"SINCE YOU WON MY HEART"

Smokey Robinson's music has been more than music, more than sound and lyrics; it has been food for my soul and water for my loins, since the 1950s. Not just Smokey and the Miracles, but musicians of that era and of that genre, from Motown in Detroit , from Stax in Memphis, from Chicago, LA, and Philadelphia as well. They renewed us, rocked us, soothed us, assured us, amused us, inspired us, then, and now. When any music embeds one's person and one's personality like this, one becomes that music. So we who love them and have been viscerally impacted by them and by it become miraculous , tempting , delphonic, topological, supreme , vandellan, wonderful, impressive, stone family! https://youtu.be/pQcNwTm4CbQ
