Diana Ross & the Supremes were huge. She also had a massive solo career. ✌️🌻🌻
Her song "Chain Reaction" was written by the BeeGees. It is worth a listen.
The Supremes burst onto the music scene in 1964 while the British invasion was taking the US by storm. "Baby Love" and "Come See About Me" were massive Motown hits!
The UK gave the US the British Invasion, while we gave them the Motown sound during the mid-60's.
"Baby Love" "Come See About Me" "Stop, In The Name of Love" "Where Did Our Love Go' "You Can't Hurry Love" "My World Is Empty Without You Babe" ....
Oh man…I started singing each of those in my head as I read the titles. It’s in there for life.
@@helenespaulding7562 Haha ... Oh Yes, I hear them in my head too! Great songs, great memories.
One of my favorite songs ever. The Vanilla Fudge did a good cover but The Supremes were just that,supreme. 🕊💖🎸
....the vanilla fudge version featured in the Tarantino film Once upon a time in hollywood.
This song was my 1st introduction to Vanilla Fudge. Great album.
The Motown catalog from the 60's to the 70's will give all kinds of vibes
Have loved Diana Ross since 1963, Icon and legend. Great review.
I think y'all would love the way VANNILLA FUDGE🔥 covered this song in '67 one year after the Supremes released it in '66. Heavy, heavy organ rockin' and great vocal performance, Vanilla Fudge rocked it!💥They hit #6 on the Billboard charts but Diana Ross and the Supremes hit #1🤗❤️✌️
Love Child
LOVE IT ALSO ❤
One of their more social commentary songs was "Love Child" from 1968. The song is still relevant today, 56 years later!
Diana Ross was big in three decades. Everybody knew the Supremes. ""Stop in the Name of Love," "Where Did Our Love Go?," "Baby Love," "You Can't Hurry Love." Fair to say the songs were love songs. 🤗
This particular song was so popular that it hit #1 in '66, and then it hit #6 in '67 when it was covered by Vanilla Fudge.
Also in 1986 when covered by Kim Wilde.
I was introduced to the Supremes on The Ed Sullivan Show when I was 7 years old and have been a fan ever since...nearly 60 years!
I love classic Motown so much. Some of my favorite music ever. The Supremes, the Four Tops, the Temptations and many more. Just an incredible catalog of some of the best music from the 1960s. Well worth investigating on your channel.
My Mom would play their albums and dance around, I was 7 and remember it well in 1967 Motown was big in the 1960s we loved it!
These groups were game changers moving from the 50's type to new eara which means high creativity
Keep going down this rabbit hole, absolutely fantastic!!!!
Diana Ross had a fabulous career with The Supremes and as a solo artist. A huge rabbit hole of hits.
James Jameson and his 1963 Sunburst Fender Percision laid down a lot of heavy bass lines for many of the Motown artists.
Big name in session guitarists
The the great music background was done by the background group called the Funk Brothers who played on most of the Motown songs during this time period. Also the song was written by the talented writers Holland-Dozier-Holland who wrote most of the Suprmes biggest hits.
Diana Ross is now 80 and just released an album. She recently opened a show here in Detroit last month and she looked amazing! Sounded fantastic!😊
The Supremes were huge in the sixties. It seemed that they always had a song in rotation on the radio for years.
Reflections, is my favorite of their songs… it was also the theme song in a 1980s tv series called CHINA BEACH, about medics in Vietnam or Time. DANA Delaney starred in. If you ever seen the movie TOMBSTONE, you will know who she is….But anyway Diana Ross & The Supremes were a Motown diva group from the 60s
Love me some China Beach!! Wish some movie/tv series reactors would do China Beach…😊
@reneerocha1796 agreed, China Beach was such a good series in its day and largely to the excellent soundtrack that went so well with the show. Dana was a real hottie.
Love Diana Ross and the Supremes, grew up on this wonderful music. There are so many great songs here in their library of music. Epic and classic!
A little Motown. Oh yes. Thanks Frank.
I was born in 62 to a mom & dad who loved music & always had a nice stereo . Growing up in that time was amazing because there was so much great music in every genre and my parents listened to a lot of it.
Me too my mom loved the Supremes, she was furious with Diana Ross for splitting the group up. Me I hate Beyonce for doing the same thing. Diana Ross great singer but Mizz Wells was good too. Good clean the house music
Review Love Hangover by Diana Ross
I was born in 65, and we had that stereo that looked like a piece of furniture with the enclosed speakers and the turntable under the tabletop. It also had a built-in 8-track player. Good times.
❤ I agree! Motown is a must! I listened to Motown right along with my rock, pop, etc...This was a great choice!
I don't think I ever heard this version where the song doesn't fade out & I was a teen when this song came out
The legendary Motown "house band" that played on everything was called the Funk Brothers, and they always brought it. I believe that was the great James Jamerson you're hearing on bass. As a life-long Detroit, I appreciate you reacting to some Motor City vibes.❤ Btw, really like that new (?) hair style you've been sporting, Phil. As Rod Stewart would sing/say, "You wear it well."👍
I saw the supreme twice and they were unbelievable in person
This song has been covered many times and even as big hits for Vanilla Fudge in the early 1970s and Kim Wilde in the late 1980s.
Regarding Diana Ross, the Supremes had 12 #1 hits on the BILLBOARD Hot 100. After going solo, she had 6 #1 hits alone. The biggest hit, however, was a duet with Lionel Richie. Endless Love spent 9 consecutive weeks at #1 in the BILLBOARD Hot 100 in the late summer and early autumn of 1981. It was the title song from that movie.
If my calculations are correct, that would make 19 #1 hits total. Very impressive indeed.
ENDLESS LOVE is a must listen.
Love this song. Also very applicable to my life back then.
You need to listen to more in the 60's you definitely won't be disappointed. The Four Tops , The Temptations and it goes on!
Great song, great bass line, classic Motown! James Jamerson, one of the best bass players
Diana Ross and the Supremes are my favorite Motown group by far ! They had so may hits and were so popular ! Stop in The Name of Love", "You Cant Hurry Love" , "Love Child" and Baby Love " all Great Songs ! They had so much Love in the sixties ! Thanks Y'all Nice Reaction =)
Motown , never a bad song!
Only The Beatles had more #1 hits in the 60s than The Supremes, with good reason! So many wonderful songs!! My favorite is My World Is Empty Without You.
BTW - Supremes helped to make Motown Records a household name around the country. Now, Motown is regarded as one of the best catalogues of music around. Smokey Robinson (who wrote many of the songs for the label's artists) & The Miracles were another fabulous group. The Four Tops, The Temptations, Martha & The Vandellas, Marvin Gaye, & Jackson 5 are just a few more. Motown is one of the best rabbit holes you can jump into.
Now check out the same song from Vanilla Fudge recorded just a year later. They both were hits, one Motown, the other acid rock. It shows how fast the world and the music scene were changing in the mid sixties!
The Sixties were perhaps the most diverse decade in music. The Supremes were a big part of the sound as were other Motown groups. It was a great time to be young insofar as music of the day was concerned.
Count them 12 #1 hits.
Diana has had so many great songs where did our love go, aint no mountain high enough, come see about me, reflections, love hangover, upside down, swept away, someday well be together, touch me in the morning, the boss, take me higher, chain reaction,love is here& now youre gone, my world is empty without you, stop in the name of love, i hear a symphony, its my house, in and out of love, nothing but heartaches, im living in shame, reach out ill be there, remember me and tons more!!!
Motown from Detroit! Motown music was huge for Detroit! Berry Gordy help create not just a music scene and genre but so many fabulous musicians. Listen to Marvin Gaye.
Motown basically used the same backing musicians for all their 60s / Detroit hits. You might want to consider watching / reacting to the documentary Standing in The Shadows of Motown, which is the story of the musicians that played on all these Motown hits. They called themselves The Funk Brothers... highly recommended.
The rabbit hole of Motown your about to venture into will effect the entirety of life !
As a detroiter I look forward to your journey !! Happy subscriber !!😊
Motown is a whole world for you to investigate. Once Elvis made "black" music acceptable on "white" radio, the amazing world of MoTown exploded. Lots of harmonizing groups in coordinated outfits with tight choreography with great music. Martha & The Vandellas, The Four Tops, Smokey Robinson and the Miracles, lots of bands a hundreds of songs.
You CANNOT leave out the Temptations!😃
And Marvin and Michael!!!
I have been investigating Motown since I first heart the artists in the 1960's, love the music and the artists.
more Motown! the Staple Singers: Respect Yourself,I'll take you there
Reflections was by far my favorite from this group. For a cool contrast Vanilla Fudge remade this song truly as their own in a head rock version. It was a big commercial hit and a mainstay on rock FM stations at the time. Go with the longer over the studio version which was condensed for radio play. Great organ work there.
SUCH great music we had!!!😊😊😊
I used to love singing this song when I was young. Love Diana Ross and Supremes. They were Motown ❤
I think the "Morse code" sound is a Hammond B8 electric organ.
I was a teenager during the Motown years and the Supremes were one of my favorite groups. Their lyrics have been in bedded into my brain cells and come out wheneverI hear any of their songs
Embedded.
She was all of it! THE LYRICS!
you guys should review Sonny and Cher's 'And the Beat Goes On'---another '60s classic
Great request and reaction!! The Supremes have a whole bunch of hit hits from back then. This song came out when I was in college. During football games I remember the majorettes would do a performance along with the Supremes song I Hear a Symphony. Also, the band baking the Supremes are The Funk Brothers. They were the house band for all of the Motown artists. They were a group of 20 Detroit based jazz musicians who Berry Gordy recruited. And they've been featured on more number one records than those by the Beetles, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, and the Rolling Stone's combined. Looking forward to more of Motown!! Again, I really enjoyed your reaction!❤
You should listen to their "A Lover's Concerto." It has classical music roots.
The Supremes were three very young Detroit girls who hung around Motown waiting for a break and had a series of flops before they had 12 #! singles on Billboard's chart, including 5 in a row in 1964-5, and about 7 more in the Top Ten. Their first big hit was a song that Martha and the Vandellas rejected (Martha Reeves had been a Motown secretary.). The songwriters Holland-Dozier-Holland were incredible for Motown, as were the Funk Brothers musicians and the whole Motown organization. The story of Motown is amazing and very interesting and worth learning about.
You can't go wrong with them Motown was so good and it still is it's real music and nothing like today
Phil, love your haircut. Looks great on you. Great reaction!
Pop perfection. Still fresh as a daisy,nearly 60 years later .
Motown Forever! 👏👏👏👏👏
The whole album is great..grew up on this great music😊
Love Diana Ross and The Supremes. They have so many awesome songs. Please keep reacting to them. Check out Diana Ross's singles she has done. Love your reactions!
Great reaction, Sam and Phil! I was in high school when Motown hit pop radio. It was, and still is, a great sound! Not only was the music very catchy but the groups were true performers on the stage.
There are hundreds of amazing songs from the Motown catalog. From 1959 to the early 80s. Explore!
@Bars & Barbells- Dianna ross is one of the greatest to ever do it. Once she left the Supremes she had a very successful solo career. Check out her song Upside down. Thats her singing solo.
Growing up only 28 miles outside of Detroit, I was raised on Motown on my AM radio station, WKNR.
Motown rabbit hole - let’s gooo!!!
This song is a banger for the ages. The "morse code" was a guitar. The bass player...James Jamerson...check him out...nearly every Motown hit include James and the rest of the Funk Brothers...literal hit machines.
Hell Yeah Chicago WLS 89am... some memories there for sure.
❤❤❤❤ welcome back to the 60s❤❤❤❤❤ it’s gold❤
Love Motown. My home town😊
Neve heard that ending before but it was good.
It hard sometimes hearing the things you say about NOT KNOWING LEGENDS …..ICONS
You need to do a live video of the Supremes.
Ed Sullivan adored them and had them on his show frequently during the 1960s.
If you made a list of the top ten singing groups of all time, The Supremes have to be on it. Along with the Beatles, Beach Boys, Bee Gees, Franki Valli and the Four Seasons, the Carpenters, ABBA, the Rolling Stones, etc.
Motown 🤩🔥
The core of the Motown Sound was the rhythm section of the Funk Brothers, bass & snare drums. They were prominent on most of Motown's recordings including this one. You stated it sounded like something from the 80's, well coincidentally, it hit #1 in the states again with a cover by Kim Wilde. If you ever get a chance, checkout the Motown Experience in Detroit, that's right across from Windsor my Canadien friends. 😄
Kim Wilde cover is from the 80s , this 66 version was ahead of time., genius.
Kim Wilde - You Keep Me Hangin' On (Official Music Video) 1986 Remastered
Kim Wilde version is boring
My first crush, 73 now.
Just one of the groundbreaking acts made famous by the Motown record label! Now check out the Temptations, the Four Tops, Mary Wells, Little Eva, Martha & the Vandellas, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, & the Jackson 5 (I know you've already done the last guys, but there's plenty more where that came from).
Diana Ross was one of the soloists in USA FOR AFRICA. Check out her version of AIN'T NO MOUNTAIN HIGH ENOUGH.
Before the Supremes signed with Motown all three members alternated singing lead depending on the style of song. With Motown, founder Barry Gordy changed this. He saw star potential in Diana Ross so he made her the lead singer and the other two were relegated to backup singing. Eventually the group name was changed from The Supremes to Diana Ross and the Supremes. Inevitably Diana Ross left the group for a solo career.
The songwriting and production team was Holland-Dozier-Holland who wrote and produced this song as well as songs for The Four Tops and other Motown artists of the 60s.
If you listen to more early to mid 60s Motown, the definition will grow on you.
The Supremes were the most successful female act of the 1960s, and third most successful of that decade behind only The Beatles and Elvis. They also had the final Number One Billboard hit of the 1960s. (One of my favorites of theirs is "Love Child" from 1968.)
Elvis hit #1 six times in that decade: 3 in 1960, and once each in '61, '62, and '69. The Supremes hit #1 five times in a row from the summer of '64 to the summer of'65, then a sixth time in late '65. The Supremes hit #1 six more times by the end of '69 for a total of 12, making them second place behind The Beatles' 18.
All the Supremes hits were special sounding. Truly iconic group. Motown truly helped dissolve any barriers that may have existed between Blacks and Whites musically. Motown is my favorite genre not named Elvis or the Beatles.
The fact that some people in the west never heard this song is wild. Yes I'm old.
Beepy morse code thingy = electric guitar playing a syncopated rhythmic pattern in octaves (2 of the same note played one octave apart) plus organ playing chords underneath.
There were real prominent cover versions of this lovely song, my favorite always was by The Vanilla Fudge. Also there were a version by Kim Wilde, Rod Stewart and some more.
You should listen to the version by Vanilla Fudge:
Vanilla Fudge "Keep Me Hangin' On" on The Ed Sullivan Show
Great reaction. This is another Holland-Dozier-Holland composition.
This is not another diva. She the TOP OF THE FREAKING FOOD CHAIN DIVA!!!
Real music and talent from people who could actually sing. That was the 1950s thru 1980s.
How can anyone alive never have heard this song before?!?! It is one of the BIGGEST songs of the 1960s!!!
Tim Capello with i still believe from the movie the lost boys, fun fact, Tim was a background all round musician for miss Tina Turner
he also played for other famous people before he went his own way
Check out their song "Where Did Our Love Go" , especially the version from the TAMI show in 1964 , you will love everything.
Kim Wilde did a cover of this in 1986, putting a very 80's twist on the song. And the music video is straight FIRE.
You guys should check out their song - My Whole World is empty Without You ( Official Video).
Motown music is my all time favorite! This is a great rabbit hole to dive into 🩷
The description of the sound and feel of the song you gave was exactly what the Motown sound was all about, pop, soul, musicianship, artistry that was Motown!
Btw the person singing along with Diana Ross when they say "Set me free why don't you babe" Is Florence Ballard she was told to sing along with Diana because Diana had trouble keeping up the pace in the song.
It’s MOTOWN very deep rabbit hole
60s Motown music!
