@drumsticksNnunchakus Very true. I think someone needs to go and re-release all the albums they ever played on and include their names so at least their families can reap some of the royalties the actual musicians never got to have.
My favorite voice in the temptations was either Eddie, Paul or David or was it Melvin, I loved them all including Otis with that bridge harmonizing voice . If we came up with another male quintet like the Temptations they would own the music world,
paul was a very talented man..its too bad drinking got the best of him. just because drinking is legal dont make it ok its just as poisonous as any drug. they are easy to start but hard to quit. you might think you have a handlel on it, but before you know it it has a handle on YOU....
This is the first Tempts song I remember from my childhood. The message is as strong as it was then. Sweet soul music, baby. Paul was fabulous but troubled and died way too soon. Ain't nobody like the Tempting Temptations...no replacement necessary. They're so bad (as in good) they named a dance after them. Raise your hand if you know how to do the Temptation Walk. un ga wa! My people know....Steppin'
omg i am 22 and my father got me hooked on this type of music since i was like 6 or 7...i remember hearing this song on the motown 40 special b4 the movie came out, then he bought me the emperors of soul box set...I love the movie but some details are false but i will still watch it everytime i get a chance....I love the Temps.

i know must otis must hear stuff like this, think back, and cry. he outlived all his members and his best friend melvin. he lost his son, mom, best friend, and group members.
the temptations, is my tru group. for as far as i can remember. commin up as a , child and as well into, teen age yrs and adult -hood!!!! thanks 4 postin ~~~~ and i got dis foreal.
whoever owns the rights to this song, should put it back out there! Republish it. Intact. Since there's no music like this anymore....I say.....do a "I Love Lucy" re-run of our classic music! Put it on the radio!
I was 7 yrs living in Compton, Ca. when this beautiful song came out. A Mexican boy going to school, listening to KRLA radio, just loving the real R&B "Soul" music. My two young children love the Temptations, Four Tops, Freddie Scott, Fred Townsend. As for the 9 that dislike the song, that is alright. If it does not touch your heart & bring a deep emotions to your heart, well you are missing a beautiful emotion.Listen, close your eyes, feel the words! An American Soldier.Be blessed.
Everyone has their favorite TEMPT,but besides the best dancer,i feel Paul was the heart and soul of the TEMPTS.You had 5 ultra talented individuals put together to make one masterpiece of a group.TIMELESS
Beautiful video, I saw them live in SF at the Cow Palace in 66. I was n high school then, been a fan since. Saw them again in Sacramento in 2003 all different members of course but still had the flair. Is their one original still performing with the "Temptations" original group...
@blinko7777 What a night you were so lucky to enjoy. I was 6y/o in 66 but came from a bi-racial family and my uncle had a band that did all this stuff including James Brown's songs. They were good for playing clubs around town and was on a local tv music show. All these songs bring back some wonderful memories for me, I'm sure you know what I mean. My brother worked at the Desert Inn in Vegas-1999 and Otis and 4 others played there. I here their still playing and sound tight as ever.
@365degrees I got to see the Four Tops too in SF. Sat right in front in a tiny little bar. Me and Jeff MCcan and two blonds. Loool They sang to our girlfriends all night. Biggest thrill ever. We were the only white people in the crowd. Jeff Mccan gave the guy at the door a 100.00 bill and we went to the front. My friend Jeff was rich at the time, we were only 18. Good Days.
I just love the picture at 1:12 where Paul Williams is holding Florence Ballard's hand and Mary Wilson is right in front. In the background, Melvin Franklin has his eye on Mary Wilson and David Ruffin appears to be laughing behind his hand. To see David laughing behind his hand makes him seem so young and happy at that moment in time. The "Classic Five" was the BEST of the Temptations.
in 2000,I was 35,dating a 23 year old female,she insisted we rent the biopic movie,cause it was her fave(she grew up in detroit)the next day i BOUGHT the movie and the temptations greatest hits double cd:)
@tlover62...I hear you. The original group was the greatest...Ruff, Paul, Eddie,Melvin and Otis. After that it was all down hill. I just saw the"New Temptations" at the Hard Rock, Hollywood last week, featuring Dennis Edwards...What a disaster...I left the show early. They need to stop before they do any more damage to such an illustrious group.
Great video. Now this is real music. I truely believe I was born in the wrong era cause this type of music touches my soul more than anything of my time. Thx so much for this post!!!!
I just can't get over the voice of this guy.......gives me goose bumps . Absolutly amazing. It is really a shame you don't hear very much about him when they talk about MOTOWN greats. He could sing happy birthday or OLD McDONALD and make it a damn near religious experiance
@Clearity09 Hi Clearity09. I say this because, when I read Otis Williams' book, it seems that there were contrasts regarding the Paul described in the book, and the portrait of him in the movie - e.g, in the movie, Paul was seen as craving adulation, as opposed to Al Bryant. In the book, Otis Williams described Paul as the opposite. Also, Paul did not crave 2 remain in the group. As he got sicker, he encouraged them to go on w/o him. The movie was good, though.
i wanna love i can, see!! and feel and if not i really , can do!WITH-OUT FOREAL THOU~~~`cause babythats all that matter to me ,yeah yeah actions speaks !!lounder than words and the, kisses that make me wanna melt!!!~~~~foreal thou! thats the only, kind that means tooo! to me
pauls my favorite temptation i dont know why if its cause of how they portrayed him in the movie or just cause his spirit is easily felt through his voice in every song he lead the temps in gotta love it !!!!!!!!! TEMPTATIONS FOR EVER !
"The Temptations" the movie revealed how great there struggles were before gainin the success they should've had from the beginnin... I can't believe this one wasn't a hit... what more could people ask for from these legends??? RIP Paul Williams.
@optimistaurus I am far from a 'chin stroker'' but, there may be some confusion over this because it was issued as a 'B' side in England (TMG 633b) with the 'A' side belng '(Loneliness Made Me Realise) It's You That I Need (TMG 633a) sung by David Ruffin. I know because I bought it in 1967.
P.S. David Ruffin had the voice of an angel anything he sang was pure magic, what a loss. Del. @ Oxford Soul Club.
@daddydelboy Hey daddyboy thats The Great Paul Williams Leading that song, not David Ruffin. David wasnt in the group then. And the song was a hit in Detroit. About 1963. Thanks!
Otis Williams always managed to get good replacements to carry on the legacy of the Temptations. However, those replacements will never recapture the MAGIC that the original--Paul, David, Eddie and Melvin had. Along with Otis, THOSE WERE THE TEMPTATIONS.

@tlover1062 iagree! the greatest line up, and YOU can`t replace the magic these guys created! a little bit like the drifters era with ben. e king on lead.
They had already sung background sessions for Gordy when he and his first wife were stating out on Calvert Ave in Detroit in an apartment. He knew them and they were not Bobby-soxer, wide eyed teens looking up to Gordy like some big shot. He was just stating out then too.
But that talent show church was real: ST, STEPHENS CHURCH, on the near northwest side. That was a major talent source for a decade.
i knew there was a lot of fiction in it (and stuff that was left out) , but where'd you get all that info? i'm just wondering cuz i've always been a pretty big fan of the temptations

"The Temptations" the movie revealed how great there struggles were before gainin the success they should've had from the beginnin... I can't believe this one wasn't a hit... what more could people ask for from these legends??? RIP Paul Williams.

@optimistaurus I am far from a 'chin stroker'' but, there may be some confusion over this because it was issued as a 'B' side in England (TMG 633b) with the 'A' side belng '(Loneliness Made Me Realise) It's You That I Need (TMG 633a) sung by David Ruffin. I know because I bought it in 1967.
P.S. David Ruffin had the voice of an angel anything he sang was pure magic, what a loss. Del. @ Oxford Soul Club.

@daddydelboy Hey daddyboy thats The Great Paul Williams Leading that song, not David Ruffin. David wasnt in the group then. And the song was a hit in Detroit. About 1963. Thanks!

Otis Williams always managed to get good replacements to carry on the legacy of the Temptations. However, those replacements will never recapture the MAGIC that the original--Paul, David, Eddie and Melvin had. Along with Otis, THOSE WERE THE TEMPTATIONS.

@tlover1062 iagree! the greatest line up, and YOU can`t replace the magic these guys created! a little bit like the drifters era with ben. e king on lead.

The TV Movie was almost all fiction.
They had already sung background sessions for Gordy when he and his first wife were stating out on Calvert Ave in Detroit in an apartment. He knew them and they were not Bobby-soxer, wide eyed teens looking up to Gordy like some big shot. He was just stating out then too.
But that talent show church was real: ST, STEPHENS CHURCH, on the near northwest side. That was a major talent source for a decade.

Read Otis Williams book "The Temptations". It 's a good read and much more accurate than the movie. You can purchase the book from Amazon.
