This CD is part of a of Motown Valentine's Day series of "Love Songs." As a substitute for a dozen roses, are a dozen love songs. Avid fans will enjoy the rare front and back cover photographs. Nearly one third of all The Supremes top forty hits included the word love, but here the emphasis is on album tracks and B sides. Of the former, the best selection is The Music That Makes Me Dance, from the yet to be released on CD The Supremes Sing And Perform Funny Girl. Upon hearing this track wonders,why? The Supremes were no strangers to the Bob Merrill & Jule Styne songbook having performed I Am Woman and People from the early days of their careers.Other compilations over the years have included I'm The Greatest Star, If A Girl Isn't Pretty, an alternate version of People with leads by Florence Ballard and Diana and I Am Women in the At The Copa album. Mary Wilson fans will enjoy her sexy lead vocals on Can't Take My Eyes Of You. Their interpertation of Rodgers & Hart's Lover is fresh and lively. From the More Hits By The Supremes album are Mary Wells covers,the joyous Honey Boy and Whisper You Love Me Boy, the popular B side of Back In My Arms Again, the classic Stop! In The Name of Love and B side I'm In Love Again. In addition to the title cut and single from their I Hear A Symphony album the collection includes Everything Is Good About You which Diana sings with conviction. It is fitting the collection concludes with the swan song Someday We'll Be Together.

While most Michael fans like his more grown up voice, I prefer his younger voice. I bought this album back in 2002 not knowing any song on it. I just wanted to take a chance and I fell in love. His voice is just as powerful like his current and Michael just sings to you from his heart. My favorite song off the album is "Wings Of My Love" because I love the music in the back ground and Michael sings it to make you feel like he is takeing you high on the wings of his love. Every Mike fan must own his albums from his J5 and Motown solo days before they can own his stuff from the 80s. Michael will forever have me stuck on this album.

There was one particular song that I heard and could not find it anywhere. "We're Almost There" and once I heard the rest of the songs, I can't stop playing this CD. It brought back a lot of great memories growing up listening to Michael Jackson.

This is a great CD! MJ's voice as a child and throughout his life was simply mesmerizing and captivating. This is old school, young, genius Michael Jackson. He was truly a gifted prodigy who became a legend. Truly enjoyable CD.
