Your personal opinion-the one miracles song that should've been a single?

[arr&bee]

I love talking about the miracles,so many great songs so for me the one that should've been a [45]was the beautiful[my love for you]which is of course from the lp[make it happen]this love sonnet is almost ahead of it's time with it's sincere message that holds up even today,but that's just my choice,what's your's?

Would I Love You, a b-side should have been an a-side

From the Billy Griffin period I can thing of two that should have been singles. What Is A Heart Good For should have been the lead single off of Renaissance. You Are Love should have followed Do It Baby as a single.

[Motown Eddie]

Good question. "After You Put Back The Pieces [[I'll Still Have A Broken Heart)" from Make It Happen would've made a great single for Smokey Robinson & The Miracles [[and "I Think We Can Make It" from Lost And Found-Along Came Love should've been either a single or an LP cut).

"More, More, More of Your Love"

[jbpintus]

I promise I had made my choice before reading any of today’s threads on The Miracles.

Came to mind instantly WOULD I LOVE YOU, MORE MORE MORE OF YOUR LOVE and WE CAN MAKE IT WE CAN.
I also think the 1970 version of GET READY was a serious single candidate.

'No Wonder Love's A Wonder' from One Dozen Roses. I thought this was the standout track on the album when released. Love the Tarplin led guitar riff and the spoken verses throughout the track from Smokey is a delight.

Love this track

[MIKEW-UK]

I thought 'Would I Love You'. I remember hearing it all those many years ago and thinking how lovely and delicate it was. I see others above have already nominated which is great. B side but really an A side.

Can You Love a Poor Boy

[mysterysinger]

Not a single contender I think but a certain ab fab "If I Were A Bell" - this is excellent.

[alexstassi]

"No wonder loves a wonder" standout track from One Dozen Rose's.

[alexstassi]

"From Head To Toe"!!!

I remember one time when it played from shuffle my mum starting grooving along quite unexpectedly, having never heard it before and having told me she wasn’t a fan of Smokey!!!!

It's A Good Good Feeling

There was a Chicago DJ back in the 80s who played It's A Good Feeling as if it were a single. Really surprised me that it wasn't just me who thought this was an obvious choice.

A Fork In The Road
You Must Be Love
I Love You Dear

[RanRan79]

"Oh Baby, Baby I Love You" would get my vote.

[arr&bee]

"oh baby, baby i love you" would get my vote.

oh baby is actually a..b-side.

[RanRan79]

oh baby is actually a..b-side.

Yes it was, but it should've been an A side. I like it so much better than "La La".

[snakepit]

IMO anything would have been better than "La La"...what was going on there?

I agree with this choice, a very commercial sounding song. I also would have liked Marvin & Tammi to have recorded it and released it as a single with a cheeky video.

[splanky]

I can't believe A Fork In The Road was not released as a single, at least as a b-side. I
used to give relatives a whole new record collection simply by flipping over records some
of them never did....

[wilxy]

Show me you can dance......

[snakepit]

"Fork in the road" was the b side of "Tracks of my tears"

[TomatoTom123]

I agree with this choice, a very commercial sounding song. I also would have liked Marvin & Tammi to have recorded it and released it as a single with a cheeky video.

That’s a good idea rovereab

Such a beautiful song, this should have been a big hit, love it.

[arr&bee]

yes it was, but it should've been an a side. I like it so much better than "la la".

i agree,la la was just something that should've been stuck on an album and left there.

oh yeah,one of my favs,i don't think that any other group had as many great[b-sides]as the miracles.

[tmd]

Makes sense when you write your own stuff like Smokey, one of my all time written songs by Smokey is Still Waters, what a great song

[blkfrost]

It's a good feeling

I agree wholeheartedly with this one!
