    Big fan of the soul...
    I wish i would rain -- the temptations
    Belle -- Al Green
    Those are two that leap to mind immediately but I could go on and on, great music
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    I'm not absolutely sure if this one can be described as soul but I Love It!

    Pretty much anything with Booker T and the MG's as the backing band, but especially Soul Man and Hold On I'm Coming by Sam & Dave, and In the Midnight Hour by Wilson Pickett.

    Jackie Wilson - Higher & Higher

    It reminds me of Ghostbusters 2 and always makes me feel happy :)

    Sam Cooke - A change is gonna come.

    Simply the best soul voice ever.

    Honourable mention to Smokey's Track of my Tears
    "I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"
