My Ross top ten album songs

[daviddh]

Hard to narrow down.
So many gems
Never say I don't love you
My baby my own
You were the one
Friend to friend
Give up
That's how you start over
Come in from the rain
Too many nights
Carry On
Love will conguer all

Fav Ross singles.

Not over you yet remix
Ain't no mountain
Remember me
Good morning heartache
Love hangover
One love in my lifetime
Getting ready for love
If you're not gonna love me right
Take me higher
One shining moment.

This would be a good concert..
Bubbling under...

In the ones you love
Thought it took time to fall in love
Touch me in the morning.
If the world just danced
No one gets the prize

I see in the Diana Ross Simply Singing thread that you mention your desire that she record a standards album. I'm not opposed to that, but she's done the old standards- and the type- so much back in the day that I'm not all that excited about it.

I would like to see her do an album or show of jazz and blues arrangements of songs she's already recorded:

A Breathtaking Guy
Where Did Our Love Go
A Simple Thing Like Cry
Brown Baby
Love Hangover
It's My Turn
Swept Away
Your Heart Belongs To Me
All Night Lover
I Heard a Love Song

[RanRan79]

I forgot one! I also would love if she recorded or performed a jazz or blues rendition of "I Thought It Took a Little Time".

That’s interesting, as i thought your list a load of old trollocks as well.
I really love Diana doing these slow r&b jams, being how i selected my personal faves.

Forgot to add my very favourite DR performance of all time “God Bless The Child”
For me Diana is the only performer who fully captures the essence of the song, with M’s Holiday running a close second.
It certainly made some of her doubters sit up and take note.

Diana does indeed nail the song, but I heartily disagree [in a spirit of friendly debate] that anyone could ever "capture [its] essence" better than Holiday, who wrote the song herself in a fit of pique after a fight with her mother about money. The song is hers and hers alone, and no one holds a candle to her emotional investment in it.

I know exactly where your coming from as i’m a huge BH fan. My opinion is based solely on interpretation, and despite Billie having written the song, it’s Diana's poignant, almost wistful interpretation that moves me the most. I also feel the same about “Good Morning Heartache”, but that’s where it ends.
