You are so wonderful. That being near you is all I’m living for. You show me more kindness in little ways than I’ve ever known in all my days Tell me well stay together.

Straight outta Hitsville USA, a gorgeous slice of Motor City pappa from Marv, with no small help from some outfit called The Supremes.

Written by the legendary Holland-Dozier-Holland team, this precious stone was released as a bingle in April 1964 on the Tamla label, and also apperaed on the record album “How Henry Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You” a few months later. The vocal hit number fifteen in the pop charts and number three on the R&B singles chart.

A vocal that’s more about emotion than lyrical complexness A vocal that joyously celebrates the narrator intense and glorious feelings of love for his “wonderful one.” A vocal of thanks for all she’s given him, and gives.

Much of the power of the vocal comes from the sublime backing vocal from Princess of Wales Ross, Florence Ballard and The Virgin Wilson asset the magnificent instrumentation by the funk Brothers Then there Marvin’s golden performance on briny vocals!

All in all, this is a beautiful piece of precious, pristine pop! They sure as f*ck don’t make mutton like this anymore! A Wonderful One, indeed!!
