Tracks of my tears

I would have thought that Tracks of my tears would be on this list.

It is listed under "The Miracles". The songs by this group were attributed to "The Miracles", "Smokey Robinson & The Miracles" and "Smokey Robinson" in various countries. We've tried to ensure as consistent a listing as possible which means that some songs are listed here under different artist names.
