That touches your heart and your soul in meaningful ways.....life lessons ways! Fork In the Road! CLASSIC POETRY!!!! There will NEVER be another SMOKEY(with his fine self)❤❤❤❤😊

[@ronaldbooth3783]

My one and only my idol Smoke Dog I listen to his songs 24/7 still water up on ooh baby baby - fork in the road - and Easy😂😢

[@justabaker5609]

Best concert I ever saw Cater Baron Theater Washington DC 1972. Ooh Baby Baby best slow dance song EVER!!!

[@francinehawkins6957]

NOW THAT'S REAL MUSIC YOUNGIN'S.....TAKE HEED!!!! GET A CLUE!

[@bernettabunny]

One of my favorite songs and I found out Stevie Wonder liked the song to he used to try to catch girls with it❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@RichardKoenigsberg]

His greatest song. Insufficiently recognized. Poetry set to music.

[@RichardKoenigsberg]

But better to go to the original record. More passion and intensity. This is too casual. It's not a CROONING song. In the original, Smokey is almost fanatic: begging for love. I don't like this version.

[@spiderjones6723]

Sing brother Love this early Smokey tune

[@erikscott4648]

An iconic masterpiece for the ages!

[@AnthonyBrown-to2ie]

Ladies listen to this song. Now that's what u call OLD School. Told u that they don't make em like that no more.

This my favorite song by Smokey. Wish he would perform it more often in his concerts. Precious memories.

[@sheilapalmer224]

You are so sosososo underrated

[@lindalewis7098]

So absolutely amazing. Thank you Smokey, for so many wonderful songs and memories. ❤ 🙏

[@edwarddiaz9724]

berry gordy said after hearing these lyrics he realized smokey was a songwriting genius.

[@BillBird2111]

Yes! He touches on this very thought in Hitsville: The Making of Motown. He knew that Smokey had surpassed him as a songwriter when he heard this. That he had gone in a direction he never even once considered going. Berry may have been the force behind Motown, but Smokey was just as instrumental in the company's amazing sucesss.

[@sidneyhunt9976]

Four decades I'm listening too

[@garymayfield5995]

I've give him the song writing but not the singing

[@jeffhutch580]

​@@BillBird2111 Berry was still a prolific SONGWRITER based on the hits he wrote for his sparring partner Jackie Wilson and might I add Smokey Robinson's favorite and greatest singer to date. Berry actually told Smokey the fundamentals about writing a song. It's like a story. You have a beginning middle and an end. So ends the lesson.

[@Nomad-vv1gk]

One of the greatest of motown, Smokey Robinson is awesome 👌 👏 👍

The younger generation need to indulge themselves in this old school music because it got it point across respectfully without all the sucking, eating, and licking you hear today.

11/27/2018. Back door Regal Theater Chicago , year. 1961 Smokey gave me his autograph and kiss my cheek. I was hooked! Now I'm 68yrs and still hooked! PS . Married my high school sweet heart. Steve sang Ooh baby baby ! Thanks for everything Smokey 😎

Nice to hear/see this live

[@deborahlsmith4315]

I actually met this musical genius. At a Baltimore City Fair. He asked if anybody could sing one of his songs. I raised my hand. My best friend & daughter's father, DJ Curtis Anderson told me to sing. Cause he knew I could sing15-20 of Smokey's songs.

[@maryweatherton6061]

They did that

[@debiaconelli299]

[@ujimajame4601]

This looks like an outtake from "Motown 25." Though I have nothing against Linda Rondstat, i did not look at Motown 25 to see non-Motown artists perform songs made by artists that were still around to do their own tunes!

[@janicejackson9228]

Exactly ❤

[@SunnyIlha]

6:25. 6:29. Wow Linda really looked at Smokey here. She's the only one yet who's ever really renditioned this song with unusual greatness. Her own voice, her own signature distinct style.

[@sheilapalmer9539]

You are a legend

[@ujimajame4601]

Diana Ross & The Supremes and The Temptations did a great job with "I'll Try Something New" as well. It was the follow-up to "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me."

[@charityshoptreasures2569]

🤩

[@marciapeak893]

I'll try something new was the first song that actually made me scream as a teenager. lol I was shocked when that happened. I must truthfully say that in this video I would prefer to hear only Smokey, not a duet with someone who did a cover of his song.

[@susankennedy5739]

Did Smokey and Linda have a thing? They are sure tight here!
