Just love this song. It brings back so many wonderful memories of yesterday when slow dancing was the thing at Detroit's Graystone Ballroom and the twenty Grand..SMOKEY
This man performing this Classic song,I mean he stirs the entire soul,this performance right here yeah! Cold 🚿 shower coming soon, I mean he should have gotten a standing ovation for this one here,he definitely use every vocal he's got 👏👏👏👏👏👏😍🚿🎶🎵💃💯
I am 18 years of age and I wish I had a singing voice like this. Smokey Robinson is in my opinion the greatest singer and song writer to have lived and I am blessed to have been brought up with his music
Listen to "More Love." That song was written in tribute to Claudette after the couple suffered yet another miscarriage. I was 12 when I bought that record, and have played it a million times since. Brilliant, iconic performance that started me listening to Smokey and the Miracles. 54 years later...
My God folks relax and listen to Smokey and that sax player and the whole arrangement of this timeless classic. This is pure Detroit soul with a touch of tenderness.
No matter who does this song, after this or before, THIS is Smokie's amazing voice and talent...."Ooo wee ooo, baby baby." I've always love this forever...
I cried when I saw him in person (Circle Star Theater 1989 San Carlos,CA) and he sang this song. His voice was crystal clear, a beautiful instrument then and now. Nobody can sing and make me feel like Smokey can.
John Lennon called him Motown"s Genius in 1963. The man can still sing his songs today.Plus all the songs he wrote for the rest of the Motown team. He is truly a miracle, with a hell of a lot of discipline and hard work.
A master singer’s crooning the only way he can.... that unmistakable voice ... which just sets all who love this song into a mood filled with romance and sentimentality... ooooh oooooh baby... thank you Smokey so much for such a timeless song.
IF YOU COULD HAVE SEEN THE MIRACLES' YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN TRUELY BLESSED. WHEN THEY WOULD COME ON STAGE TO SING Ooo-Baby Baby, IT WAS EXHILARATING. But here he was going through a bad time. But thanks be to GOD, Jesus sent Mr. Leon Isaac Kennedy, to help Smokey come back.
I have been loving all of Smokeys songs and talents since 1965 ooh baby baby is my theme song and to this day I listen to it religiously of course I love every song of Smoke Dog. Got to meet him once at a concert in the park in Pasadena I was sitting next to Roland Bynum who was impressed by me singing every song Smokey sang. He asked me did I want to meet Smokey of course I did so after the show he took me to Smokeys trailer I was speechless Smokey could not open my mouth Smokey snapped me out of the fog I was in I think I said something stupid but I got a picture with my idol I think of that day all the time Thanks Smokey for making my life you are the greatest poet in the world
Saw Smokey live 2 years ago and had tickets to see him in Tulsa this year but got cancelled because of the virus. He just gets better and hope to see him again soon. No words to describe the genius and talent of this man and his voice.
no Patrick Gallimore sam cooke is the world best male vocalist this is who smokey robbinson marvin gaye and otti redding model themeselves after, check sam cooke out before you make that statement
Patrick Gallimore Smokey does not model himself after Sam Cooke. Sam came before Smokey but just like there's no one like Sam; there's no one like Smokey. Smokey's inspiration was Barrett Strong and Billy Ward; not Sam Cooke.
Patrick Gallimore I think that woman is better than him and women in general

Donna I'm sure he thinks he must be a boxer lol and what is it ! people keep making ludicrous statements like he or she is the best ever. Oh well if you cant beat them I'll join them Lol ! So my nomination for the best in class must surely go the one the only the magnificent the inimitable MR LEROY HUTSON ! Clap clap clap clap clap etc !
I just saw smoke in Atlantic City about 5 or 6 months ago the man is almost 80 years old and still singing with great passion and energy. I'm truly his number one fan
I have not seen anyone yet in this generation that can perform a song like Ooh Baby Baby. The music I hear today is like "Enough is Enough, Cut the D...radio off.
This is how we just saw him on the ship- what a concert. He is so beautiful. His songs are eternal. Loved him in 1968 in high school. It was so wonderful to see him in person and he still hits those notes!
Smokey was always a sexy man ...Hes an excellent singer and his songs came from his heart and soul...I agree this audience should have given him a standing ovation...Damm this man is good as ever and still moves me...
debra cortright Agreed. When no one in the audience stood, I knew they couldn’t and didn’t appreciate what they had just witnessed. Pity. But so glad it was filmed so WE could have the chance to apply him!
THIS BEST SINGER OUT THERE, PERIOD! SOUNDS GREAT LIVE AS WELL IN A STUDIO. VERY FEW,VERY FEW SINGERS CAN DO THAT. SMOKEY IS A NATURAL GIFTED SINGER / SONG WRITER.
I wish someone would create a time machine so I could give Mozart and Beethoven and all the greats a set of headphones and see their reaction to this. I would put it up with any of them. A master at work.
Lord have Mercy Smokey can sang your Panny Off. Every time he came to the Apollo Theater in the 60s I was front row center🔥🔥💯❤️❤️❤️😅 Happy Birthday Smokey🙏🏽🙏🏽
Way back when Smokey & Linda Ronstadt were in Atlantic City I was driving a Limo for the Trump Group & Linda autographed a album with this beautiful song. I have the signed album in glass on my office wall. What a treat to meet both of them.
I WAS IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN IN THE VERY BEGINNING OF HIS CAREER SHE NOT A BAD GIRL? AND EVER SINCE THEN HE OWNED ME! I TOTALLY MERIZED BY HIM BESIDE MILLIONS OF US! HIM MARVIN WERE FAVORITE SINGERS OF ALL TIMES NO ONE COME BEFORE THEM TWO IN THIS LIFE OR IF THIER NEXT ONE! NUMBER ONE FAN FOR YEARS HE TAKES MY BREATHE AWAY!
These voices are one of a kind and can never be replaced Smokey, Luther, Teddy,Marvin,Barry,
I'm 60 years old. Damn he still has that Beautiful. Voice. Good memories.
To all the Motown classic sixties song arrangers fans salute you.
Smokey still has a fantastic voice today at 83. This is just one his great performances through the years.
Smokey sings this song with such soul
This man doesn't age. Nor does his music.
Amen or should I say I second that emotion.. lol
I AGREE!!!!!!! LOL
I so agree with you, I just saw him last night 7/27/22 and he looks amazing! He's 82!

I cannot stop listening to "Ooh Baby Baby. It is just great.
And his background singer has a very beautiful voice, tone and pitch. What quality!
Her name is Pat Henley
I liked the way they slowed down the tempo--sounds more romantic and pleasing.
Les Morosi yesss , good lord he can sing, wow
Surely it’s much easier to sing this song slowed down as well. Extraordinary talent nonetheless.
voice of an angel
*voice of AN angel

The sound of the saxophone makes this song so great combined with the smooth soothing voice of Robinson in this live performance
Saw Smokey live 2 years ago and had tickets to see him in Tulsa this year but got cancelled because of the virus. He just gets better and hope to see him again soon. No words to describe the genius and talent of this man and his voice.
This is perfection
I don’t think the audience appreciated just how superb this performance was. Wish O could’ve been there. That was legend.

One of the most beautiful renditions I have ever heard❤️
Smokey was always a sexy man ...Hes an excellent singer and his songs came from his heart and soul...I agree this audience should have given him a standing ovation...Damm this man is good as ever and still moves me...

They were stunned

THIS BEST SINGER OUT THERE, PERIOD! SOUNDS GREAT LIVE AS WELL IN A STUDIO. VERY FEW,VERY FEW SINGERS CAN DO THAT. SMOKEY IS A NATURAL GIFTED SINGER / SONG WRITER.
There are those who sang ooh baby, but none of them could sound and move you like SMOKEY ROBINSON
The Legend singing his signature legendary song
A gift from heaven. ❤️🔥👑
Love your music Smokey.
I wish someone would create a time machine so I could give Mozart and Beethoven and all the greats a set of headphones and see their reaction to this. I would put it up with any of them. A master at work.
What a superstar!!!
Smokey, thank you.
Effortless, brilliance, Smokey.
Goose bumps. Reminds me of when Lady T serenaded Smokey with this song. R.I.Paradise Lady T,see you when I get there,
Lord have Mercy Smokey can sang your Panny Off. Every time he came to the Apollo Theater in the 60s I was front row center🔥🔥💯❤️❤️❤️😅 Happy Birthday Smokey🙏🏽🙏🏽

You got that right. A man who shares his gift and appreciates it.
Trini -- love how you describe him (The smooth assassin) lol
Honey who do you think they learned it from??????
Only the late, great Sam Cooke did it better!! That's who inspired Smokey...
He gives me The Chills!!!🔥🔥🔥
Best Soul Singer for MANY YEARS
I love Smokey. What a voice. Pure soul.
