I misread the title of another forum topic and thought it was asking for people's favourite Tamla Motown artists/albums/songs. It wasn't - so I thought I'd ask instead.

Meatloaf released a song on the Mowtown label called "Who's the Leader".

Craig Charles played it once on his 6 Music Funk and Soul show.

Seems untraceable though.

Edwin Starr covered it. I heard that they used the same backing track from the Meatloaf version and that if you listen carefully you can here his vocals in the background of Starr's version.

I can't pick just one song! Mrs NC has already suggested a few that I'm saying yes to as well.

Also:

You Can't Hurry Love - The Temptations

Tracks of My Tears - Smokey Robinson & The Miracles

What Becomes of the Brokenhearted - Jimmy Ruffin

My Guy - Mary Wells

+ lots more

And, possibly controversial but -

End of the Road - Boyz II Men

I love all the Motown music . Four tops, Edwin Star, temptation, Supremes, Marvin Gaye. I have seen most of them live back in the 70s . Feel old now, but who cares great music

Incidentally, I just checked and the Meatloaf version has been uploaded to YouTube a few times so you shouldn't have any trouble finding it there.
