Her sweet singing voice reflects a fusion of sophistication and gentleness.
A smooth R&B piece that harmonizes sweet melodies with soulful vocals, establishing a mature style that emerged after Motown.
Smokey Robinson's vocals are smooth, and he delivers soft emotions over a light rhythm. The melody is understated and elegant, and the arrangement is urban and sophisticated. The balance between sweetness and melancholy is exquisite, revealing a new side to the song with every listen. The production is also meticulous, and the clarity of the sound is striking. The calm groove, which exudes a sense of R&B maturity, flows comfortably.
