    I wish we could have Motown Mondays everyday. Love it.

    The great David Ruffin, lead singer of the Temps at that time. I was 12 years old when this song came out and instantly I knew that Motown was my music. There's a great documentary called "Standing in the Shadows of Motown" about the Funk Brothers - the house band that played on every Motown song you've ever heard until 1972, when they backed up Marvin's masterpiece album What's Goin' On. Then Berry Gordy moved the shop to L.A. and that was that for the Funk Brothers. Without them there would be no Motown sound. Sorry to go on and on, but really, this music is the soundtrack of my life.

    I love that Smokey Robinson's muse when he wrote this was his wife Claudette, who was one of The Miracles🎶 You're so right about it being such a present for us all, including the Temptations; Smokey has always been so generous with his creative talents💝

    This was masterful. Besides the glorious harmonies, they had the looks, the unmatched choreography, the smoothness and talent that made them the Temptations. The lyrics provided by Smokey Robinson and Ron White guaranteed this would be a huge hit. And now 60 years later, it’s still a song that most people know and sing. Kudos too to the fabulous Funk Brothers for the great instrumentation. Everything about this was great. Thank you so much for the great memories. Wishing you both a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Love Airplay Beats. 👏👏🥰🎄

    When I was a teen growing up in North Philly I wanted to be cool and smooth so my role model was David Ruffin. As Sonny Hobson aka The Mighty Burner on WDAS would have said back in the day--give it up for the tall--tan--talented--tempting--Temptations. By the way--a young Daryl Hall worked for the Temps in the mid 60s...
