lol I love everything! Song is on fire 🔥! x

Just what the Doc Order, ha ha, xxx

This is porn from the quiet shy glasses-wearing librarian stable. Remove your glasses and blow the dust off my lengthy tome...

NURSE MED'S PLEASE!!! LOL. XXX

Easily the biggest, most luscious lips in showbiz, who's got pilot error plz???

She is the best female vocalist after Whitney Houston and Anita Baker.

The Diva declamation, "Go on, and TAKE IT!"

I had forgot just how "badd" she was and her vocal range, ( you better go sistah

Darryl Perry I have not forgotten!!

entered Billboard Oct 13, 1984 reached #65 ..reached #1 on Dance Chart

Top 30 hit in the UK as well.

Fabulous words for a fabulous song for a fabulous person.. Stephanie you and your voice hit all the records and win x x x

You gotta take it, if you wanna shake it!

okay, i'll just say it: where are the hot guys in this video. stephanie has the cure! where are the men to receive their medicine?

This is embarrassing, so silly.

This is embarrassing, so silly.

this video scares me

Walkman 91- Meth

this video is sooooo damn cheesy and yet Stephanie pulled it off!!! love it!!

Anthony Ogans lol 😂😈

Michael Jackson should have married Stephanie Mills when he had the chance.

+The Black Goddess WORD. Gimme DAT Cookie. SMILE.

Second Story oh they should it would be fly though.

Yeah he would have turned out a lot better because she woulda kept him grounded to reality!

Yes he should have smh, she was the only one who truly loved him.

I had such a crush on her.

she favors nene leaks

que de tubes en 1984 ! ☺👍

This song has been in my head so long I dreaded listening to it.....and here I am :)

HI STEFF, IT'S THE DOCTOR HERE! GIRL THIS SONG STILL HAS ONE OF THE MOST BADASS BASS AND GUITAR LICKS EVER! THE LYRICS ARE PRETTY SUBLIME TOO.. MUCH RESPECT. Xx

I love Miss. Mills!

i love her and her music but mannn lmaooo this is one of the worst 80s videos ive seen.

Stephanie I hope you ain't married, cause Oooooh you finer than all outdoors, good gawd Almighty
black caramel women are my afrodisiac

I think it's time for a sequel: Mama's gonna give you some Medicare!

(Singing) Ohhhhh' use your Medicare...

Was the year that I came out......did I think it was a bad move ? But then I discovered Dancin n Poppers !! lol

westminsterguys

1984...right when AIDS was at it's height...a bad choice considering the love affair between us gay men and disco divas....

+Daniel Pena You don't have to be a bitch about it. I was simply passing on what I had heard

Stick it up your ass douchebag

+Joey Lars whatever

dirtydiscosecrets being a gay male back then was not easy. the stigma of aids was horrible. the religious right had a lot of control in the government. reagan didnt do anything about it.

Let's just be glad the cure is here, and precious lives are saved😄.

Of all the songs NOT to be on her Vevo channel is Pilot Error... get real

+Marty Moose Yes and also "Something in the way" (You make me feel)

She is great-but the song is not. Only the vocals kept me listening.

You need a little bit of this medicine, mama gonna give you some medicine

Stephanie mills and Eddie murphy could be siblings I think they both are attractive he's hot so is she !!! id take them both yes!!!!!

she's a chocolate doll....and one of my favorite songs.

Her vocals are SICK.... The BEST!!!

@Koolson1 they're so sick ,she needs medicine.....i'm sorry i had too

+clint johnson lol

Samiyo true true

Man!! She's a shorti!!!

+Carl Jordan 4'9"

Less than 5 feet I think. Cute as a bug!

better voice than many of gay divas!

Love it! Awesome dancing too

Everything from the hair, to the makeup, and the outfits were a hot mess. LMAO. Poor thing.

It was the 80s, and entire ten year hot mess. Surely you can give her a pass on it being 1984?

It was the 80s. People thought this was the shit back then.

+torres songs I know what it was supposed to be. I was a teen during it. I was indeed judging it by 80s standards. I repeat: Hot mess! It screams cheap production and low-budget!

+plutorama All the reasons I love it!

LOL, one of my childhood friends who is OCD could not deal with this video because the black skirt did not go all the way around, hilarious times :)

One of the GREATS!!, in the business a long time!!!

The 80s omg

Lol I use to sing this song to my sister. She hates the taste of medicine. I always made her cry.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I am cracking up!!!

Haha I randomly started singing this to my best friend last week on a vacation in France. He almost started crying as now we all sing this to him. Great song!

My mama sang this to us when giving us medicine too!!! 😂 😭 😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Aint never know of this song.   she was good singer of mine from elementary.  let me hear this song and come back on it

+SOTBP Conference Ok baby, we'll wait right here for you.

hmm! wait where. 

Sulphur & Nitrogen, is Ova' Here

Waitin' fer y'all to come back on it sugah!

seul titre vraiment connu en France (1984-85), période très riche en tubes, 
pas comme maintenant!!

Still luv this song

I agree 💯 percent with you my friend 👋👋!!!!!! This song is off the hook!!!! No doubt!!!! Love you Stephanie!!!! Will always be a fan of yours 😉!!!!! I have the same 12 inch album of this song!!!! Peace out for now ✌✌😎!!!!!

oh the 80s...dark and bizarre decade :D

+greg battles real talk!

+igorsutak Actually it was the end of a very dark age. The last vestiges of homophobia, misogyny, and racism were breathing their last breath in the 80s. Thank goodness the 90s and 2000s have brought more diversity and acceptance.

+greg battles I disagree. Having lived as a gay man in the 80s I can tell you that things are much better. However we still have a long way to go.

I had a great time in the 80s.  No I have never wanted to be anything but a man.  My comment was about the social mores of the time.  You're black?  What a shock!

haha I think its good for 1984, her voice is amazing, and I loooove her face.
