I lost my dad at the age of 73 , last night , this was his favorite song because it reminded him of his love for his wife (my mom) , I am absolutely floored but music always helps , and he continually told his grandchildren how Motown music was the greatest music that has ever been made. RIP Dad , we love you and you will live on in our thoughts and hearts and souls forever 🙏🏻🙏🏻
When I was 15 years old, I was hospitalized in a psych ward for a failed suicide attempt. In the ward were a lot of kids who were gang affiliated and lost. They would fight with each other, and sometimes the orderlies wouldn't step in to stop it. I saw a lot of crazy things in there. But one day, we were having what I think was a music therapy group, and they threw this song on. Everybody sang together. It was incredible. I'm 30 now, and this song takes me back there every single time I hear it.
❤ 25 years ago I was 28 depressed bad. Out in the yard. Suddenly a neighbor had Motown playing loud out in his yard. At first I bitched. I thought damn you ruined my peace and quiet. Dude saved my life that day. Became best friends. Never told him about any of that. He died suddenly in 17. Super guy
I was born in 64. My brother was 9 years older than me. He listened to all these groups. Gladys knight and the pips etc. This brings back great memories
Grew up in the 60's on so much of this music. I was a small town kid just dreamin' of life and love. This song spoke to my heart then and it still does in 2024.....
One of the greatest songs of all time. It was one of Eddie Kendricks best vocal performances. He was actually the first lead singer for The Temptations. Without his voice they would have never been the same.
This was my baby brother’s favorite song when we were growing up as children, he had an old soul at the age of 6. His favorite part was the chorus that he would sing 🎶 to. He was killed in July at the age of 53. This song hits me so differently now more than ever. I still can’t believe my baby brother is no longer with us. 😢
For those of us that grew up with Motown parents, The Temptations, Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Marvelettes, Aretha Franklin, Sam Cook, and Smokey Robinson and Miracles just to name a few were all staples in the home and because of our parents we know what good music should sound like 🖤
My daddy had this song on record. I remember my daddy gave it to my mom because she loved the Temptations as well. Still remember them dancing to this.🥹
Oh the clout in that last line "but in reality, she doesn't even know me". My imagination has run away with me in exactly this way at least twice in the past, but thankfully I'm soon to celebrate my 38th wedding anniversary and the reality is wonderful!!
…. But it was just my imagination ….. running away with me…. Wow 🤯. How powerful those lyrics are to us that listen to the song. And those we dream about; will never know.
Such a beautiful song...I remember listening late at night, my radio to my ear, to this jewel..The Temps were the best at harmonious singing...My favorite Temp song....❤
They just don't make music like this anymore. What a shame. Lyrics with real meaning. Harmony, pleasant in every way. No synthetic BS. No twerking women. None of that crap.
@@BenjimanBenjiman-df3fs Hi Benjamin, thanx for the shout my man, the very same to you & all your family, have a blessed time. Much respect from Portugal XX
The No. 1 most romantic song of all time IMHO. Perfect scenario, highly relatable, simple, perfect lyrics, perfect singing, beautiful instrumental accompaniment.
worked as busboy in Frontier Room (Ohio U.) as Temptations played on juke box. I would two step around the room, dancing to their music like My Girl and just my imagination. The two hours flew by. WOW, what a great sound even in later years. Always terrific guys.🎉
I did spotlight for the new generation of these guys and got hooked. Older couples would stand up and start old school slow dancing in front of he stage 😍 it was Beautiful. It made the song even better. They would say "with two dogs maybe three" 😂
I remember the day this song it the air waves, we were all enjoying the greatest time in American history, through music. This is something I knew, that the artist of the 50's 60's 70's were changing this country with the power of real dynamic undeniable talent.
Just cruising, listening to this song, all cares fade away. You wake up and do the best you can! Don't run away, just face everything and you will accomplish...
The last song that Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams sang on before they left the group. The other members were Otis Williams,Melvin Franklin, and Dennis Edwards. It was their third #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. It was also #1 on the R&B chart. Otis said in his 1988 autobiography of the group that this song was “Eddie‘a finest moment”.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Agreed
So blessed to grow up with all of 1:44 the great Motown community!
Just a 68 yo white guy who loves great music???❤❤❤❤
💕 July 23 2024 Still listen to the Motown Oldies..🎶🥀
Hearing this song makes me feel like a kid again, what a beautiful song we can all relate to.
I lost my dad at the age of 73 , last night , this was his favorite song because it reminded him of his love for his wife (my mom) , I am absolutely floored but music always helps , and he continually told his grandchildren how Motown music was the greatest music that has ever been made.

One of the nicest songs by The Temps! It was March of 71. I was 18 and driving a 59 TR3. I was in a band and life was sweet!

Bet this song was the schizophrenic guys favorite song

The days are definitely shorter. I remember dancing to this song 50 years ago. Wow, I can say that 😮
They don't write lyrics like this anymore❤
They sure don't. 😔
They don't have singers like this anymore...there will NEVER be again,because ppl aren't the same!!
I agree 😊@@1goldbaby
You're my imagination!
So true, everything is nasty now.
This music had heart and soul.
Who’s listening to this today going right back to memory lane 🥰
What does it make think you of ?
One of the greatest Iconic r&b songs of all time, never goes out of style
its not really r&b its 60's soul and falls under the banner of rock/soft rock
I was born in 64. My brother was 9 years older than me. He listened to all these groups. Gladys knight and the pips etc. This brings back great memories

The part where Paul sings, "Every night on my knees, I pray," just gets me every time. That line added so much depth to "Just My Imagination."
Yes that is simply the best
Wish I could turn back the hands of times. Those were the happiest days of my life. The 70's..
Who's still listening in 2024? Timeless.
I'm still listening!! I'm 72 yrs. Been Listening for many years!!❤
Me 😊

Timeless beauty. ❤
Hello!
Grew up in the 60's on so much of this music. I was a small town kid just dreamin' of life and love. This song spoke to my heart then and it still does in 2024.....
I'm here from Honolulu Hawaii, Aloha n Mahalo
What a great group of singers . What a great time to have been a young man ,,,!!!!!!
2024 love sounds, after witnessing so much bitterness, hate, and unforgiving, “going to heaven anyway”
The greatest vocal group of my lifetime
One of the greatest songs of all time. It was one of Eddie Kendricks best vocal performances. He was actually the first lead singer for The Temptations. Without his voice they would have never been the same.
Paul was the first lead singer. Songs where divided between him & eddie with Paul having more leads at first
Team work

Eddie Kendricks owned this song!

Man I wish we could go back in time to the late 60s early 70s when music was the bomb
Equality was uneven, but the music was revoluntionary. I was born in the 80's and absolutely love the 50's, 60's and 70's music.
Man, check out the WHOLE of the 60s, especially, MID.
Great Song! Jesus Loves You My Dear Friends! God Bless You Always! John 3:16
This song is genius on every level!!!
One of the Ultimate Crush Songs! Peace!
The song brings tears to my eyes. It was a different time. I remember very well.
It’s a pretty sad song.

"Just My Imagination" 1971. Romantic.
"Just My Imagination" 2024. Stalking.
It's just imagination.
More delusional than stalking, I would think.
They just don't make music like this anymore. What a shame. Lyrics with real meaning. Harmony, pleasant in every way.
No synthetic BS. No twerking women. None of that crap.

What an incredible band and these guys singing. Just another song that has held up.
The No. 1 most romantic song of all time IMHO. Perfect scenario, highly relatable, simple, perfect lyrics, perfect singing, beautiful instrumental accompaniment.
worked as busboy in Frontier Room (Ohio U.) as Temptations played on juke box. I would two step around the room, dancing to their music like My Girl and just my imagination. The two hours flew by. WOW, what a great sound even in later years. Always terrific guys.🎉
I did spotlight for the new generation of these guys and got hooked. Older couples would stand up and start old school slow dancing in front of he stage 😍 it was Beautiful. It made the song even better. They would say "with two dogs maybe three" 😂
Sang this in choir last school year at Glendale High School. So beautiful 🥺🥺.
This is gotta be a top 10 song of all time

The last song that
Eddie Kendricks and
Paul Williams sang on
before they left the group.
The other members were
Otis Williams,Melvin Franklin,
and Dennis Edwards.
It was their third #1 hit on
the Billboard Hot 100.
It was also #1 on the R&B chart.
Otis said in his 1988 autobiography of the group that this song was
“Eddie‘a finest moment”.
dont forget David Ruffin as well Jaylen
@@edwardlloyd6152
David Ruffin was fired before they did this.
He was fired in 1968.
Love this song!👍🎶💕
