Love this track!!! Just bought "Standing in the Shadows of Motown" [Deluxe Edition] by Funk Brothers but this isn't on it. Would also like "Baby Love" any ideas? Help!
Isn't it wonderful to hear the legendary Supremes WITHOUT Diane? They should should have released this version in 1966..........it would have probably still been a hit WITHOUT Diane. That's why I have always said the the legend of The Supremes is greater than the sum of its parts. Diane, along with Mary, Flo, The Funk Brothers, and holland/Dozier/Holland were all JUST parts!!!
Just as Diane's voice was overdubbed on such recordings as "You Keep Me Hangin' on," Mary and Flo's voices were overdubbed on ocassion as well. That's the beauty of the recording studio........you can do creative things!
I'm asking myself why anybody here's discussing about Diana, Mary and Florence. I thought this music was about the Funk Brothers.
I would rather say that anybody could have sung this song, it would've been a hit anyway, just as it is with all the other motown hits, it's all about the funk brothers.
oceanbound222 stooges? STOOGES!? i spit on your comment, florence and Mary didn't sleep with there boss so they were pushed in to the background while that slut (and your lover) diana ross gave the best bj's to berry that she got pushed and pushed forward.
This is a beautiful thing you posted with the backing track and the amazing bass playing and the fantastic backing vocals. But listen, DREAMGIRLS was not "reality" -- Diana Ross was a great, great singer and you do her a disservice to mock her and make her seem like she didn't deserve her success. She's as much the "spirit of the Supremes" as anyone else.
Great post Sanfordway. I love Mary Wilson and Florence Ballad, the Supremes, the Funk Bros. and Detroit! If you have more, would love to hear these gems!!!! Thanks.
Love The Funk Brothers
Could listen to this allllllllllllllllllllll daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay Longgggggggggggggggg!

Why do you think so? What do you have against Diana? I think she's great like all other Supremes and the Funk Brothers.

Beautiful! This beats the Phil Collins version by a mile! I'd rather hear the Funk Bros, and Flo and Mary's backing vocals than his 'rendition'.
Can you post "Stop In The Name Of Love", oh pretty please?

There are methods for acquiring the soundtrack from the clip, but YouTube would rather we didn't do such things. Copyrights and all, you know.

It's all about the right song for the right voices at the right time.
But I do agree that the Funk Bros totally rock ... but I don't think I would have had a hit if I were singing it ... to be honest with you.
