I think - today, at least - this is my favorite of their ballads. I love the arrangement. There's something very old fashioned about it. Sad and beautiful.

biggrin My favorite, too! I also like that T.O.N.T.O. Moog feel - Stevie Wonder synth collaborators Cecil and Margouleff were on hand to provide the sounds for this... they did the same on "Sensuality", (from "The Heat Is On)"...

I've gotta look closer at my liner notes. They did stuff with the synths that sounded like a Theremin, but I presume they didn't actually use one?

No, but Bob Moog always said that the Theremin directly influenced his development of the first Moog synthesizers, so that sound is in there...
