To think of how much history he’s contributed to the music industry is completely unfathomable , and to have him in the back of MY CAR??!!!! Absolutely CRAZY!!!! And he’s a genuine, nice guy all around. He tipped and let me take a pic with him!! Unforgettable. PB

In Smokey's Auto-biography, he talks about writing this song. He wrote it during his affair with an 18yr. old soul train dancer. YES. it's about his affair. His Auto-Biography is so deep. It's really a good book.

Many nights in Chicago, we grew up listening to The Temptations vs. The Miracles on wvon with HErb Kent the Kool Gent. This was music that went down in the best history books. Excuse my french, love The Temps, but, The Miracles rocked it everytime. Much, much props to my guys always, Mr. Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. P.S. I love a Smokey too. love guys always. Peace.

In a girls home I was in. We would play album "Quiet Storm" and I would cry while smoking cigarettes listening to " Agony and ecstasy" thinking of my first love. So many tears I have shed

Oh... But fun turned into love for both of us So now we pay forbidden lover's price Oh, cause love like ours is never, ever free (Free) You pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy) Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free) You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy) oh, oh Nights when you're alone, you know that I Laid with someone else beside me Oh, but you love me still and I love you You know I would no matter where I'd be Hey, but love like ours is never, ever free (Free) You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy) Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free) We got to pay some agony if we wanna have ecstasy (For the ecstasy), oh... Hey, got to pay some agony If we wanna have an ecstasy, yeah And we need each other desperately, don't we baby And I'll never from you be free, no, no So you'll have to do the leavin' me, yeah And you'll have to do the leavin' me, oh, baby Cause I'm gonna pay the agony, yeah Cause, oh, lovin' you is ecstasy, that's what it is And I'm willin' to pay the price, oh Cause I'll make it a sacrifice, oh, yes, I will And I'll never, never, never, never, never, never, never be free From agony
