  • My last name Ruffin and all I could say is the Ruffin's is some bad people....

  • I hate this song. But in a good way.

    Because I can't help but laugh and think of Leon playing (David Ruffin), showing up outta nowhere, taking the mic from Charles Ley (Playing Dennis Edwards) when I hear "I KNOW ya wanna leave me"

    INSTANT CLASSIC.

  • i hate to say this but the temps was gone be nothin without david ruffin to me idk bout yall

  • We are having a fashion/talent show @ work for Xmas. Some of my co-workers and I have decided to portray the Temptations and I couldn't see myself being anyone other than David Ruffin. Such a tragedy that the world lost him. Such a wonderful talent!!

  • the 19 people thatd isliked this are the 19 bigot motherfuckers still alive from that time ha ha :D <3

  • 0:48

  • 18 PEOPLE DIDENT BEG

  • What made you think you could do a better job of the audio -- by screwing it up -- than the original track? Please! Stay away from the audio controls when you're stoned. This is a travesty.

  • I love listening to them but I hate how you did the audio.

  • Dey Were So Damn Bony

  • They r legends <3 I love them!!!

  • @chickenbutt123ish it had to have worked right? no woman can resist the temptations

  • None of The Temptations were ugly. You just have a ugly mind. Like one of their other songs states, ' Beauty is only skin deep". Peace.

  • xXSHANAEXx they didn't hve skinny legs those are skinny pants, like the skinny jeans that's all. Everything repeats it's self

  • THE REAL DAVID RUFFIN IS UGLY NO OFFENSE

  • @lylyiz2fly what does that have to do with there singing?

    who cares if he's ugly he's a damn good singer

  • this is when they had the perfect singers

    to bad david got kicked out then paul then eddie left /:

  • @xTDWPx210x Paul wasnt techincally KICKED out he was sick battling alcoholism. I wouldnt say that was being kicked out they tried to wait til he got better but If they waited any LONGER the temptations wouldnt be around much longer so they had to push on and get someone else. Now david yet he got his ass kicked out lol :)

  • best singer of all times right up there with Marvin Gaye

  • So good

  • SMOOTH and NICE!!!!!!

  • Thanks for posting, Royaltej.

    This is wonderful... and yet so sad.

    The vocals and dance moves are glorious - and live!

    The Temptations paid too high a price for fame, and we have just a little of their handsome brilliance left to admire. Thanks again for sharing!

  • big chill!!!!

  • Truly a Soulfully gifted artist......I kinda like the way Mr. Ruffin gets down to buisness.....Hell of a wy to start a morning.......

  • Just Awesome, This Was Music!!!! Great!!... they sung about loving and needing women and respecting them, not the bam bam thank you mam syndrome of today!! Love it!!!

  • classic five

  • David was a true ACTOR and did it the the word of song.

  • YALL BEGGING ME NOT TO LEAVE U !!!!! AND I REFUSE TO LET U GO !!! DAVID RUFFIN AND THA TEMPTATIONS LOL CLASSIC!!!!!

  • @ricotinez I was trying to come up with some kind of explanation for a person disliking this song, that didn't speak to sexual orientation, underdeveloped genitalia or inbreeding. The 1-and-3 thing sprang to mind. Keep grooving.
