}} }} "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" is a soul song most popularly released as a joint single performed by Diana Ross & the Supremes and The Temptations for the Motown label. This version peaked for two weeks at #2 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in the United States (behind Marvin Gaye's "I Heard It Through the Grapevine") and at #3 on the UK Singles Chart in January 1969. Written by Kenneth Gamble and Jerry Ross, it was originally a top 20 R&B hit for Dee Dee Warwick in 1966. It later was covered by Madeline Bell, becoming a top 30 hit in America in 1968. ==Early versions== All versions of the song credit the songwriting to Jerry Ross and Kenny Gamble, who were the only two writers named on original record labels. Some recordings also credit Jerry Williams as a third writer, although BMI and some other sources credit Leon Huff, rather than Williams. "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" was released as a single by Dee Dee Warwick on Mercury Records as the follow-up to her Top Ten R&B hit "I Want to Be With You"; co-writer Jerry Ross produced the track whose arrangement was by Jimmy Wisner while Nickolas Ashford and Valerie Simpson provided background vocals. This single - whose B-side is the earliest known recorded version of "Yours Until Tomorrow" by Gerry Goffin and Carole King - reached #13 R&B crossing over to #88 Pop in December 1966. Scoring two consecutive Top 20 R&B hits gave Warwick sufficient cachet for her first album release entitled ''I Want to Be With You/ I'm Gonna Make You Love Me''. Although Warwick had stronger chart showings than "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" the song became the best-known song which was a hit for her by virtue of the Supremes/Temptations remake and "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" was the song Warwick performed at the 1999 Rhythm and Blues Foundation awards ceremony when she received a Pioneer Award. Jerry Ross overall produced ten recordings of "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me":〔 these included a version on Jerry Butler's 1967 ''Soul Artistry'' album and another by Jay & the Techniques which was featured on the 1968 album release ''Love, Lost & Found''. Ashford & Simpson sang background on all the versions of the song Ross produced with the Jay & the Techniques version also featuring Melba Moore. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「I'm Gonna Make You Love Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
