Love Nancy Wilson. Very classy lady. I am sad she is gone. There is one song I am searching for. I'm not good with lyrics, but I think some of the lyrics are, "If you know where you wanna go, and if you want me to go to, I'd be there if you want me to. I'll be good as I can be..." I'm pretty sure I just butchered a classical song by Nancy Wilson, but if someone can point me in the right direction that would be great. Can someone help me to find this song? Thank you.

Both are great jazz singers. In fact my music teacher had a life sized poster signed by Nancy Wilson. None of my classmates knew of Nancy Wilson. They all were saying that the lady in the poster must be friends or a relative of the teacher. LOL. But I knew about Nancy Wilson and the teacher was pleasantly surprised.😎

You don't have to be talented anymore to put together bits and pieces of songs, and you can rely on digital editing and drum machines. Wow, that says it all, doesn't it? Consequently, there will be no more Nancy Wilsons, Aretha Franklins, Judy Garlands, Frank Sinatras, Tony Bennetts, Ella Fitzgeralds, Sarah Vaughans, Billie Hollidays, and all the others. It seems that only in live church music and live classical music does true talent live on in this day and age.
