  • God bless the Detroit Symphony Orchestra,The Andantes and the Funk Brothers for bringing such beautiful music into our lives.

  • Oh my god!!! You are kidding me "sandfordway". this is the first time i hear this version....

    You made my day!!

    Subbed!

  • My gosh...this was posted a year and a half ago...how did I miss it??? A better question is why did Motown sit on this classic for so long before releasing it? I knew Stevie was just 19 when the song was released, but I had no idea that they waited almost 2 yrs. He was only 17 when the seeds of it were planted! Thank you SO much for this post...the Funk Brothers were the absolute backbone of Motown Records and never got the credit they truly deserve.

  • I'm not at all surprised Motown had this in the can for two years before issuing it. One of Motown's biggest problems (a fortunate problem at that) was that they had too much material to choose from. Some of the best material the label produced ended up delegated as b-sides, album cuts, a-sides that weren't pushed or even unreleased. The deeper you delve into the wealth of Motown recordings the more amazed you'll become.

  • @PJDooWop That is very true.

  • Wow!!! Great job by Hank Cosby, Stevie Wonder, Silvia Moy and of course all of the musicians....Thanx for posting this one.

  • Heavenly!

  • I LOVE MOTOWN!

  • A lot people forget that the Detroit symphony orchestra played on a lot of Motown songs with the strings.

  • @0163J and they played a HUGE part in our musical history - God bless 'em all!!

  • ol' skool kool...thanx4thepost !

  • damn funky good

    very nice!

  • This is SMOOTHER THAN SILK!!!

  • Man...so many things came out during that time...I honestly wish that music came out this time...makes me jealous because nothing's being produced this generation that I can honestly say is good. Just stuff to dance to, but nothing...memorable like this...not legendary. This music was really the stuff of Real Life Legends...

  • Simply great. Thank you much. Any chance you can post the instrumental of the flip of this, Stevie's "I Don't Know Why (I Love You)"?

  • nice

  • Just discovered this, simply amazing, I'm speechless. I need to listen to this with some good speakers.

    Great sound quality. Thanks

  • Brill. The stereo mix too.

  • wow, awesome! where'd you find this?!
