To write a Motown song requires dealing with hurt, pain, and love.
Listen to them and realize the majority of them deals with losing that love of your life.

Ain't too proud to beg, she's about to hit the door.
Back in my arms again, played the game to find out his return was the best thing.

The Supremes reign whenever singing HDH songs that mirrored hurt of losing more.

Stop in the name of love, listen to the lyrics and you can craft a Motown song.
One of the best slow dance tunes is by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles.

Ooo, Baby, Baby hit straight to the hurt with the first line "I did you wrong"-still folks slow dance to the tune.

The Four Tops seems able to avoid more hurt than others by stating how they need her loving.

Strange but true, except "Ask the lonely, one great song for hurt lovers.
Then the Temps turn to the truth I could never love another after loving you.

The love duets of Marvin and Tammi journey only a few times that way.

But when you hear If this world was mine sung. You realize why a true love remains so strong.

So it's not hard to write a Motown song.
Unless you simply want to be alone.
