Awesome to see this Smokey sing this Awesome song LIVE with The Miracles behind him! I saw him sing LIVE at Saratoga Springs Jazz Festival in 90's & a woman passed out in middle of his song, literally fainted & Smokey stopped singing & came to edge of stage & in sweetest voice asked "is ahe ok?" & wouldnt continue singing until he knew she was ok. We all lost it we were so blown away!❤❤❤😂💖
