Ross classics

[daviddh]

Just thinking, with all the hits Diana has had over the years , what songs have slipped under the radar that you think are worthy and as good as the bigger hits.
Your love .
If you're not gonna love me right.
If the world just danced
Love is all that matters.
Not over you yet remix

her version of Little Girl Blue from the Blue sessions/TMITM album is frankly one of the most masterful recordings she's ever done. that includes her Supremes work. it's just flawless. of course it wouldn't have been a single but it's still a masterpiece

some of the singles that should have done much better:
Top of the World
You got it
The Boss - only going #19?!?! but of course it really has maintained it's legacy
Surrender
Bottom Line - Workin Overtime

and then there are lots of tracks that were gems on the albums and oddly totally overlooked for a single
You Do it - from Ross 83
You Were The One - from Ross 78
Dark side of the World - from DR 70
All of my Life - from TMITM
Baby it's me - from BIM
Anywhere you run to - Silk Electric
Who - SE
Touch by Touch - Swept Away

Shoulda, coulda, wouldas!

Shoulda been bigger:
Remember Me
I'm Still Waiting
I Thought It Took a Little Time
The Boss
Missing You
Chain Reaction
Not Over You Yet
If the World Just Danced

Coulda, woulda been worthy singles:
Dark Side of the World
I Won't Last a Day Without You [if released before the Carpenters]
After You
No One Gets the Prize
You Do It
Change of Heart
Waiting in the Wings

" You Were The One"
I have always said what was Motown thinking.
That song has hit all over it.

Not Over You Yet should have been to Diana what Believe was to Cher.
