Best R&B Song

What would you say the greatest R&B Song was? I personally would say Stevie Wonder's "I just called to say i love you"

HUH?!!?!?!?!??
I Just Called 2 Say I Love U is one of the worst trax Stevie ever released. When u r talking about R&B records, my favorites are:
"When I'm Gone" by the Jones Girls
"Do Me Baby" - Prince (or Adore)
"I Wish" - Stevie
"Billie Jean" - MJ
"I'll Be Around" - Spinners
"Heavenly" - Temptations

It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Ribbon in the Sky >>>>> I Just Called to Say I Love You

How dare you say that travesty of a pop song that beat "Purple Rain" of all songs for a frigging Oscar is the best R&B song?

Here are strong contenders, dude:
"Drown in My Own Tears" - Ray Charles
"Just to Keep U Satisfied" - Marvin Gaye (yeah I did the "u" on purpose, sorry Prince, lol)
"Lady in My Life" - MJ
"All I Do is Think of You" - The Jackson 5
"Ain't No Way" - Aretha
"My Girl" - The Tempts
"Ribbon in the Sky" - Stevie

HELL, there's 100 songs Stevie did that were 100X better than "I Just Called to Say I Hate This Song":

"I Was Made to Love Her"
"Uptight"
"Signed, Sealed, Delivered"
"If You Really Love Me"
"You Are the Sunshine of My Life" has more great things coming out of it than that song
"Joy Inside My Tears"
"They Won't Go When I Go"

...(((SCOFFS)))

Anyway, there's actually MILLIONS upon MILLIONS of R&B joints that can be known as the best R&B song just as long as it ain't no pop fluff as "I Just Called..." lol
