I Believe In You (You Believe In Me) by Johnnie Taylor starts quietly, with keyboard and a light tapping on the hi-hat. From there, it builds and builds, adding instruments and volume, for the first minute or so. It's a wonderful way to pull the listeners into this great tune about sustaining a relationship despite its obstacles.
This song features great lines like, "I heard your mother say loving me didn't make no sense/But when she put me down, you stood up in my defense." His voice is full of passion at times - an earnest vocal performance that really drives and sells this song. Written by Don Davis, this song reached #1 on the R&B chart, and #11 on the Billboard Hot 100.
