Wow... this is great to see (hear) this recording. I have 6 original glossy black & White photos of Barrett Strong. It was his main promotional photo. This photo was taken by my dad... Chuck Daugherty. He also took other pictures of Motown Artists for Berry Gordy. On the photo at the bottom is says "Barrett Strong.............. Personal Management, Berry Gordy, Jr. Do you think these original pictures are worth anything?
@roosevelthighschool Stinking Government, pondering into everyone's business on how much money I made last years. Thanks to them, almost nothing, cause I have had a hard time finding work.
I would say this has already been mentioned here but I'm not reading through all the comments.....an awesome hard rocking cover of this is done by the band Great White....just search Great White-Money live at The Ritz 1988. I'll be honest I never heard of Barret Strong and Great White's cover brought me to the original here......I like it, I like the "old" music....I love alot of good rock music from this time right up to the late 80s, early 90s
@TheLivelife33 someone using his youtube account to call "loser" someone else who makes a joke about a situation in his country and is not miserable for not finding a job, sounds like a biggest loser to me. Hope you understand my poor english. ciao bello
Remember how easy it was to earn points on lockers? well this is easier and instead of "prizes" you earn cash, the more points earn, the more money u make and you can cash out EVERY day not just once a month. Watch this youtube video watch?v=gQyt6UR8Ro4
I dedicate this to youtube, bcuz as a partner I would hate to leave youtube when you got a hit show on your hands and you know how hard it is to get hit shows on this site.
Yep I don't disagree, I was looking for this song awhile then I hard Bealtes sang it, but it didn't sound right and then someone say this guy original was the best. thus I sought found and totally agree, this was the version I was looking for in first place :-D
Personally I love the Beatles, particularly Lennon (before he climbed up his own arse with or even without Yoko). However, there were some types of music they really never got a true feel for, however hard they tried, and one of these was Motown.
I personally didn't like the Beatles cover =/ or I'm just so use to and in love with the original. The Beatles lacked that "oomph", that "Motown sound" that I love; same for the other remakes
"I feel sorry for you because your uneducated and probably get beaten by your parents."
To appear "educated" you should have written "you're" or "you are" uneducated, and not "your" uneducated....One is a contraction, the other implies ownership. Man I love irony.
i am 15 and i hate it when people with my age or younger come to a song and say they love for thumbs up, like i do like this song and i only like the original not the remakes
@GamerMovieMaker7 I am totally with u on that 9 times out of 10 I only like Original songs remakes just kind of kill the original groove for me but that also pertains to people too for example I can't get into Lady Gags Alot becuz I loved Madonna and Madonna was an original also I couldn't get into Ciarra forreal because Aaliyah was the original!
Sure don't music like they used to...I mean, there's still good stuff being made today, but there's something authentic about the Motown and Blues of the 50's and 60's.
this is the ONLY version ive heard, original & best. head & shoulders above the rest...& im a Brit =) can anyone tell me what movie im trying to remember while listening? its got me by the banana brain.
No matter what, there's always that stupid weirdo who dislikes this as an experiment or some crap. Do they even know that they're giving some dumb fake opinion that pisses people off? Don't be an idiot. THE MORE YOU KNOW! =)
First of all ya'll had me going to the Beatle's version really expecting it to be better and I was disappointed and everybody who said it is better should be slapped!!! Just becuz you guys are Beatles fans ya'll ain't gotta lie!!! But you know what I just think that your ears are not keen to soul so nevermind I don't wanna slap ya'll anymore... sorry :(
Not everything the Beatles did was always the best..... Strong's version is THE BEST. The Brits can't do MOTOWN better than Motown. Elton John's version of "Lucy In The Sky" was better than the Beatles version.
Considering that The Beatles were influenced by this song, it would be best to say that they wanted to pay their respects to Strong. So, you cannot really compare it to The Beatles, because they would agree with you: You cannot beat the original. Still, even though this song has been done hundreds of times now, theirs and Strong's version are the only one's worth listening to. So, stop comparing them already!!!
@BLACKPUSSYPUNISHER is there anything to make you not come back,or at least change your ridiculous screen name? If you are older than 14 you should be ashamed of yourself.
@TheDJGrandPa Makes no sense at all. most music theory and compostion came from classical music. from Europe, that many black musicians still use and read. So don't give me that mess about old music coming from black people. Music came from every place on the globe. from every culture and race. Rock and Roll is a combination of numerous forms that somehow got melded together. You can hear elements of country, blues, southern gospel, folk, even classical and jazz combined.
@patrick9648 Uhm... so you're thinking I'm saying what I thought you were saying...? Soo... we have the same opinions then. I thought you said "almost all old music is made by black people"... which you did... :|
