I truly believe their version is about black ppl being happy ,at peace and free. There’s a feeling I get listening to it no matter how many times I hear it . Its truly a spiritual song and I think that’s why it’s so special to us 💙
Bass Lead: Melvin Franklin (Original Member); narrator/lead: Dennis Edwards (replaced David Ruffin). High Tenor lead: Glenn Leonard (replaced Damon Harris, who replaced Ricky Owens who replaced original member Eddie Kendricks).This song was cut in LA in the summertime and all of Dennis' comments were ad libbed in one take. Billboard has ranked the Temptations as the bestselling selling R&B/Hip Hop group of all time.
Pretty cool reaction guys. Was your producer living under a rock??? I’m not even American , I grew up in another country and I new The Temptations. Some of the best harmonies
If Nat King Cole’s version of The Christmas Song is the Bourbon on the Rocks for the holidays…the Temps Silent Night is the Cognac straight up (Henny neat like your Unc do!)🥃
This is a Non-Christmas Temptations song but you should check out Treat her Like A lady live at the Apollo. I'm the ultimate Temptations fan and there's only one original member still alive from the group and that's Otis Williams who just turned 80 years old a month or two ago!

I came from a Perry Como family but this is just better. My favorite christmas song now is Tim Minchins "White Wine in the Sun".
Its a masterpiece to me!

You should check out "Delta Rhythm Boys" with "Flickorna i småland" or "Tre trallande jäntor".

Melvin's mother stated that his voice was already that deep by the age of 13.
Juniors! This song was on a studio album first. Temptations Give Love On Christmas.81 3 OGS were not there.
Please do a temptations movie review with him since he doesn’t know much about the temptations! They movie is so good
For the record a lot of people thinks that Eddie Kendricks is doing the falsetto lead but it is Glenn Carl Leonard doing the lead
Melvin had another song where he sang lead completely :)
Ol’ Man River

You kept interrupting the song to say things that made no sense and it messed up enjoying the song 😮.
Pause, talk, pause , talk. Man, that is so annoying.
