A guilty pleasure and a very hidden personal favourite Smokey track...

Smokey Robinson has a great voice, tho it has taken me years to recognise it- it's so understated but is all the more emotive as a result.

One of our truly greatest living songwriters (ask any composer).
I remember when I interviewed him and told him that he was genuinely touched and humble.
Very simple but brilliant lyrics with fabulous melodies.
