This One's for You is an album by the American musician Teddy Pendergrass. [1] 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. [2] 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.
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." [3]
