This is the Marvin Berry & The Starlighters version. The version everyone thinks is the temptations is the penguins. The acapella was just in the temptations movie, and that wasn't the temptations. It was a shadow band for the movie. This version from back to the future is a fictional character (portrayed as chuck berry's cousin) known as Marvin Berry. The starlighters were a real band, but the name in this case is just a coincidence.
Thumbs up if you got here because of that episode of Family guy where Peter goes back in time to seduce Lois once again at a bal and snags her from Quagmire.
This sounds very cliche, but they don't make music like this anymore! :( How did guys go from singing so sweetly and romantically about women... to rapping about how they're all sluts and hoes and their only purpose is to be f**ked. Not that women are completely innocent either... sigh :( I would've rather existed back in those days I think.
@ilovemylilboy if you know anything about the "soul and spirit" and the "intelligence of the UNIVERSE" then you would know that YOU DID EXHIST in those days... :) and you will ALWAYS EXHIST in the future....
@ultimatumborda LOL!!! I love that movie:) "Hey Chuck, Chuck, this is your cousing Marvin, Marvin Berry. You know that new sound you've been looking for? Well, here it is!"
It sucks so much that they had to produce a "white" sound. Everyone knows they dont really sound like this. The forced proper pronunciation is a bit uncomfortable in their early work though this is a great, great classic. Artists today should feel humble & privileged in the fact that they dont need to be intimated into sounding like something theyre not...but most of them go back to these roots of being fake. Singers & songwriters now like then think its "in" to be something youre not. Idk...
@paigenacage Last time I checked it has nothing to do with your race. Since when has being white or black determined how words are pronounced? You fucking idiot.
@AAlford32 If you knew anything about your history then youd know that white singers were very proper in how they sang. Cuz they were really the first people allowed to make public music the rest of the races that followed them were made to sound the same cuz of the racism at the time. Sounding more white would make them more popular. If there was a white voice whites would listen. If they sounded natural & if people knew they were black they wouldnt listen. Im not racist its just true.
@paigenacage Nat King Cole, Ray Charles, The Temptations. They had television back then so no matter how they sound people could see their race. So what you said makes no sense.
@AAlford32 What I said makes a lot of sense. If they would have sounded differently the public (white) would have shunned them. Pushed them away for sounding different. Because they were black they had to try harder to get everyone to like them. Sounding white helped them to gain that white audience. At the time the whites were the ones who made all the decisions. If they didnt like them many black groups would not have made it. What I say is true & I dont care if you dont like it. Dont read it.
DOES THEIR HAVE TO BE SOMETHING COMPLETELY ZANY ON EVERY FUCKING YOUTUBE COMMENT SECTION? THIS IS THE TEMPTATIONS!! jesus christ whats wrong with our generation
change, it's the only constant. Just because something is "in" during one period doesn't mean it will stay that way. Also, your preferences are your own, nothing's wrong with our generation, just diverging tastes. Really...
@yellOStuntguy ofcourse change is a constant factor of life, but just because everything is going to change eventually doesn't mean that everything is okay or that everything bad should just be ignored because it's eventually going to change or fade away. yes everyones preferences are their own, their called opinions and they are shared freely quite often. btw im part of this generation and the world's never been fuller of stupid fucks than it is right now today.
GREAT SCOTT! =0) This sounds like the BACK TO THE FUTURE soundtrack version of the song, the one performed in the film by Marvin Berry & the Starlighters. Meh. No big deal. The film version is just as awesome if not better than the originals from the '50s. Who's with me?
all i remember is when i was growing up my mom used to takes us to the beach and we used to bump this shit all day....i love it...never again will music sound this good
when you know you'd rather listen to this good shiz nit from back in the day compared to this music... youo know most of todays music is not all that great
I love this song and is one of the best songs I've ever heard. I don't care where you've heard it from but go ahead and share where you discovered this magnificent song. Unlike Myrincreu here who cares so much where you hear the song Earth Angel....
I think those guys in the video response You Ask We Sing do a great rendition of this song. Plz thumbs up this so other ppl might check it out. Thanks
Im here because I want thumbs up because I either: A) knew the song before back to the future B) knew the song because of back to the future or C) am here because of family guy.
Who gives a shit when or why youre here just appreciate the good music.
how about thumbs up if you are here because you love 60s music and not because of back to the future or family guy.... or dont thumbs up at all because those types of posts annoy me...
@amstelko2 you are right. the song was written in the 50's but the temptations werent formed until the 1960's. either way i love 50's, 60's and some 70's music.
im only 16, but it reminds me of being little and watching back to the future with my grandparents :')
