I've always been partial to "For Your Precious Love," but what's your favorite tune [[or tunes) with Butler on lead?

Hard to decide...he's one of my favorite singers. Happy Birthday, Jerry, and many more!!

My favorite Jerry Butler tune? It's a tie between "He Will Break Your Heart" and "Only the Strong Survive." Both went to number 1 on the R&B charts and made the top 10 on the pop charts.
Happy 71st. My favorites from him are "For Your Precious Love", "He Will Break Your Heart", "Never Gonna Give You Up", "Only the Strong Survive" and "Understanding Mellow".
Happy Birthday Jerry!!!!

GT, you must be reading my mind, "Strawberries " is a killer.......slow, deliberate, heartfelt....like JB himself...excellent choice.
Thanks ! That's a song you don't hear that often.
