Do people just not know this song or something?

Is it too smooth, too sentimental sounding?

It's great; what's your problem?

See?

Stevie's original is better - and yes, GREAT !

this record has a real nice intro

one of the best stevie wonder songs made by another artist, evah.

It should be much better known. I'd probably put it in my top 5 Aretha tracks and definitely top 10. Chuck Rainey's bass playing on that record is staggering.

Her best song. Hands down.

I'm not even a huge fan, but it's one of my favorite Aretha Franklin songs. I don't think I've ever heard Stevie Wonder's own version of it. (Anyway, I guess the 70s poll brought this on for me.)

Exquisite.

What album's it on, if it's on one?

seven years pass...

Was wondering if there was a thread for this, and apparently I started one. I heard this yesterday in Whole Foods, an atmosphere that usually destroys my appreciation of any music, and it took me to another place. I think it's a bit under-appreciated. Not obscure, but just a little neglected.

(Actually triggered by dusting my CDs off just now.)

A perfect song, performance, production.

sublime song. also i love old R&B songs with a long title AND a long parenthetical (AND the title still doesn't tell you what she's actually gonna do, you have to listen to the song to find out)

― some dude, Monday, 31 December 2012 23:17 (thirteen years ago)

yeah, a perfect song. better than the original even.
