Wow SnOOz that is something that would take a year to answer. I love Motown , In fact it would be much easier to make a list of what I do not like . I have over 3000 CD on my second drive and I DLoaded most of them a large portion of them from the 60/70s

I second that emotion , OOOhhh, and stairway to heaven...

That was my favorite music in the 60s!! I loved it all. Can't pick just one and too many to name. I could copy them from somewhere but I'm sure you know the names. I used to pretend to be the singers, background ones too and I'd do all the dance steps. It is still one of my loves:-)

Jackie Wilson ~ Higher and Higher!!!

I don't know if this counts as Motown, but Otis Redding's "Dock of the Bay" is one of the best songs of all time.

Stop, Mr. Postman.

I think the first Motown song I ever heard was "Shop Around" by the Miracles in early 1961. That may be the first single that was released under that label. What's So Good about Goodbye- the Miracles. I used to really like "I'll be Doggone" by Marvin Gaye but now I can't get past the chauvinism in the lyrics, e.g. "Every woman should be what her man wants her to be". However, his "Too Busy Thinking About My Baby" is still one of my favorite M'town tunes. Standing in the Shadows of Love- the Four Tops Sugar Pie Honeybunch- " Just Ask the Lonely- " Dancing in the Streets- Martha and the Vandellas. I also like the video cover by Mick Jagger and David Bowie. Playboy- the Marvelettes You Can't Hurry Love- the Supremes Stop in the Name of Love- " Just My Imagination- the Temptations My Girl- " What becomes of the Brokenhearted- David Ruffin
