Yeah, a bit early, but i have a tradeshow to attend tomorrow.

How about by genre, your favorite Motown tune?

For me this . . .

And this cover of that song is one of the greatest performances i can think of. Ever. It gives me goosebumps. If you dont like this, you have no soul. :embarrassed:

I expected this thread to be one of the biggest favorite song by threads. There are so many great Motown songs that this thread could keep on going.
 
Wow... hard to narrow it down to only one.... Chad has some good choices.....


Stevie Wonder is probably half of my top 20 Motown songs though....
