My pick for this week’s song from American Idol is the song that Stefano Langone sang last night – made famous by the great Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes.  There is never anything like the original artist that first made  you love the song – but Stefano’s rendition was so beautiful last night – I believe he could make a single with that song right now.  And you know the really cool thing about Stefano?  I have a former voice student who actually went to junior high and high school with him.  She said she always loved it when he had a solo.  Now all of America can see why!

Here’s to you Stefano – our own “local” boy – keep bringing those awesome songs back into our memory banks and introduce old things to those who are too young to remember.

Below is the original artist singing this great song.  Click on the link and then click again on “Watch this on Youtube” and you will be directed to the video.

Enjoy and God Bless

If you don’t know me by now
You will never never never know me

All the things that we’ve been through
You should understand me like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference between right and wrong
I ain’t gonna do nothing to break up our happy home
Oh don’t get so excited when I come home a little late at night
Cause we only act like children when we argue fuss and fight

If you don’t know me by now (If you don’t know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won’t)
If you don’t know me by now
You will never never never know me

We’ve all got our own funny moods
I’ve got mine, woman you’ve got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we’ve been together it should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair when you can’t see eye to eye, oh

If you don’t know me by now (If you don’t know me)
You will never never never know me (No you won’t)
If you don’t know me by now (You will never never never know me)
You will never never never know me (ooh)
