      Jovaughn, you need to watch "Muscle Shoals" on Netflix. Also search for "Standing in the Shadows of Motown". These are 2 essential documentaries that will educate you on this genre. Both excellent, you will not be disappointed. Hope you do and let us know what you think. Be well, God bless.✌

      "The Tears of a Clown"
      "Shop Around"
      "The Tracks of My Tears"
      "I Second That Emotion"
      "You've Really Got A Hold On Me"

      I saw him in Detroit driving down the street in his green convertible w/his trademark glasses. I started yelling & he laughed/waved & blew me a kiss. BTW, the songwriter Smokey Robinson (though I never met him) is my cousin. He & my dad hung out together before I was born. Motown had its acts on point in every aspect from vocals/the look/choreography. Every boy band that has synchronized dancing has The Temptations to thank!

    "My Girl" was written by Smokey Robinson and released in late 1964. You should react to "My Guy" by Mary Wells, which was also written by Smokey Robinson and was released earlier that same year in the spring of 1964. Both of these Motown songs hit No. 1.

    OK, bro. Now you're getting serious. This is one of THE songs of the 1960s. It hit the airways in '65 and never looked back. A bit of trivia: The song was written by Smokey Robinson as an answer song to another great song, "My Guy" by another Motown artist that you should check out, Mary Wells.

    This one's my personal favorite from The Temptations. They were SO good! Smooth. And yeah; back in the 60's, Motown wanted the groups to dress the same. And of course, there was the choreography. Those days are long gone, and what a shame. But as you said, we can, and SHOULD play for future generations. GREAT reaction! Love it, as always.

    You really need to see the mini-series on the group, it gives a great dramatized history showing where they came from, how they came together, how they made it big, the problems, the member changes, etc. It's worth seeking out.
    There ought to be music history classes in school to keep these songs alive as you said, teach kids the roots, the growth of different genres, the historical context, the forms music came in, listen to the top songs each month from periods being taught.

    Great music, the drum intro at thr start of the song became the trademark referred to as the "Motown Sound" it was used again and again by many of the Motown artist on many, many songs. David Ruffin was a legend check out his Who I Am album "Walk away from love" and the amazing "Statue of a fool" The check out Eddie Kendricks another former member of the Temps' singing "Keep on trucking. Then find Willie Hutch who was not in the Temps' singing "Brothers gonna work it out" both disco classics from the 70's -- Motown for ever!!😊😊😊

    That girl and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary last May. we have been together since the spring of 1976. This song still makes me smile, and still makes me think of her. I hope that every man on the face of the earth has the chance to find his soul mate like I did, and that they call this song there own, like we do.

    One of my all time favorite songs! When these Motown songs first came out there was a local TV show right over the bridge from Detroit to Canada. It was called “Swinging Time”. Kids from school would go over there to dance on the show. They had guest performers and that’s where we first saw the Motown groups. I watched on TV because I was afraid of the bridge and the tunnel!! You really should watch the movie “The Temptations”. It’s a good movie and good history lesson! ❤️🎵

    "Ball Of Confusion" is another great one of The Temptations. The words ring true.

    Me dat used to sing this for me, and told me it was written for me, and would dance through the living room me feet on his. My dad, my world, my hero, joined my dear mother 4,5 months after her passing, and this song brings me right back to those days, even when I learned it was written before I was born 😀

    The Temps are one of the best groups with so many different singers over the years and so many great songs , unforgettable ! This is just such a feel good song ! My favorite is now the full CD For Lovers only from 1995 and all the songs a special meaning for me !

    This was their song that set their career into orbit. It was Number One on The Pop Charts and Number One on The R & B Charts for Six Weeks. It was written by Smokey Robinson who wrote and co wrote alot of their early hits including Beauty's Only Skin Deep, I Know I'm Losing You, Get Ready. His Co Collaborator was Fellow Miracle Ronnie White and they guys taught it to them at The Apollo Theater and the rest is History. The Guitar Solo was done by Late Funk Brother Robert White. If you can check out Standing In The Shadows Of Motown, where you see and meet the guys who performed on 100 Of Motown's Greatest Hits. As for the Choreography it was done by Former Tapdancing Great Cholly Atkins. They were a major influence on both The Jackson Five & The "Original" New Edition. Also if you can check them out singing "It's Growing", you'll also be blown away by The Choreography.

    Classic song from the sixties. I still remember the first time I heard this. 1964.

    I'm realizing that the dance steps that Temptations are doing looks like the dance steps that Bruno/Anderson did in their performance for the song "Leave The Door Open". Bruno is keeping this style of music alive!

    David, Eddie, Melvin, Otis and Paul were the smoothest dudes to ever perform on stage. Sadly, only Otis is still with us. Long live the Temps.

    I would have been surprised if you hadn't heard this song. I am so glad you love the Motown style. There is a Robert Townsend's movie called "The Five Heartbeats" that is loosely based on the temptation if you get to watch it I believe you would enjoy it.

    • @jamarrhubbard7426

      The Five Heartbeats is one of my favorite movies!!! the film is loosely based on the lives of several artists: The Dells, The Temptations, Four Tops, Wilson Pickett, James Brown, Frankie Lymon, Sam Cooke and others according to Wikipedia. Robert Townsend produced and starred in it. Leon is your go to guy to play any singer...he even did Little Richard and David Ruffin in the Temptations movie.
