This is one of my faves from this album. Who knew it was Jimmy Webb writing. So haunting , poignant & "adult" (I was a kid when this came out). It's still awesome- listen to that harmony
(1:30), and still touches me- even more now that I'm old & nostalgic. Thanx for posting
I have this album, it was only released in 1965 and my mother bought it for me as one of my Christmas presents. $2.98, $3.98 for sterio was too expensive. That's o.k. I have played this album ever since. I have never heard the sterio version until now, thank you.
this woman makes me cry..i have been crying when i first heard her sing when i was 7yrs old back in 1963..she recorded this with her two best friends..mary and florence..i heard this song and i cried..in was in 1965..i was 9yrs old..yesterday I watched her sing to Oprah.and again..this woman made me Cry at age 55? ..(so did Oprah. I dont blame her at all)..the point is..Diana's voice tugs at the heartstrings..if just take time to listen, and feel the pain in her voice. its amazing.
this song help me get thrugh a few christmas when my mom past a way douring the Hollydays my tree was never the some; or as bright cuz the angle that made my chritmas the lord took her from me!
At 51, I remember bringing this album to school when I was in 2nd grade, along w/other kids bringing their records. One of the older kids (an 8th-grader) who was watching our class while the teacher was at lunch. She absolutely refused to play even 1 song on this album. I was heart-broken, b/c I really wanted to share this album w/my classmates. This was in Catholic school.

The very BEST Christmas song ever written by a lyrical genius.
When I hear the Tempt version featuring Eddie Kendricks wailing vocals, it never fails to
move me to tears.
I love the Supremes version, but The Tempts brought it to a completely higher level.
