Back in '66 I was not keen on this. I was just a kid and to my young ears it sounded a bit old fashioned & grown up. Now of course I adore and it's one of the few songs that Martha can still sing, properly!

I thought the song and its B-side should have been included on the Watchout LP.
^ Interesting. Yeah why didn't it make that album?
I think that a 'Greatest Hits' album released in '66 got in the way as it appeared on there. The Marvelettes were another act who had several singles appear on 'Greatest Hits' but never on a regular studio album.
^ Yeah same can be said about Marvin.
I'm having a senior moment. I know that there is a gospel version of this but right now I can remember neither the title [[it's similar) nor artist. Help please!

My all time favourite by Martha and The Vandellas. A wonderful performance [[and the Four Tops too).
You of course mean Martha & The Andantes with the Four Tops. The Vandellas had gone shopping!
Also my favorite or close to favorite M & the Vandellas song.
