Diana Ross is one of the most recognized and celebrated names to be birthed from Motown. During her career, she helped influence other female groups from past to present, from The Three Degrees, The Emotions and The Pointer Sisters to TLC and Destiny’s Child. The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, and pop music’s reigning queen diva Beyoncé have cited her as a major influence in their careers. Ross’s catalogue is extensive; with the Supremes, as a solo artist and dueting with other musicians, it contains many memorable, timeless hits.

We collected your votes for nearly two weeks and now it’s time to see what songs made the Top 10 and which was chosen as number one. As you scroll down, you’ll see the competition for the top spot wasn’t very close at all.

uninspired list, to say the least ...

[smark21]

Not a very exciting list…obviously picked from the Diana Ross/Supremes songs on the WCBS playlist.

Nine out of ten were on the list. Love Child secured the #10 spot as a write-in.

Would the list have more validity if "Good Morning Heartache" or "We Are The Children Of The World" made it? The casual fans remember all ten of those songs because they were all number ones burned into their minds from years of airplay. This poll obviously wasn't for the die-hard Motown buffs. Perhaps we should have a poll here and see what wins?

Great list, but I kinda think "Upside Down" as well as "I'm Coming Out" [[not on list - seriously "Love Child is more known than "I'm Coming Out??"), as they are both massively well-known feel-good PARTY anthems, should be nos. 2,3, or 4, ahead of "Touch Me In The Morning".
