Jermaine Jackson: I Think It's Love (Stevie Wonder co-wrote)

I like it. It's a joyous pop song and the best song Stevie gave away in the second part of the 1980s.

Frankly, I think this and "Let's get serious", are not only the two best things that Jermaine has EVER song; but they are also two of the best songs that Stevie has ever written.

Though I dont know the details, song is a co-write with Jermaine and songs producer Michael Omartian, so it was not likely to be on a Stevie album anyway.

You can tell Stevie had something to do with it though as the lines sung on the verse are sorta crammed in, a typical Stevieism.

Big, big fan of this song and your right, it is joyous! Credit must go to Omartian for that perfect key change at the end of the track. Love it!

Another obscure Stevie related track thats also "joyous" was a cut he wrote and produced for Tyler Collins in the late 80's called "two in love". Worth a hunt

I wouldn't say that, but it is good. Don't knock Jermaine's other work with Motown. Great stuff.

It's an okay song but it's kinda mediocre coming from Stevie Wonder.He's written much better songs.
