Smokey Robinson also wrote for Motown. Know he wrote for The Temptations. It took 2 years of songs written before Berry Gordy was satisfied with their 1st hit: "My Girl" ~ 2 YEARS! And voila, 5 young, talented Men became Stars ~ Rest is History ~!
Twon, I saw a beautiful tribute to Mary Wells (RIP), by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (inductees), within 3 years of it's inception. "Stoned Love", and " Reflections", OMFG.
Yes. That was Diana Ross in the center. I recall those days as if they were yesterday. And although they played in black and white on our TV sets, believe me our world was in living color. Another artist you need to check out is Johnny Mathis.
The 60's was a great decade, coinciding with my teenage years. It was like an explosion of musical creativity, every month producing some blockbusting record. The difference is that we had to save our pennies in order to hear the music, only some being played on the radio. Now, you just click a button & it's all free! But whereas we had it in dribs & drabs, you have it all coming to you at once. But it's a treasure all right.
For years and years I always thought they said I known of Noni Muir not "I've known of your", my mom's name was Noni Muir and I would yell out, "Mom you're in a Supremes' song!!
Their songs they were my favorite growing up in the 90s and yes i listen to that stuff cuz my dad played alot of 60s music and i was born 89 and im 32 this year i still listen to the 60s when i get a chance while i clean
As much as I've listened to this song over the years (late 70s baby, here), I've never really isolated the bass. Man, listen- whole Motown style/sound arrangement was progressively unique and untouched! I know classics arguably shouldn't be tampered with, but I'd love to hear a 2021 version, placing emphasis on that bass section. 🔥
This is a live version. It was a number one on billboard. A tad before I was born but a real music lover listens to music that is older than said subject. Here you can hear ALL of the voices. A true Supremes song
Growing up in a small town in the UK in the 60s, every girl I knew spent time with a hairbrush for a microphone singing in front of the mirror and wishing they were cool enough to be in the Supremes. Love this.
Yea!..Motown Monday’s! Cannot wait til “My Girl” It’s comin, right? I really am old I guess, still can’t believe there are people alive on this planet that haven’t heard this stuff! Thanks for this. ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Also, this version or line-up of the group was not billed as “Diana Ross and the Supremes“ - those first 10 number ones were all billed under “The Supremes” …
Classy Ladies ~! Berry Gordy was a genius ~ Saw the talent in Detroit AND Hitsville U.S.A. was created, later to become Motown ~ And turned the young and talented into Stars. The Motown Sound was unique. Forever Classic. Twon, glad to watch Motown Mondays with you. And there is A LOT of Motown. ~ The Temptations, Smokey Robinson, Martha & The Vandellas, and the beat goes on ~ Be back next Monday ~ Love & Happiness to my youngest and beloved Banger ( even though you are so mischievous sometimes, funny ) ~ Much Love, Itia ~! P.S. That's what Aussies call Italians, Itia(s) ~:-) ( Just so you know ) Ciao ~!
It's important to note they are singing this live. The mic leads are taped to the stands for tidiness. BTW please listen to "It's A Shame" by the Spinners.
Motown Monday is a great idea! Thanks for bringing it to us. Stop! In the Name of Love was The Supremes 4th consecutive number one in a row. They would make it 5 in a row with their next release and it’s a record they hold to this day. In total, with Diana as lead, they had 12 number ones which is the most for any American group ever, male or female. Some members of The Temptations helped the Supremes with the choreography and together they came up with the Stop! hand gesture. Diana is the lady in the middle and she still sings this song in concert using the same hand gesture with the audience doing the same. Lots of fun! I saw The Supremes sing this live in concert in 1965 and again in 1968. I recommend that you incorporate Diana’s solo hit “Chain Reaction” in your program. She recorded it in the 80s and it hit number one internationally. It has a total Motown/Supremes sound and in the video she travels from the 60s to the 80s. Fab.
I'd love to hear you react to other Motown classics like: "Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight & the Pips, "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" by The Temptations, and "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles. Enjoy!
the hollywood palace is in >drumroll< hollywood, lol. i mean, i guess it's still there, but it could be gone by now. i used to go to shows there a lot. it was a terrific venue. :)
Love love love the Supremes. So listen..have you ever been in a funk & wanted to gone outsidefor space/air & then suddenly ...refreshing gusts of cool wind cone along just snapping you out if that oppressive mood? That what listening to Calufornia Deamin' will do. Lyrics aren't deep...but it has a particular refreshing vibe I think you would appreciate. The group members are not related...they are a random lookin foursome...but their voices were made for one another. Super refreshing super cool groove
Here are some Motown songs for you! Motown Ain’t No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye Rubberband Man - The Spinners Reach Out I’ll Be There - Four Tops My Guy - Mary Wells Thank you
#NoLimitNation! 🔥 Don't sleep on Diana Ross' solo songs later in her career: "Do You Know Where You're Going To," "The Boss," "Endless Love" (duet with Lionel Ritchie) 💪🏾👊🏽😎
Hey ther 👋🏽👋🏽😁😁. Yes baby that’s Diana Ross. And I love how she sing all this great music back in the days. I LOVE THIS GREAT MUSIC 🎵 since the 80s. When I was a young 12 years old. And I still do in this year 2022 👍👍 I love music from the 60s 70s I just think it was the best music everrrrrrr!!! Unfortunately on my own personal opinion in this year2022 there isn’t much good music I don’t like all this lyrics and sii this reap theat that only talk about sex and cussing ( which is unnecessary ) I Just think when you have a talent And consider yourself a good respectful professional and. Definitely a great example for youngsters??? Why all the cussing and sex words and lyrics??? This is why I love to see youngsters like yourself going back to discover this great music from the 60s and 70s. Keep on listening and discovering what talent was all about . 👍👍🎵🎵👍👍🎵🎵 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Diana Ross & The Supremes/Reflections STUDIO VERSION. Video clips from this era are fun to watch but there were no stereo tv's then and live versions were seldom as good as the stereo studio version. You would be better off picking a lyric video instead. Just saying!
Mary Wilson was such an underrated talent. Unfortunately she was quashed by Diana Ross who was so self promoting and with Berry Gordy in her pocket, the other girls didn’t stand a chance
Knock off the "Diane Ross" revisionist history! This song was recorded by THE SUPREMES. There was no notion of a "Diana Ross and The Supremes" at this time. If you notice, everyone on this thread is calling them THE SUPREMES.....................why aren't you?
Yes, that is Diana Ross in the middle. Though the others had better voices, Diana had the 'look' that Motown thought would make the money. And it worked!
Diana, for sure.
Did he just say “is that Diana Ross in the middle?” 🤣🤣 Too cute.
Yes sir, that’s Diana Ross
R.I.H Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson.
The Supremes are supremely awesome. And yes, that's Diana Ross!
Oh son you got me reminiscing and yep, that’s Diana Ross
Diana, Mary, and Florence 💛
Diana Ross, lead vocals and legendary in every way possible. You can’t Hurry Love, Where did our Love Go and my favorite, Love Child !!! Just a few.
Supreme recommendations: "Baby Love," "You Can't Hurry Love," "Where Did Our Love Go" and "Come See About Me"
I’d be remiss if I didn’t add “Back In My Arms Again” to that list … that is one of my favorite Supremes records.
Yes that was Diana Ross in the middle, she was part of that group before she went solo, Motown history.
I believe there is not a Motown song that I do not like. Some more than others but ALL talented beyond words
Love The Supremes. They have a lot of great songs 😀
This was one of the many Motown hits written by the songwriting team Holland-Dozier-Holland.
Smokey Robinson also wrote for Motown. Know he wrote for The Temptations. It took 2 years of songs written before Berry Gordy was satisfied with their 1st hit: "My Girl" ~ 2 YEARS! And voila, 5 young, talented Men became Stars ~ Rest is History ~!
Twon, I saw a beautiful tribute to Mary Wells (RIP), by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (inductees), within 3 years of it's inception. "Stoned Love", and " Reflections", OMFG.
I will definitely be dropping in on "Motown Monday❣"

Look howbeautiful these women are. This is dixie from texas. Stop in name of love, diana ross was legendary.
I highly recommend "Chain Reaction" by Diana Ross.
Shirtless “Will Still Love Me Tomorrow “ and “Soldier Boy”
The Marvelettes “Please Mr. Postman”
Yes. That was Diana Ross in the center. I recall those days as if they were yesterday. And although they played in black and white on our TV sets, believe me our world was in living color. Another artist you need to check out is Johnny Mathis.
Johnny was a beast in his day. Beautiful voice 💓

I saw the supremes in dallas in 1964. I was 14. I was in love with diana ross. still am
Yes that was Diana Ross in the middle
Growing up in a small town in the UK in the 60s, every girl I knew spent time with a hairbrush for a microphone singing in front of the mirror and wishing they were cool enough to be in the Supremes. Love this.
Yea!..Motown Monday’s! Cannot wait til “My Girl” It’s comin, right?
I really am old I guess, still can’t believe there are people alive on

This is early Supremes, it's fun watching the progression of the group in other videos
Also, this version or line-up of the group was not billed as “Diana Ross and the Supremes“ - those first 10 number ones were all billed under “The Supremes” …

Supremes - Come see about me or baby love!
It’s so nice you saw them perform. It’s the proper introduction.
I'd love to hear you react to other Motown classics like: "Midnight Train to Georgia" by Gladys Knight & the Pips, "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" by The Temptations, and "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson & the Miracles. Enjoy!
Yes the one in the middle is Diana Ross, mother of Tracy Ellis Ross
In Hollywood California the Hollywood Palace☺️
the hollywood palace is in >drumroll< hollywood, lol. i mean, i guess it's still there, but it could be gone by now. i used to go to shows there a lot. it was a terrific venue. :)

The 60s equals happy music.

The Beatles had the most number one hits of any group with 20 and the Supremes were actually number two on that list with 12
THEE Supremes are: Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Diana Ross(middle). Individually talented and beautiful.
Motown❤️❤️❤️

Diana Ross...YYEPP
All 3 ladies are beautiful and talented in their own way. Florence Ballard is my personal favorite. She’s got an incredible voice.
Where can I fine all her #1 solo hits, I know she has many, with that so called great voice she supposedly had......
Diana Ross & Michael Jackson were very close friends.
Those 2 did a cool movie called The Wiz. I recommend you check it out.
67 year old white boy who woke up for school with this stuff on my transistor radio.
Add my vote for You Can't Hurry Love for your next Supremes song.
Welp...got up today with the song Like a Virgin in my head ???? But at least now it'll get replaced! 😀
She actors Tracey Ross and Evan Ross Mother
Tracy Ross is Diana Ross's daughter
Yes Diana Ross in the middle 🤨
I still like your reactions to the legend Diana Ross what will we do with out her?
Diana Ross & The Supremes/Reflections STUDIO VERSION.
Video clips from this era are fun to watch but there were no stereo tv's then and live versions were seldom as good as the stereo studio version. You would be better off picking a lyric video instead. Just saying!
Dianna Ross is in the middle
Mary Wilson was such an underrated talent. Unfortunately she was quashed by Diana Ross who was so self promoting and with Berry Gordy in her pocket, the other girls didn’t stand a chance
Weren’t they wonderful? The songs, the choreography of movement with the performance, …
Check out the movie “Dream Girls” It’s their story.
It is not their story. Extremely loosely based. It's an inspired story
@@AlkalineInsides most definitely Florence Ballard story...only this movie had a happy ending for the character.
Knock off the "Diane Ross" revisionist history! This song was recorded by THE SUPREMES. There was no notion of a "Diana Ross and The Supremes" at this time. If you notice, everyone on this thread is calling them THE SUPREMES.....................why aren't you?
Can u pleaseee react to "Johnny Gill - My, My, My ...
He better stop before Diana ross goes all Carrie underwood on his truck...lol ...i had to...lol
Yes, that is Diana Ross in the middle. Though the others had better voices, Diana had the 'look' that Motown thought would make the money. And it worked!
