Mel Carter....I had to go see who that was.  Oh, I used to love that song, @sabatini.  I played it 3 times, back to back.  He had a fantastic voice but he must have been a one hit wonder.

I'm glad you enjoyed the song!  I think it's wildly romantiic.

ETA: I LOVE this Aretha song/video, 'cause you get to see her fantastic piano skills! And, that girl can SING!

I didn't click on your link, but I always loved Mel Carter's Hold Me.

Like most of you, I love all songs Motown! My favorite one to sing, though, is Freda Payne's Band of Gold. 

Motown!! Now I want to find out if Sirius has a Motown channel. Anyone know?

Love Motown, hard to pick a favorite. Speaking of Motown I met and talked with a very nice man at physical therapy, he mentioned his nephew sings with The Temptations. He called him while we were chatting to ask where they were performing I believe he said in Nashville.

       I absolutely love that song.  Joan Osborne does a great version of it too.  I love listening to her sing it with The Funk Brothers who backed most of the artists that were on Motown.

    I also love "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Marvin Gaye.

      He wasn't on Motown but the Johnny Mathis version of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" is to die for.   They used Johnny's version in the movie  "To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar".
