As always, please listen to both renditions then share your thoughts in the comments section.
"Baby, I'm for Real" is a soul ballad written by Marvin Gaye and Anna Gordy Gaye, produced by Marvin and recorded and released by American Motown vocal group The Originals for the Soul label issued in 1969.
In 1992, R&B group After 7 sought to revive this song while recording their Takin' My Time album. Issued as the first release off that album, they also covered parts of Bloodstone's "Natural High". The song returned to the upper reaches of the R&B charts some twenty-three years after it was first recorded, eventually peaking at number five. - Wikipedia

I like both but the Originals are my favorite. But I love how After 7 blended "Natural High" to the end of their version.

The Originals. 1969 seemed like such a good year for Motown…that whole decade really but this year in particular. So many classics came out that one year.

Man, without a doubt the Originals did it best. After7 did what most artists do when they try and remake something great. They do too much and it takes the art down a notch.

Hats off to After 7 for their creativity, however, the Originals had that slow and deliberate harmonic grove that caused unchecked emotions to flounder.

I'm Sorry but the very first time i heard the Originals recording of Baby Im for real i fell in love with that song because it not only said all the things i felt in my heart as far as love was concerned but it lifted and stirred my soul as with all really good love songs do and it became and still remains one of my all time favorite expressions of love, in.regatds to After 7 they sound just as soulful and smooth with their rendition of the original, in all honesty i love them both, i suppose its the hopeless romantic in me as well as my appreciation for not only good music but the heart passion and emotion that is felt in the delivery of the song and both are very good at that here, if therei is anything different that i love more its the musical arrangement of the original now that's got me swept.

99% of the time the original (no pun intended) is better than the remake. That holds true in this case. Still love After 7 though.

No one (even at Motown) could touch Originals 4 part harmonies, much less the incredible fluctuations of CP nor the haunting ferocity of Hank Dixons’ 1-2 co-leads. Motown Forever.

After listening to the first 3 or 4 seconds of them both it was EXTREMELY easy to decide , of course the original by a million miles no Shade on the remake version . That’s my opinion , and I’m sticking with it to the grave and beyond !!! Need I say more ? B1 . Amin and Shalom .

This is no easy contest. The Originals are on top of their game, but After 7 has the advantage of modernity. The Originals are no doubt number one, but so is After 7. It is a close call, but I vote After 7 because the sound is crisp, and there is clear emotional involvement. I would play both versions.
