heaven must have sent you - THE ELGINS

[ivorlottandtonybroke]

Brilliant, simple but rocking, very happy and very human song. Count me among the 666 devotees of really great music and ignore the 7 Philistines.

[trebilco58]

brilliant song don't know about bonnie pointer but still goof dance sound ktf

[rin3guy]

This song reached #50 in 1966. (U.S., Billboard) -- All I can say about that is, there must have been 49 really, really spectacular songs on that chart that week !

[MrByrdbath]

@rin3guy ..maybe, but when reissued in the UK in the v. early 70's it peaked at 3( I think - maybe 2 )...should've got to 1..it's that good!

[shaggybristol]

@rin3guy ..... you'll be pleased to hear that this quality track went Top 3 in the UK June 1971 ........ I think you guys across the pond missed a trick there!! :P

[rin3guy]

@shaggybristol -- Awesome! Thanks for letting me know. Something somewhere surely went amiss in the US, but it would not be the first time lol. I have noted the superior UK charting in my music record book.

[SweetStangHeat]

OMG I remember this song!

[oldielover48]

Thanks for the memories!

[MrByrdbath]

Hooley Dooley....am I the oldest person on this page - 59....ah well - I danced to this fantastic slice of Motown heaven way back in "72/'73.....and mentally I'm still on the floor!

[ladymuziklover]

@MrByrdbath lol it's all good

[vanc33]

love it

[OskingBlunts]

I will sock someone who trys to tell me Bonnie Pointer did this song before the Elgins. This song was done in 66', Pointers jam was 79'.

[nyseamex]

@OskingBlunts haha!!! that made me smile :D

[colinpaulturner]

Supremes did it first though, I believe.

[rainz420]

@OskingBlunts Yea, both songs are clearly labled with the years... Do you just want to punch people that cant read? Smoke one Osking, wheres the 'M' in your name?

[Wagnerian52]

@OskingBlunts YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT...!!!

AND NO ONE CAN DO IT BETTER...!!!

A JOURNEY INTO A BEAUTIFUL PAST FILLED WITH GREAT SOUNDS AND MEANINGFUL LYRICS..!!!

BRAVO..!!!

[intruderm1800]

Hey you know Bonnie Pointer did OOOWWWWCH! make nice jam.

LOL

NIce tune. Hope you did not take offence at the humour

[scruff241]

@OskingBlunts yeh great song the flip side is just as great,but i thought that the song was later than 66 but around 69.....is this not so

[tokalosh1956]

so many great memories when i was young the music got me through what was a nightmare childhood but how i wish i could go back again

[stresshead65]

im 16, and i've been brought up around this kind of music, and i have to say this song is amazing, i love it.

[gr8gabe314]

@stresshead65 Im in the same boat as you. 16 and love the oldies, born and raised by the Temptations, Brenton wood, Earth Wind & Fire, Heatwave and The Manhattans.

[mohinderbauer]

@stresshead65 That's great. When I was 16, I listened mostly to Motown.

[MELLYBOY58]

[MrAurel40]

xxXxx

[thegrandwazoooo]

ok where are you now

[Picnicl]

I was just trying to find some Motown songs that I especially like - I thought that 3 of them sounded pretty similar to each other: The Supremes- Where did our love go , The Elgins- Heaven must have sent you and The Four Tops-I Can't Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch). Then I saw that Holland Dozier Holland were behind all 3. Great songs but it shows that once you get a great song you don't just write it once!

[Dalp1974]

Memories of my mum,dad and uncle.....bought up right on sound!Cheers,great upload
