the way the whole church stood up when that first note came out STILL sends chills down my spine.

Lord have mercy!!! That Smokey Robinson is so beautiful in side and out. He's just a sweet peaceful, beautiful spirited, guy. I love his humble spirit.

Of all the people Smoky Robinson was the the most genuine voice out their. Straight from the heart. No performance.

Well done Aretha Franklin deserved all the love.

Love to hear Smokey sing this song; always brings tears to my eyes!!. I watched.her.funeral live & my heart broke for Smokey when I saw that he struggled thru singing this song!! This reminds me, personally, of.my late.daughter ( Farrah-my best friend), my big sis ( Rita) & my Dad ( the late.Joseph Smith); all of you Saints of God continue to RIHP!!✝ 🙏

Smokey's tribute was the most heart touching of everything that has been said and done today. It brought tears to my eyes. You can feel when people lose a good friend. That tribute was authentic. God bless you Mr. Robinson. You made us realize just how much you are going to miss her. This tribute showed that you and she were really good friends. May God wrap His arms of affection around you as he mends your broken heart. Thank you. #RestInPeaceQueenOfSoul
