The singer of "I Call It Love" was a member of what funk and soul band?
I Call It Love "I Call It Love" is a song by American singer Lionel Richie. It was written by Mikkel S. Eriksen, Tor Erik Hermansen, and Taj Jackson for his studio album "Coming Home" (2006), while production was helmed by Eriksen and Hermansen under their production moniker Stargate. The song was released as the album's lead single and reached number-one on "Billboard"' s urban adult contemporary chart. Nicole Richie starred in the accompanying music video.
Farewell My Love "Farewell My Love" is a 1963 single by The Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label. It was the last single that was written and produced by Motown president Berry Gordy for well over a decade, and the last released during the period of the "Original 5" lineup (before member Elbridge "Al" Bryant was fired). It is also noted as the group's last single to miss the "Billboard" pop chart's Top 40 until 1971's "It's Summer" (and the last to not make it on any U.S. music charts for the next 23 years). Up until now the group was jokingly referred to at this time as the "Hitless Temptations" by the Motown staff, much like their "sister" group, The Supremes, were called the "no-hit Supremes". However, their next single, the Smokey Robinson-produced "The Way You Do the Things You Do", would reach the Top 20 of the U.S. pop chart, breaking the group's streak of being "hitless".
