Paul Young No longer the histrionic pretty boy he once was (35+ years in music will do that to you), he's always been a smooth songster. Here's proof:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju_a2-Pve4g << written by Barrett/Strong with Marvin Gaye = automatically soul
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-pv24JMwRQ << dislike the rhythm in this but no denying the singing See this for a much better version of this tremendous song:
