"Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)" is a soul song written by Thom Bell and Linda Creed that was originally recorded by the Philadelphia soul group The Stylistics.
The Stylistics Original version
An R&B ballad, it was the first track from their 1971 debut self-titled album[1] and was released as a single in 1971 and reached #39 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.[2] In addition, it also climbed to #6 in the Billboard R&B chart.[2]
Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross version
Around the same time, Motown wanted their most successful label mates Gaye and Ross to record a duet album. Among the songs they released, their version of "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)" was recorded in separate studios, and was released as a UK only single from their duet album, Diana & Marvin, in 1974. The song became a hit in the UK reaching #25 on the UK Singles Chart.
In 2001 the Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross duet version was used as part of the movie soundtrack for Bridget Jones's Diary.
