A slow, remorseful number, "Ooh Baby Baby" features Miracles lead singer Smokey Robinson lamenting the fact that he cheated on his woman, and begging for her to overlook his mistakes and please forgive him. The song's highly emotional feel is supported by the Miracles' background harmonies, and a lush orchestral arrangement that accents the Funk Brothers band's instrumental track.
