Diana Ross & The Supremes - Love Child
More Motown, sweet, soulful, danceable… somehow Diana and her cohorts can pull it off even when singing about such a delicate and, presumably at the time, taboo subject. Love Child documents life in a single-parent family, something which has become pretty commonplace these days. Now, I could dive into a long discussion of whether music effects social change, or merely reflects it… but I won’t. Just enjoy the song.
