  As much as I love Aretha's, Stevie's version is my favorite. It's in my top 20 for sure. That's one of his all-time best vocal performances... can't believe it stayed buried for years.  I heard it a few months ago and I have to agree. Stevie's version rules. | |

All I Do What do you think of Tammi Terrell's version? I actually prefer her (unreleased) 1966 version to his, and I like his a lot.  | |

Don't Make Me Wait Too Long He wrote it, but I don't think he recorded a version. If so, I'd love to hear it. Along those lines, I much prefer "You Are My Heaven."

I know her version wasn't about being funky.
It's lovely but Stevie's version does something to me. | |

 Love, love, LOVE that song! 
Anyone who could leave Steve after hearing that is crazy! Man, I just wish the song didn't fade out so soon because you can tell they were preparing for some serious funk right there. | |

He wrote it, but I don't think he recorded a version. If so, I'd love to hear it. Along those lines, I much prefer "You Are My Heaven." he didn't record a released version but he wrote them. Nither did he wrecord It's A Shame... "Heaven" is beautiful, but it makes me so sad. | |

Don't believe it. They were both mentioned. Some classics that haven't been mentioned yet: Fingertips Nothing's Too Good for My Baby With a Child's Heart Blowin' in the Wind A Place in the Sun Hey Love I'm Wondering Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day You Met Your Match I Don't Know Why (I Love You) Yester-Me, Yester-You, Yester-Day Heaven Help Us All Happier Than the Morning Sun Seems So Long Joy Inside My Tears Outside My Window Black Orchid I Ain't Gonna Stand for It "Whitney was purely and simply one of a kind." ~ Clive Davis | |
