Smooth, Slow, Soulful and….

sung 30 years ago in the year 1983.

There has been many memorable versions of this song and a few transcendent versions.  This one qualifies along with Whitney Houston, Jose Feliciano and Jimmy Hendrix.

I clearly remember listening to it way back then as it was sung.  The game that followed, just an after thought.

A year later Marvin Gaye would be dead, shot by his own father.

  1. This was definately memorable, but I still think that Whitney Houston sung it the best. Marvin Gaye did have a beautiful voice though. :)
