This song was written in 1970 by Linda Creed and Thom Bell. It was a big hit for The Stylistics in 1971.

I remember when The Stylistics sang it. This song is really matched to Johnny's voice. Thanks for the background info.

@cybernautev i think Smoeky Robinson and The Miracles originally sung this song..if not they covered it also i guess

[cybernautev]

@P03TICS0UL91 Yes, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles did do it as the video is on YouTube. However, if my memory serves me correctly, stillgotit got it right as the Sylistics made it famous.

Always loved the Stylistics version of this and also like Johnny's voice/singing, but never realised he had sung this until now, thanx for adding this :)

Johnny is the best, but this is Stylistics all the way. I remember driving in downtown Dallas with my mom on a rainy day in the 70's and hearing the Stylistics play this!
