The Blossoms and Darlene Love get cudos for all the great cover songs that they copied over the years by other artists. Some are quite impressive; however, not in case. This song was written and produced for the legendary SUPREMES. Many others have covered this song. Whoever sings it only pays homage to the magical recording by Flo, Mary, and Diane. I don't mean to take anything away from Darlene; however, this is now and always will be a SUPREMES song!
Miss owns all those songs because she made them so personal. The way she gets more and more intense as the music swells. It's brilliant pop singing. The way only Diana Ross can do.
One of the most underrated singers in Pop music and Rock and Roll History. What is truly tragic is a lot of the hits she helped to create, she was never given credit nor royalties. Glad to hear she finally made it into the Rock N Roll Hall Fame 2011.
@geebee444 You say that like Diana heard this and said "Hey I think I'll record it and screw the Blossoms". In those days everybody recorded everyones songs and sometimes the remakes were bigger than the orginals. BUT not in this case. This is actually a Supremes song first and foremost written and CONCEIVED Holland Dozier Holland FOR the Supremes. Your opinons on Ms. Ross aside how could she be thieving by this account when this song was written for her and her group???
@oceanbound222 I beg to differ!!!!!! ONLY The Supremes can sing this song. The Supremes own it vocally. Wasn't Diane one of them???????????? Iremember Flo and Mary.............I think that Diane might have been the third one.........not sure, though!
@junieclay The Blossoms really were the best at what they did, love these girls, however as I am a huge Supremes fan I am not going to compare this song as they are both great versions. xxx

As much as I like Darlene Love, she sounds so blah compared to Diana. Nothing interesting or unique
jilhal24 5 months ago
Her voice is better than Diana's but not as unique or pop oriented. The background singers are as good as the Supremes though

Wow, these girls really sang this song.....and yes, they could have given the Supremes a run for their money.

They sang backing vocals on Shelley Fabares's "Johnny Angel". Fabares was "intimidated" by them for good reason!
