Okay, I've heard the song a zillion times over the years and never absorbed who it was by. I'm speaking of "What Does It Take (To Win Your Love)". Without looking it up, I could have sworn that it was by someone like Lou Rawls, you know, someone known primarily as a singer. When I gave up, I looked it up. Junior Walker. I'm embarrassed that I didn't know that. But I'm not going to dwell on it. The whole reason the topic came up is because I was digging on Alton Ellis's cover of it and couldn't believe that I didn't know who did the original despite hearing it no less than a zillion times. Regardless, dig it.

If you register at 45Cat, you can type a song title, or part of a song title, into its search box and select Track. It will disclose all the artists who have released a track with that title.
Granted, not all of them will be the same composition [How many songs are there titled "Do It Again"?], but you should be able to discern who was the original performer of the song you heard.
