I went through every song so that I could make a mixed cd for my mother. After I did that, I then scrolled down and read everybody's comments. I got so many more songs to add to the list. Even I know who Tony Terri, Marvin Gaye, the O'jays,etc are and my mother loves them. Thank you for listing more.

I don't think "Seven Days" is one of the greatest slow jams of all times, although I like the song very much. What about "I Never Dreamed You'd Leave In Summer," "Voyage To Atlantis," "After The Dance," or "Loving You?" I don't know who made this list, but they don't know music very well.
