It’s since been one of the tracks used in countless TV shows and films to stand in for the 1960s as a decade, ensuring that this Motown song will continue to resonate for generations to come. This massive hit for The Four Tops wasn’t just a No. – Sam Armstrongĥ1: I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch) (The Four Tops) While the sentiment was downcast, it resonated with listeners at the time (it nearly reached the top of the Billboard charts) and today (the album from which it was taken, What’s Going On was named the #1 record in the 2020 Rolling Stone list of the best albums of all-time).

The movie for which it was written is largely forgotten today, but the song will be remembered forever. It’s a perfect marriage of two distinct and talented voices. One of the greatest duets ever, this Lionel Richie-penned tune topped the Billboard charts for nine weeks. – Sam Armstrongĥ5: Endless Love (Lionel Richie & Diana Ross) If you’re looking for a perfect example of “The Motown Sound,” you’d be hard-pressed to find a better one than 1963’s “Heatwave.” With doo-wop vocals, a hefty backbeat, and plenty of horns, this is the classic sound of the label. 56: Heatwave (Martha Reeves & The Vandellas)
