The Four Tops-Walk Away Renee

[MACJO63]

Love this version so much more than the Left Banke..Motown was such a class act inside and out , and this is a prime example..No one could do it like Levi and the Tops....growing up in Chicago, Motown ruled the airwaves..they will always be #1...Great memories here..

[Rollin558]

Great cover of the Left Banke classic. Both versions are first rate.

[jwrodzak]

The Left banks is good but not like this. Its the deep soulful voice of Levi here that does it!

[jwrodzak]

Nothing ever beats an original or the 4-Tops

[2mortar1]

awesome

[lasktguy]

Dang, I don't even remember this version of this song but it is amazing! Love the original too but it's a totally different style then this. They're both great.

HI, WHAT INCREDIBLE "CLOSE" HARMONY THE FOUR TOPS HAD! THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES AND THE FUN,TOM D. BRICK,NJ. {AT THE SHORE}.

[BENNYGPRODUCTIONS]

the left bankes better

[Jaysond78]

@BENNYGPRODUCTIONS  agreed but both are good

[57irvgold]

But a 16 year old keyboard player for the Left Bank wrote it!

[m23c2sh]

@57irvgold I love the Left Banke's version, for the sensitivity of it and the meaning it has for the keyboardist, but there is something to be said for the passion in this version by the Four Tops, and the backup singers sound almost angelic to me. They are both great, but it's just a great song.

[BlankUberAlles]

Sure miss this kind'a music in today's pop scene

[roberttylerful]

england and what at a classic x

[75crowebar]

[nedthebed07]

One of the coolest songs of the 60's massive singing, makes you cry.

[LasVegasJim]

I was in the audience for the Four Tops at the Orleans Casino in Las Vegas several months ago. I had tears with this song. It is so powerful. Thanks.

[taurusjb]

Love the Four Tops, but the original by Left Banke is far superior in my opinion

[BTOPENWORLD]

SO SUPERB..... BUT JEAN AND LEVI WERE THE BEST? ERRRR SUPREMES AND FOUR TOPS. BLESS THEM

[2001perseus]

Gotta be one of the greatest songs ever unless you don't have a soul.

[tigrl2]

[lonemooseranch]

I grew up with both versions and love them both dearly. Chris in Tulsa

Fantastic voice of the late great Levi Stubbs.

[pitbullgirl65]

I avoided this song for years because it triggered memories of a lost love. Beautiful. They don't make them like this anymore. :/

[lazydaisydays]

Absolutely love this as opposed to the Left Banke; listen to their passion here. Love it; thanks for sharing:-)
