Motown's Sylvia Moy on her famous hit song "My Cherie Amour"

One of my all time favourite songs. The hairs on the back of my neck stand on end whenever i hear it. Simply beautiful.

And then Stevie had to write Sylvia! Well her name is on it too... but that's funny.

Well Sylvia did save Stevie's butt in the eyes of Motown. Before she co-wrote "Uptight", Berry was going to drop Stevie from the label.

Thanks for posting Marv. When I was last in Detroit I tried to meet her but never got the chance. She wrote my favorite song, "With A Child's Heart" and is truly a fantastic songwriter.

You are most welcome Thomas . I don't believe Sylvia's work has been discussed here in recent years.
