the supremes where did our love go

[pissedoff7771]

i have a question every time i ask a question lam insulted for not knowing the answer.i do not need that today.why is it it takes some singers or musicans so long to get into the rock and roll hall of fame and some people have only been out there only a few years and boom they are in.is it how many records they sell or something else?

[teresacuesta]

great sense of rhythm!!!!

[zanzibar79]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm... black chicks. 

[LivLuvLaf716]

I luv this song!

[missgoth1997]

i love this song it is so calming

[SuperGraystoke]

the ultimate female and biggest selling in the history of music,no other comes close to what diana ross and the supremes acheived.

[tofelt]

i saw it with my OWN eyes. when this song came on the radio, it made you STOP, mesmerized, with your eyes closed, until the DJ took it off. what SONG today makes you want to do that?

[6ermany]

@tofelt a song from the 20th century hahaha

[gospelsingerphyllis]

my favorite group, love em

[Michael93406]

They were that one in a trillion combination. Amazing.

[SarahMeyers1000]

i love this song:)

[TheGoodgoddamn]

As a side note, Diana had some long, sexy arms, and a great voice. But the real message is that James Jamerson wrote the bass line to this sublime song. And more people should realize the contribution that the funk brothers made to popular music all over the world. Look them up!

[djw80158]

Wow, Diana was hella sexy...

[larrylevinson]

Love the hair



[dominguezsofia11]

I love this song! This is music!

[wozniacki15]

the only girl group i have seen that has come close to the supremes and all those vocal groups back in the 50s and 60s is en vogue. they had the beauty class and talent just like the supremes. and their harmonies...dnt get me started so pure!!!

[JustSayHeeyy]

1964: songs about innocence and love

2011: sex drugs drinking and cursing.... i want time travel :(

[tallorder9]

Saw Diana Ross at Caesars in Vegas. She's great.

[Robbery98NS]

the epitome of class,good taste and sexiness allput together. i could sit and watch these ladies all day long. and the voices are just beautiful. female singers nowadays dont care about singing. they only care about dancing and choreography and the vocals are secondary.thats why the music is disposable. no auto-tune with the supremes (although they did their share of lip-synching), just 3 talented a beautiful women singing the most beautiful music.the best girl-group of all time.

[TheGabbydeb]

@Robbery98NS They were lip synching to their own songs though!

[Azishome]

@TheGabbydeb Lip synching was very commong practice in those days of television. Sound fidelity was not very good during live performances, so they spun the record and the talent did their thing. Don't judge yesterday's broadcast performance standards by today's. They're not the same thing at all.

[wainblatrobert]

I wish this had more power to it....but I guess the dumb white people at the time couldn't appreciate it soulful performances

[leinati95]

i swear i love the little dance moves they do :)

[Elisa201199]

i love this song so i made my own cover of it check it out on video responses 'Elisa Where did our love go' @ Elisa201199

[0ldsk00lr]

i was on my way to my grandpa's work and i heard this song. and right away i fell in love with it

[MalaysianMonster]

[addiiekuv]

Music with meaning!

[zappasaurus]

Nearly 50 years ago, and these chicks still kick axe.

I hope they are proud of this because it's ... phenomenal. I still remember my mom singing this to me & dancing around in our living room. She was from Detroit and Motown just connected her with home.

[TarasTooCoolXD]

My fingers sent me here.

[blues917]

[zappasaurus]

[redhotsuperfan1]

@pedrocks123 low blow man

[pedrocks123]

@redhotsuperfan1 Not really. If you believe shows like the X Factor are a good thing, you need your head tested.

[duskwriter]

1:50 Diana's legendary eye popping!

[duskwriter]

Flo looks like it was one of her drunk performances\

[roryboytube]

watching Florence Ballards moves (in the middle) i can see where Amy Winehouse researched her style.

[georgiaboi420]

@roryboytube Florence is on the left, Mary in the Middle and Diana is on the right.

[LisaNicoleLopes]

@roryboytube Thats Mary Wilson In The Middle Florence Is On The Left

And I hear it once again: the orginal is almost alyways the better version!

[ryette]

A childhood of spending afterschool with my grandma sent me here. Love Diana Ross! <3  I get such a happy feeling listening to their music.

[sisyphus650]

I'm a true Gen Xer born in the early 70s, but I love classic Motown songs.

[Pyerpy93]

[JR2O1OJR]

@ESEBEI53 shut up. you cant even compare the supremes to destinys child. supremes are a class act, destinys child are a crass act.

[ESEBEI53]

[TheBlueb0ttle]

Poor old Florence ..dumped by the bitch and died in poverty........FO

[ambergriffie]

Excellent quality.



[gooboo1000]

THE GREAT THING ABOUT THEM WAS THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANYONE TO COPY FROM LIKE MANY OF TODAY'S "ARTISTS." THEY SET THE PRECEDENT. AND BOY, DID THEY EVER!!!!

[nero314100]

@gooboo1000 are you kidding? do you have any knowledge of the 60's? There three big music writing buildings--tin pan alley, the brill building, and Motown. They all followed strict formulas that were based on what worked. These ladies were associated with Motown. They were successful because they "sounded white" and therefore white audiences did not perceive a threat, so they were successful. They did not set the precedent, they followed the model.

[paulpaid]

@nero314100 They "sounded white"? LOLOL..that's the first I've heard that one. I did hear about whites trying to tell their kids, who were so obsessed with the new Motown sound, Not to listen to that N***** music. Same deal with acts like Chuck Berry and Fats Domino. But sounding white? Nah..You've got a hard sell trying to say they didn"t set the precedent. They where successful because Holland Dozier Holland wrote kick-ass melodies and Berry Capitalized on the Original super girlgroup image.

[nero314100]

@paulpaid I'm not just pulling this out of my ass dude, I've taken a class on this. Motown was run by mostly black people and they relized that white america had a much larger disposable income than black america, so they tried to make their singers appealing to white audiences. Look at the supremes, they look nice, high pitched soft voices, and when you see an audience they're mostly white. Fats domino--suit, smiling, white audience. Etc, etc.

[gooboo1000]

@nero314100  I agree with you, their sound was universally appealing hence their astounding success. They did follow a strict formula geniusly geared by Berry Gordy and his family, however, they were naturally gifted in the fact that they were universally appealing or as you put it, sounded "white". Their chemistry and talent made them who they were. They proudly set the precedent for the groups of "color" that came after them.

[nero314100]

@gooboo1000 I'm not saying they weren't naturally talanted, I'm saying they were hired by Motown because of the quality of their voice since Motown was gearing for white america's wallets. As I said before, when they have an audience, quite a large portion of the audience was white whereas, on the flip side, at a concert for someone like James Brown with "unprofessional" attire and lyrics promoting the African American ethnicity (eg: say it loud, im black and proud) the audience is mostly black

[Deathprf88]

@nero314100 i dont understand I am a mexican american and i love them, was this somehow accidently geared towards my culture too???

[nero314100]

@Deathprf88 I'm not saying JUST white people liked them. Motown realized that white america had a much larger disposable income than black america and so they made their groups appealing to white audiences to reel in as much income as possible--they were trying to be a profitable business. Mexican americans were a very small minority at the time with little to none disposable income, so businesses typically did not try to gear their products to mexican americans.

[JohnBeast824]

Damn they had HD cameras back then lol

[kathleenbensimon]

Raw talent, none of that techno-altered rubbish of today.. Ohh, lovely!

[gnarkillkicksass]

23 year old Aussie guy here and I love the supremes. Shows like Idol, X Factor etc are all Karaoke competitions. Real talent only comes around very rarely now days, which is why watching this is just so special.

[cristalbay]

1:50 made me laugh!

[streetender1878]

@StatenIzzy1 you obviously dont know what a typo is? its an accidental spelling mistake, not an excuse for a moron like you to get lots of words wrong! explain "faget" you fucking idiot. you cant even spell. your clever comment about my name, might have worked, but only if you had read it right. heres a clue, just one t in streetender.

[StatenIzzy1]

@streetender1878 your seriously geting at me because i mispelled a dirogatory word..fagget isnt a word that is written a lot who the fuck cares how i spelled it are you fucking kidding me..damn youtube is full of annoying motherfuckers..oh and since when has "lots" been a word?

[streetender1878]

@StatenIzzy1 that would be derogatory and faggot! i see that you are 25 yrs old. so this must be a big year for you, now that your age caught up with your IQ! i dont see anyhting wrong with the word or the use of "lots" either.

[StatenIzzy1]

@streetender1878 you spelled anything wrong...sorry i dont know what anyhting means???cant understand the rest of your paragraph...lmao your a loser homie...come to staten island youll get your shit rocked fucking fagget

[streetender1878]

@StatenIzzy1 you amuse me. "anyhting"? "fagget"? are you even trying? by the way, thanks for the invite but I heard staten island was New Yorks asshole. so why would i want to go there?

[replyandyousuckballs]

@StatenIzzy1 Erm...you wrote the word "lot", and then asked since when has "lots" been a word?.....O.O
