5 - I'd have trouble picking a top 5 from one Motown artist let alone their entire roster- but here goes
1 - I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Marvin Gaye 2 - Just My Imagination - Temptations 3 - Needle In A Haystack - Velvelettes 4 - This Old Heart Of Mine - The Isley Brothers 5 - For Once In My Life - Stevie Wonder This took some real soul searching and had to leave out Papa Was A Rolling Stone, Living For The City, Third Finger Left Hand, Reach Out (I'll Be There), I'll Be There (J5), My Girl, You Keep Me Hanging On (and many others)
