Listen to the less known Rare Earth hit MA, written by Norman Whitfield, and considered one of their best works. Matching the song to scenes from Taylor Hackfords amazing motion picture Ray wasnt hard at all cause it is superb. If I ever write a song as great as Ma then I would dedicate it to Ray Charles\\\\\\\'s mom :-)..  And no it is not me singing this. I just love the song but not many would take the time to listen to it cause of the sheer length (originally 17 min) so I thought a video can encourage ;p
