 Best From Artist 53 - Ashford & Simpson I guess this topic has had a good rest and now it's time to resume it, esp. for one requester  I'll pick one ballad and one uptempo. My uptempo is "It Seems To Hang On." I remember doing "the rock" to that song all night long. My ballad is "Send It." They sound so magical doing that song. Oh, it's been so long I hope I've the count for the artist correct :roll:

| Ashford & Simpson had better luck writing songs for other artists on the Motown Label... My choices are: Solid Found A Cure It Seems To Hang On :D |

| 'Found A Cure' is completely lost on me, but seems to do it for many. 'Don't Cost You Nothing' funks hard! 'It Seems To Hang On' for sweetness! 'Bourgie, Bourgie' is not a long-time fave at all, but I find it pretty atmospheric.

| Bourgie, Bourgie - Classic instrumental track It Seems to Hang On - This song just makes you hot Found a Cure - I hear the people screaming :D . Joyous club music: "Oooh, love'll fix it!" Don't Cost You Nothin' - Exactly! Gimme Something Real - Thank you, Art. I still have the lp. :) Honorable Mentions: Get Out Your Handkerchiefs Love Don't Always Make It Right ...and Valerie doing "Can't It Wait Until Tomorrow" her way! |

| Surprisingly nobody's mentioned my fave "Nobody Knows"!!! Don't "nobody" know it???? :P "Nobody knows the answer, to where all your little secrets lie.. Nobody knows the answer.....I ain't got no magic mirror"!!!! Loved that one!!! Bobby V. worked this at Troc!!!! :D PLUS, "Found A Cure". Terrific mid-tempo, joyous disco!!! Their best stuff, howeve IMHO, were the classic duets they composed for Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell. "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" "You're All I Need To Get By" "Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing" "If I Could Build My Whole World Around You" "Your Precious Love" "If This World Were Mine" & others. CLASSIC LOVE SONGS!!!!

| Hi Paul :P You're not gonna believe this - I was at a dance studio monday evening and the dj was playing "It Seems To Hang On" (btw a favorite) and I said to myself that they haven't played this song in a loooooooong time. AND I thought about your best artists thread - my inner suggestions were saying that Ashford & Simpson should be your next pick and LOW and BEHOLD there they were at #53 :o :D !!!!!!!!!!!!! It's amazing how this came up.....maybe I have sixth sense" :lol: :lol: ! another fave is "Bourgie Bourgie" :P I can't stand :x "Solid" and "Found A Cure". I never understood the hoopla over these two songs :-? *DISCO DELIGHT* |
