This song reminds of The Charts”Desary”. The music of the 50’s is in my soul. Even though I’m 78 I love that do whop music. The Chi-lites too. I’m a lover of all that.
I'm 77yrs old now and am so lucky to have been young in the best musical era's of the 60's and early 70's and listening these fantastic vocalist RIP all you Motown and Soul artists who have sadly left us

Memories that can nvr be erased. I met my future husband at a High School " sock hop " in 1969. I went home and told my parents I met the man I was going to marry..they just laughed. Six months later I married that man. We are still married. Thank you Marvin Gaye, thank you to the Originals for a song that crushed our hearts and gave a life time of memories. Fifty five years and still learning, loving and growing.
My goodness they was still sounding great after all these years. I’m telling you, growing up in the 70’s we heard so much great music. With so many great songwriters really writing meaningful songs. And all the artists could really sing. No auto tone or computer gimmicks. Just real talent. What a great live performance.
Absolutely! Saw Santana and the Righteous Brothers live. at Filmore in San Francisco.and The gorge at George. And Janis Joplin was amazing 🤩 Good times!! Wish I could have seen Olivia-Newton John. 0:47 Unforgettable! Such talent! Watched “Flash dance” and “Grease” over and over
That’s true. I don’t know why Berry Gordy was like that. I’ll never forget seeing a Eddie Kendricks interview, it was given probably about 5 yrs before his passing; was asked about Gordy, and he stated that he never really knew the man, and he rarely spoke to the guy.
The first concert I ever attended featured these guys as part of the motown Review of nineteen sixty eight.. This was what you call perfection.. originals sang Live.. I have never heard anything quite As beautiful and perfect sense.. This Group:par excellence!!! They have never gotten the recognition they truly deserve.. Out the ballpark with this one🫠🙂🥰😍🤩😀😃
Once you got it you never lose it because it's a gift natural and a live band most young people today use mechanical help they could learn a thing or two from these guys I am old school all the way 77 yrs young on this night August 16th 2024❤❤
Boy oh girl oh boy Baby I'm For Real is so beautiful 🎉by The Originals! Trust me Terrie Dixon Hanks daughter caught me for the first time hearing her sing melted my ❤️ heart immediately I fell in love with her,she so gifted and talented her Father and the rest of the Singers God Bless them🎉❤
The young lady (Jackie Hicks) was one of The Andantes, another back-up group for Motown. The group sang background vocals on numerous Motown recordings, including songs by Martha Reeves & the Vandellas, the Temptations, Stevie Wonder, the Four Tops, Jimmy Ruffin, Edwin Starr, the Supremes, the Marvelettes, Marvin Gaye and the Isley Brothers, among others. It is estimated they appeared on 20,000 recordings.
@@hossridr1 What?? Jackie Hicks? The photos of The Andantes show Jackie Hicks to be dark skinned and kind of heavyset, and she would be WAY older than the young lady in this performance. This is Terrie Dixon, Hank Dixon's daughter. They re-established The Originals in the mid 2000s.
In 1969 I always danced with My favorite Girl to this song. It brings back such fond memories. I was a Mailman and later a Postmaster. Loved Freddie Gorman.
A R T ... MASTERPIECE... These documentation recordings is the Paintingz they leave behind.. Immortalized ... Its Sept 2024 & still these pieces should be revered.
I recall this song and group it was one of my favorites! One of the singers lived down the street from me in Detroit. The lyrics and vocals of this is amazing! I wish that music could sound like this again. When I think of R&B this is an example of what R&B music sounds like. Many singers and groups are listed as R&B and they are Pop. Can anyone name an R&B group today that has this kind of vocals and lyrics and not spewing hate. R&B music was about love, feeling sad and missing someone etc. I would like for someone to name someone today who is doing true R&B music.
I'm 75 years old and danced many nights to this song on the dance floor. Just listening to this song took me on a journey back in time I'll never forget. Graduated from Northwestern High in Detroit, not far from Motown, where many Motown artists attended.
I was a mailman in Los Angeles ,my first instructor believe it or not was Freddie Gorman ,what a nice man ,I came in late my first day and he was so cool ,He unfortunately was diagnosed with cancer and passed away two years later but he and his son cut a gospel tract ,I got one signed by him and his son ,I gave it to a friend for X Mas,RIP Freddie G .Cool man what a history !
I was in the same training class as Freddie, my postal start date was 2/22/82 at Bicentennial Station. This was Freddie's second time with the post office😊
Beautiful my love of my life song that song to me when I was a little girl I lost him he passed at 17 but he left this song back here for me to always remember him
I was in high school when this came out, we use to cut school and have "sets" in someones house, grooving to this song! Sang it over and over and over again, just love it!
You be remember as a great human being,who sang songs without knowing you were singing our very life time Thank you you will live forever gave us the very best of you
These were days when music fed your soul, not a wallet like it is nowadays.
LOUDER PLEASE Truth be told 😊😊

This Song has been one of my favorites as a young girl in 69. I even seen them perform live on stage in 72✨💖✌🏽
You hear me ❤2024 ❤ I'm 62 and reminded me of Good things
One of the best songs of all time! Baby I'm For Real!!!
No doubt
Marvin poured his heart when he wrote that. and that group was Motown best kept secret.
Thomas .. A bigger secret is Marvin Gaye doing background at Motown , listen to Mary Wells , You Beat Me To The Punch, check Marvin out

Wow back in the day when music was music 🎉😂😊❤❤❤
This was lovely. Memories of '69 come flodding back.

I mean the Righteous Brothers at the Gorge.
The Originals, the Funk Brothers and other backup groups never got their just accolades until later years.
That’s true. I don’t know why Berry Gordy was like that. I’ll never forget seeing a Eddie Kendricks interview, it was given probably about 5 yrs before his passing; was asked about Gordy, and he stated that he never really knew the man, and he rarely spoke to the guy.
True fact
They still sing it the same😭😭😍😍😍
I’m a 67 yo.white guy crying my eyes out to this song. Omg I love my soul music ❤❤❤. The emotion is like nothing else on earth .
A wonderful gift of a classic by the ORIGINALS !!!!!
Back in the day when people held each other and dancing the slow drag was popular, this was the king of all jams.
Marv the Genuis RIP
Playboy's playboy, what, who wouldn't wanna hear such ear candy

Love this song! One of the most beautiful songs ever written and didn't know Marvin wrote it. Originals...you are awesome. Love
I didn't know that either. I fell in love with this song when I was a very young girl. My mom played it a lot.
This was beautiful and to have everybody back except C.P. was everything may he RIP🕊️🕊️🕊️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I really like this version, and the lady (I cannot find out who she is) does great, but the original with C P Spencer is just perfection.
@stevemalta3701 Indeed 💯

Fantastic thanks for sharing
Still sounds beautiful and the young lady fits perfectly.

They did the background on just ask the lonely for the four tops that's the one that you really hear them on@@hossridr1

When i hear this song it reminds me of American band stand when i was a little girl
That high tenor part,"when you cry ,you wonder why you cry im telling you no lie this how I feel" is a real difficult to cover, but she pulled it off.
❤❤❤ love The Originals
Thank you so very much for signing this song. I thank God for this, too. Aman ❤
This song will always be a hit in my head and heart I knew it was a hit as a kid 🙏🏽❤️✔️🎼
