If she wrote this, my hat's off to her. Good lyrics. But OMG. She should have hired a producer because her voice was not working the way she produced this song. Still, I could hear the potential. Could become the next campy gay anthem.
No she is overusing the vibrado and operatics. Her voice is still good it's just the style doesnt work for her voice. long steady notes from her sound better.This actually sounds like karaoke.
Thanks for the comment, No, she is not overusing her vibrato, the style does suit her. plus she wrote and arranged AND produced this song. and WOW the first bad/hater comment in 289 views :-)
A hater is someone who uses jealousy or envy as a basis for criticism. Stating an opinion is not hating. Because you like it doesnt mean others have to. It doesnt appeal to me and I have a right to say so. I never said there werent live instruments I said it sounded like karaoke meaning it sounds like an amateur singing for recreation. her voice is waving all over the place and she doesnt hold 1 steady noted. You like it which is your right. I don't like it which is my right.
of course living legend Martha Reeves still has it ..never a doubt in my mind about that...she has always had it.. a true, genuine heartfelt soulful pro!

I thought people said she wasnt yodeling on this? she is yodeling like hell. Her voice changed so much. The only singers who's voices havent changed are Gladys Knight and Donna Summer.
I think she still has a pretty 'AWESOME' Voice.Haven't heard this album,but, I kinda agree with 'fannyc99',I think she is capable of far better than this song.Loved her yrs ago,so, thanx 4 posting this cos it's GR8 2 no she's still singing,+ WELL! X
I love Martha. always have, but the smoking took it's toll, this isn't bad, but there is a vid here with her and Patty Labelle and it's awful...

Martha Reeves is a legend. I like this joint though I feel she would've truly tore it up during the Motown period. ;)
Nice tho.

Wow, this sounds pretty decent. The production is nice - much better than the production on Diana's lastest album "I Love You".
Plus, Martha sounds great - no yodel =)
