Your love is amazing-the four tops
What a hard one Marv, what about Marvin Gaye`s "Your Unchanging Love" great bass line too!Sorry I`m too dumb to post the music.

...good choices so far ...I hope there's room for my all-time favourite Motown recording ...the b-side of Barbara Randolph's brilliant ...I Got A Feeling ...just like the b-side more...!
You Got Me Hurtin' All Over

NGroove you are really coming up with some good ones from throughout the "Motown Era". Thank you!
Thank you very much.
I believe I shall define the "Motown Era" as 1959 - 1986, as Motown was still actively pumping the hits, both pop and soul, before Motown became more affiliated as "oldies", more used by movies and Richard Simmons.
And, gives me just excuse to include this snappy, memorable favorite from the group who started as funk, but became more known for ballads.

...another one for consideration ...would be this fantastic Motown sound ...from The Originals ...why it was never a hit ...and why it's never been issued on CD ...is totally beyond me...!!
Thanks Grapevine. We are sharing some that I had not thought of. All are very good songs:

Starting to get concerned about lack of Junior Walker. Ah well, first entry of his will be one of them "pretty" Johnny Bristol productions.

And I'll 2nd that nod to Jr. Walker with "Right On Brothers And Sisters".

With a child's heart-stevie wonder
here's one by The Four Tops featuring the Andantes that I like to revisit on occasion:

Just curious ...does this song make anyone else sad, melancholy ? Is it me or the composition ....
what a voice

One of Smokey's classic compositions, recorded by The Marvelettes. Probably his most covered song ever. Still, this is the iconic version by which all others are measured.
Marvelettes "The Hunter Gets Captured By The Game"

I cry-the miracles...going way back with this one.
