Now, you're movin on up, pretty baby, you're leavin me behind

(First line of Try It Baby - Diana Ross and the Supremes and the Temptations, sung by Melvin, I believe)

Come Softly To Me - Sandpipers

I’ve not seen anything like this - could you aim us where we could read it?

Millificent (the witch from Sleeping Beauty)

Disco Lady - Johnny Taylor

Let Me Be The One - Carpenters etc.

Bad Moon Rising - Creedence Clearwater Revival

All the Befores - Diana Ross

It is likely Discogs responding to a legal threat.

At some stage, Motown should have released I Will Survive.

Berry made any number of mistakes while he ran things but nothing compared to the missteps after he left.

Take Me Higher - Diana Ross
