Most of Bettye's fans that she has gathered over the last 10 years are not aware of her 1982 Motown album, Tell Me A Lie. It was briefly re-issued on CD in 2009 in a limited edition. Anyway, one of my favorite songs by her is on that album. It makes me cry every single time I hear it. I just think it's beautiful. She performed it one night at the Carlyle last week. Here is the original version.
