Experimenting with some styles to start pushing out high quality audio videos of some of my favorite soul tracks.  I love Stax, Mowtown, and Philly as much as rock n roll and since I've really only done one track way back (a concept vid for Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes "I Miss You" https://youtu.be/e_n6quVYhKk ) I really hope to start representing with this style more and more.

"Just A Little Misunderstanding" was released in 1966 on The Contours album for Gordy Records. I've always loved the track, hope you do too!

How amazing is it that Stevie Wonder is credited as one of the writers of this song?  What was he, 11 or 12?! Wow!

[Lyrics]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
It's a cold man to hurt his woman
And watch her walk away crying
When all along, he knows he's wrong
Being so hard on a woman who's trying
I was so unkind to hurt you so
Going out of my mind
I just gotta let you know that
Baby, I just can't let you go
I realize I hurt you so
Our love, surely can we mend it
It's just a little misunderstanding
I remember you said
You would always care
Until death should we do part
Baby, surely must be our destiny
To die the death of a broken heart
So before I go, a wandering rover
Let's get together
Talk this thing over now
Baby, I just can't let you go
I realize I hurt you so
Our love, surely can we mend it
It's just a little misunderstanding
That's all it is
If our love is so wrong?
It just seems wrong
That our love could never be
You could be anywhere
Baby, I wouldn't care
If I thought that you're leaving me
All the chains in the world
(Couldn't hold me, couldn't hold me)
Like the? our your love
(Controls me, controls me)
Baby, I just can't let you go
I realize I hurt you so
Our love, surely can we mend it
It's just a little misunderstanding
That's all it is
Baby, I just can't let you go (oh, yeah)
I realize I hurt you so (ooh, yeah)
Our love, surely can we mend it
(Surely we can we mend it)
It's just a little misunderstanding
Baby (baby)
I just can't let you go
