Al Green's "What A Wonderful Thing Love Is"

One of my favorite love songs, ever. I thought about the Al Green comparisons critics used when praising "Adore" and found that they were right. He may have been listening to this when he recorded "Adore," the vibe is so eerily similar.

I never felt that way about the Adore comparison though. I just think it's a beautiful song.

When Natalie Cole calls You the Baddest Singer that is a Helluva Compliment when you Consider who Her Daddy Was? Al is One of the Greatest Ever IMHO.
