I'm 62 and still in the 1970s in a cool way. I ain't never leaving. to much good music and memories. I saw the whole 1970s from start to finish. If you lived them years you know what I'm talking bout

I suddenly had this song in my head and had to find it. I'm so glad I finally did find it. I remember this song from playing my 45's as a little boy when I first arrived in America from Argentina at six years old. My father's new wife was American and she handed me a huge box of 45's and 78's and said 'This is the best way for you to learn about America. Through our music.' She was so right! This was one of my favourites. I didn't even realise such a classic group was singing the song. I'd never heard of the Miracles at that point. Or even Smoky Robinson or this Griffin fellow for that matter. Listening to this song has brought back a great many memories. Thank you for making it available to listen to. From the bottom of my heart.
