    The Emotions are for real! They're from Chicago and grew up at the same time as Chaka Khan and Minnie Riperton. Can you imagine trying to win a talent contest when those three are entered at the same time!?! My favorite song from The Emotions is "Blessed". But really, anything from the Rejoice album.

      @@mic1240, that's right. "Flowers" is the first Emotions song I remember hearing on the radio. Although, Unsung has an episode on The Emotions that reference their earlier recordings. They didn't get national recognition until they started collaborating with Earth Wind & Fire.

    Nice! "Best of My Love" was a number one hit in the US for The Emotions back in 1977. It was composed and produced by Maurice White and Al McKay of Earth, Wind & Fire, which accounts for the funky bass and killer horn lines. I was ten and just beginning to discover music beyond the music of my parents when this song was all over the radio. Its sound reminds me of The Pointer Sisters. The Eagles also dropped a number one hit in the US titled "Best of My Love" but that song is a ballad and that year was 1975.

    ***THE EMOTIONS TRIVIA TIME!!!*** ....you want the "Best"!? ..doo-doo-doo...OWW! (3:52)
    -...The Emotions are 3 Sisters who had a minor (underground) Disco & R&B hit with the 1976 tune, "I Don't Want To Lose Your Love"; their next Album "Rejoice" was produced by Earth Wind & Fire member & Producer Maurice White, who loved their 'Black Girl next Door' images.....
    - The tune is VERY important to R&B and Black culture; It remains one of the most played 'Black barbecue cookout' Songs, and helped define 70's Black Culture....It was featured on an Episode of "Good Times" ('Thelma' was cleaning the Apt., dancing to the tune); CBS paid a LOT of money to have the tune featured, it was THAT huge!
    - the tune also charted VERY good; #1 Pop for 5 weeks & #1 R&B (for 4)....It's one of THE most successful crossover tunes of ALLTIME, and helped bridges the gap of Gospel & Disco....
    - and, it ALSO helped an unknown Singer named.... ***CHERYL LYNN*** , who copied off the tune, and gave us "Got To Be Real", there would be NO Cheryl, if "Best Of My Love" never happened...PERIOD.... It also won a Grammy for best R&B Song of 1977 (Duo or Group).....
    ...MAN, Empress is gonna KILL me, pickin' these tunes with a TON O' trivia! ...ha-HAAA!!

      Well she did get into legal trouble. Songwriter Maurice White sued Mariah Carey and C+C Music Factory for plagiarizing this song for Mariah's 1991 #1 hit "Emotions" (C+C produced the song for Mariah). Said White, "Sampling is one thing, but she took the whole song." The lawsuit was settled out of court. She’s settled a few law suits for plagiarism and copyright infringement. Now she’s being sued for All I Want For Christmas…

      @@jobuck879 And those were C+C Music Factory productions but ultimately the responsibility comes down to the singer to make sure everything is cleared through. The All I Want For Christmas claim is bogus. The song was released over 25 years ago and all of a sudden she's being sued over it because the title of the song is the exact same as the guy that's suing? That's absolutely ludicrous. How many songs have the same title? That case will be thrown out of court.

      @@ChrisC709 She did use the WHOLE song in Emotions hence the settlement. There’s other songs she settles too it’s not just one or two. She’s a fraud. The woman didn’t even write her own songs by herself, like she claims. She was sued for that too and had to settle because she _knew_ she had help. And no she’s not the only person who could have sung that song there’s other artist that could have did the song and did it justice easily. And now there’s artist that covered it and sang it well even with/without the whistle register.
