"This Gift of Life / Nine Times Out of Ten" Released: April 21, 1982
"I Can't Win For Losing / Don't Leave Me Out Along the Road" Released: September 13, 1982
This One's for You is an album by the American musician Teddy Pendergrass. It was released just after a bad car accident Pendergrass was involved in, which left him paralyzed from the waist down due to a spinal cord injury. The album did not do as well as his previous albums did on the Billboard 200, peaking at only No. 59, but it did do well on the R&B album chart, reaching No. 6. One single was released, "I Can't Win for Losing", which peaked at No. 32 on the R&B charts.
Critical reception
The Globe and Mail wrote: "Although he occasionally gets bogged down in the big and over-syrupy Gamble-Huff production, numbers such as 'The Gift of Life' and 'This One's for You' are moving, emotive and sensually rendered ballads of the first rank."
