Dan Gould Posted August 21, 2008 Report Posted August 21, 2008 I know people hate them all, but I got no problem with the Gladys Knight tune. Shows what a superior voice can do regardless of the material. Quote

JSngry Posted August 22, 2008 Report Posted August 22, 2008 I smell trouble. Is there a Bobby Bland card? Quote

Shows what a superior voice can do regardless of the material. Gladys is great, but this isn't one of her more memorable tunes. Respectfully disagree, although for entirely personal reasons. The lyrics resonate with me, and Gladys brings the right feeling to them for me. I never hear it without being moved (closer to my wife if she's anywhere near). Although, I work with a local singer named Kenny Hardin (who's Best-Kept Secret In Dallas #10,077...) who has brought me to tears more than once with his renditions of this song. Quote

I'm guessing that there is another vote for Gladys but its weird - I only see one vote, mine, yet it says that there are two votes total. Quote

Not that I ever heard it associated with Hallmark, I just dig the song. Plus, that Stevie Wonder song makes me ill and Barry Manilow, is well...., Barry Manilow.
