Biography

A trio of sisters with a strong gospel base, The Emotions (based in Chicago) were one of the leading female r&b acts of the '70s. Lead singer Sheila Hutchinson and her sisters Wanda and Jeanette were only teenagers when they crashed the soul charts in 1969 with the engaging "So I Can Love You," but they sang gospel as children and enjoyed secular fame locally before signing with Memphis-based Volt and working with producers Isaac Hayes and David Porter. When Stax folded in 1975, the group hooked up with Maurice White of Earth, Wind & Fire, an association that led to the number one pop/r&b hit "Best of My Love" in 1977.

    Lyrics
    ‘Tis the season to be jolly
    But how can I be when I have nobody
    The yuletide carol doesn’t make it better
    Knowing that we won’t be together
    A silent night, I know it’s gonna be
    What Do The Lonely Do At Christmas - (3:25)  -  1,032 plays
