Smokey Robinson - Baby Come Close

[@sublime12201]

This is why we all loved black culture.... 2024 is a different world

[@twilightdream1000]

This song takes my breath away 🥰🥰🥰

[@just_lvp]

Spring 2023 and am still saddened that these classic reruns aren't being shared with a world in need of pure soul.

[@marcusrobinson9291]

MADE ME STOP AND CRY REMEMBERING WHEN I WAS A KID MY MOM DAD AND 2 BROTHERS THAT HAVE PASSED AWAY THE BEST TIMES AND BEST MUSIC

[@helencard934]

It's 2 years down the road and Smokey still makes my heart melt. I just love his voice. He is the best crooner I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. You go boy!!!!

I met plenty of young ladies while playing this ballet it's funny how so many people said. I favoured. Smokey. Eyes complexion and afro if I only had the pipes. God bless you. Smokey

[@barbarajohnson3876]

[@helencard934]

Me too - 73 and can't get enough of this man's voice. He was also so very fine!!!

[@catboyzee]

This track was, and still is, the shizzznittt. Happy 81st born day(Feb 19, 2021) to Motown legend William 'Smokey' Robinson. #respect

[@leezeno6874]

The ONE, THE ONLY, What a MIRACLE! I'm an Essar Lover 4ever. I heard Ooo Baby Baby @ 11 yrs old and fell in love with that voice and it's been a 57 yr. affair. I love a lot of great singers from all genres. But, to me Smokey and that melodious storytelling voice is a GENRES in itself. BLee

[@patrickmonroe5147]

I agree momma

[@floydmasonii5668]

THE SHAKESPEARE OF A-L-L L-O-V-E LYRICS 💜💜💜

[@marlonbryant3807]

Simply the best at that genre of music the best ever

[@michellemanning7229]

Smokey!❤

[@Regreviews]

And I thought the first performance of this was great...this is phenomenal

[@tommiemccall1384]

Smokey is The " Baddest " singer " Alive " No one like him NO ONE!!!

[@jeromewomack2496]

In my humble opinion, this is Smokey's sexiest song!

[@garlandhankins8214]

Heavenly music straight from the universe

[@themajicman745]

This song brought my daughter into this world with some help from me. Smokey supplied the wax and I supplied the pipe.

[@notmebutyou8350]

🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@kych2008]

Congrats

[@ifinallyfoundthebeef]

Hmmmmm😅😅😅

[@Patsytaylor-i9v]

He's the best love making out all singers to me I ment him when I was 16 on Clifton street at the club call the black nugget and he has the same voice

[@michaelmcpherson4224]

That is jus absolutely beautiful

[@sheliajohnson4585]

Lord can I just go to one of my baby’s concert. My one and only favorite singer, period ♥️. Just one slow dance

[@careysmith8404]

This song reminds me of my first love.

[@troytyler8613]

So sad by the time i found this song. The girl this song expressed my feelings perfectly for. She was gone because we were having a baby at 17 years old each. Strange all these years later and no one has came close to her

[@donhylorjr.6145]

Wowww.... beautiful version of what was already a masterpiece

[@traceygroomes9296]

Smokey live on Soul Train? Live vocals? Live instruments? Don’t get no better than this! Can a falsetto get any sweeter? This soul music haunts your spirit wanting to be the one someone yearns for like this? Smokey. A national treasure. Whew. Got me feeling some type of way y’all!

[@christinagraham2915]

He actually sung this twice live on here

[@bobbie143bc]

When Soul Train started in the 70s most of the guest sang live. 😊

[@schoolgurl2hot]

One of my favorites.

[@terryarnold9154]

Thanks for posting this, wonderful to see and hear Smokey perform this beautiful ballad. Was lucky to see him live in the UK in the early 80's and this was always one of the highlights of the show. He really is a wonderful songwriter and his solo work is sometimes overlooked, but this from "Pure Smokey" and of course "Quiet Storm" were wonderful albums and strangely under appreciated. Thanks again .

[@RamardoTHunt]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@floydmasonii5668]

WHO Could Put Lyrics So S-W-E-E-T, Like the Poet of Poetry Smokey 👈🏿💜💜💜

[@beverlydavis4435]

[@tommiemccall1384]

No one Alive like Smokey!!!!!

[@caesard.8711]

Real talent, I can remember being a child watching Soul Train. It was different world back then. Watching this makes me really appreciate those times.
