The Supremes - I want to hold your hand

[bfor42]

Fat, my ass! Florence was the cutest of the three!



[Raikaage]

The Supremes were awesome. This is a neat cover.

[SenorZorrozzz]

They miss their cue in the opening! The music is terrible! It sounds like a garage recording! The vocals are horrible-no harmonies? Sounds like they are using one, old mic.

[geeknproud321]

@SenorZorrozzz Well this was recorded in the 60s and the Supremes are famously shown singing through one mic, so it's not like your exaggerating really. One old mic. I would consider a mic from the 60s old.

[PERROMALDO]

I like the Supremes but this is not good at all. Guitar intro is really boring, the drummer was playing some other song, and the girls didn´t even try to hit the high note in "Hand". I think they´re soo talented, but this is the type of song you make it better or you just don´t make a cover of it. Original song turned the world upside down. This cover is barely aceptable.

[ramona2400]

Flo is heard as doing or sharing the lead with Ross on this one - The key appears to have arranged for Flo's voice to carry this song - Florence Ballard under Motown's direction could have been a great solo star and recording artist and there within lies the true and major problem that ruined the orginal Supremes. Listen to Flo LEAD here.

[1559godhead]

This has got a real swing to it. The best cover that I´ve heard the supremes do. Also, great to hear them singing in unison.

[coolsweetgroovy]

Also waaay better than The Beatles because Diane and company aren't singing about getting high

[PERROMALDO]

@coolsweetgroovy Yours is by far the worst comment ever in youtube. 

[coolsweetgroovy]

@PERROMALDO It's The truth The Beatles sing about getting high and Diane and Company sing about a love they can't hide

[PERROMALDO]

@coolsweetgroovy 1) Who said that? 2) They started using marihuana after this song was released 3) They´re singing the exact same lyrics. How the hell is the song quality affected by the meaning of the singer´s interpretation. 4) They say "I can´t hide" too and the song is about "holding your hand". You´re nonsense.

[coolsweetgroovy]

@PERROMALDO I've heard The Beatles version and they clearly sing about their love making them high and Diane and The Supremes sing that it's a love they can't hide

[PERROMALDO]

@coolsweetgroovy Supremes are covering The Beatles. So whatever they´re singing they´re talking about the sa thing..

[coolsweetgroovy]

@PERROMALDO Sorry but The Beatles version it just souds like(to me) that they're singing about getting high off love while Diane, Flo, and Mary sing it better because you can tell what they're singing

[gazuaman]

May be one of the best covers of this fab song... although I was never fun of the original...

[knallbirne3000]

THATS wut I call "Hot Choclate !

[gisaac2157]

I love this!

[mnsmiley99]

they did a great job with this cover :)

[kennyfame]

ok

[coolsweetgroovy]

Anyone notice Cindy Birdsong lookslike like a younger version of Flo?

[coolsweetgroovy]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the Beatles Diana Ross little known fact is actually a big Beach Boys fan

[coolsweetgroovy]

@stormcats2 No I'm not

[coolsweetgroovy]

@stormcats2 The Supremes are much better singers The Beatles the only one with the good voice was Paul who's still a fine brotha

[stormcats2]

@coolsweetgroovy  then why do they cross the beat on the intro, and generally sing flat behind the main vocal? turn it up LOUD and dont look at it

[coolsweetgroovy]

@stormcats2 you don't need to bite my head off

[stormcats2]

@coolsweetgroovy my apologies coolsweetgroovy.. love the supremes love the beatles too 2 awesome music houses you have a great day (-:

[coolsweetgroovy]

@stormcats2 that's ok

[mysg4ever]

I never knew these covers existed. I think its great. 

[roctb333]

I LOVE the Supremes. Jonathon, who was the founder/soprano? Tho, I guess I'll have to look it up since you probably won't answer after 2 yrs. I still wanna hold your hand. I wanna hold your hand.

[722erodz]

great version : ]

[khalidshafishaikh]

Better than Beatles !!!

[722erodz]

well done : ]

[missohio83]

I never knew they covered this! I like it!

[vixitrixalina]

i LOVE these covers of the Beatles! theyre excellent! LIKE! x

[yeksirf]

Thank You so much. The pictures you show are amazing. Do you see orion's belt of the three stars? The galaxy is on orion's belt. It's the way the pyrhamids are aranged. The black whole is where your soul cums, It's the feeling. I feel like I am being cradled by my galactic mother of my soul. That's why many people like them==they just are,t conscious of this , but it is the feeling from the unconscious. Thank you for all your videos. They are clearly the work of a higher power.

[Zebred2001]

@afghanboyqeas Check out Flo's "Love Ain't Love". It's a great song.

[187Susi]

das waren noch zeiten,,,, *schnief*

[Blankmay]

wow I really love them.

[Rocko671]

Great cover.

[shnen2]

The guitars a bit out of time but good singing.

[vxenon67]

i want to hear destiny's child sing I want to hold your hand.

[babyboi1002]

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ThexBeatlesxArexLove]

Please no.

[husseinbaghdad]

only beatles can performe this super good

[DEEDUBB1979]

Don't forget to watch Florence's (Unsung) story on the TVOne channel Sunday June 28th 09

[bertisobe]

Great !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[phddddd]

This really sucks. Diana Ross, no way, man.

[broke2471]

at 1:11 in that pic diana looks as though she's vendictive and is plotting...

[666StephanRavelle666]

She probably was............

[himycatsdead]

I have never seen this album and it may be due to the fact that by the time it came out the Brit Invasion was in full swing and it just got lost under all those actual Beatle albums...................

[stawberry19919]

They definetly had Flo stand back in this one. You can barely hear her! But this one is great!

Five Stars*****

[xdianarossx]

The Supremes sing this really well.

[Trixisforkidz]

@xdianarossx No they don't. Matter of fact this song is way out of their league. 

[dkfelix]

Taste can never be discussed but you are disgusting!

[Viznel137]

This is pretty good!I guess the Supremes did a LOT of beatles tunes,Huh?

[whitney2whoopi]

Love all the pictures, Diana Ross is the best.

[tummielvr]

The Supremes as a whole are the best

[JonathanLGardner]

Great video, but there are WAY TOOO much pictures with Cindy Birdsong in them, who didn't replace founder and soprano of the group until 1967. Cindy is NOT on this recording at all, but Florence is, so please next time use pics relevant to the people in them, but still a great post =D

[BAREBACKER]

i like the supremes doing things like this, all 3 on leads after all there were originally 3 lead vocalists not just 1

[JonathanLGardner]

True, I agree. If you listen to the Meet The Supremes album then listen to the Reflections, there is such a big difference, even if you take away the different periods in music and writing material, but the very fact that, the 'GROUP' feeling was fading

[Branner]

Diana, Mary and Flo--and it sounds like they are standing around one mike and the band is playing at the same time.

[Individuell83]

if you have the right track you notice that the voice is right and the instrumentals are left

[noname2342002]

is this diana mary and flo or cindy

[Individuell83]

Noo it's flo
