Second Song Comparison

Improved Essays
I personally liked the second song as is not as corny lyrically as the first song, also the music and shouting style of the second song are more appealing to hear. I believe both songs are very similar and as both were Motown hits, which followed a certain pattern, as they had a sort of copycat motto, where they would use the same song writers and musicians and tend to commercialize the music they produce to appeal a bigger audience. I am very familiar with these two songs as I have heard them before on the radio and movies they are practically similar, however the second one to me was much better lyrically and the lead vocals delivery is very passionate, a truly nostalgic Motown sound.
