[MegaGringoLoko]

No hay nada como los clasicos ;)

[solomonmorris7]

I miss Mary. I wish they would have had a cure for throat cancer back then to save her...and A cure for breast cancer and all cancers .....

[COMING4U]

1964! 1964! Oh how this song takes me back! I only wish that I could really go back to the summer of that year.

[burnley5960]

Absolute class wonderfull

[PetePeterkin]

She actually sounded better here than when she was young on the Shindig video! Always great!

[Wo87pooh]

her daughter, my cousin, has a youtube account singing also.

[jus1starr]

none like that motown sound

[rufus317]

Mary was the first queen of Motow and Motown's very first solo superstar.

[blkpopeye]

She was Goreous wasn't she?

[SuperSunnyboy1]

I hear that! motown girls were acut above1

[MrKeith111054]

all dianna ross didm was shag berry gordy

[kokede]

just discovered her today. what a beautiful voice.

[xluvteddyx33]

Mary Wells is my great great aunt or something like that :) Wow she can sing

[jeffdon4]

the motown sound!

[JEThomTrilogy]

I grew up with Mary Wells during my teen years at Brooklyn's Bushwick High School in the sixties...Rest in peace my favorite singer.

[exxxcccited]

So did i grow up with her and loved her but when did she pass away?

[johnstone2010]

@exxxcccited On July 26th, 1992, because of laryngeal cancer

[jazzforrum]

With music, I discovered. Every day I discover that different combinations of sounds bring me all kinds of positive experiences. Through music, my inner world is rich and is designed only for me. Nobody I do not mind it, and this is particularly valuable today - the sheer volume of advertising, trash, hypocrisy and violence.

[marcelloverdi]

Very Well Expressed Jazzforum

I feel Exactly the Same Way.. but You Said it best

[jazzforrum]

Through music, my life becomes colorful and full of. I wish you all gut from Poland

[vipergurn]

love you rip

[herbrampe]

In the 60's I listened to this album over and over. She was great then and later and for always. Sexiest voice going.

[Koach127]

Her voice reminds me a bit of Marilyn McCoo's. It's a great version! :)

[saturnaspider]

Sounds as sweet as she did when she first sang it back in the 60s.  One of the best female singers that Motown recorded.

[ranmae57]

she sounds a hell of a lot better than diana ross

[csj3rd]

Love you Mary!!!!

[DollyPorterfan]

Love to hear her sing.  Gifted voice. Rest in peace.

[Immortal1000]

R.I.P. Mary Wells

[Chutson353]

I've always thought it was a big mistake for her to leave Motown when she did - Gordy was grooming her to be his "Big Star" and she might have been as big as Diana Ross if she'd stuck with Berry.

[ladyvee7110]

Not necessarily and besides even if she remained, she still wouldn't have gotten the attention Diana Ross received. A lot of great Motown artists fell by the waist side because Mr. Gordy's constant attention on the Supremes more specifically Diana Ross.

[6749er]

The great Mary Wells wlth a great Band.Rocks & Swings just great!

Thanks!

[alexisdstar]

I love this song!

[BilliakaDee]

ahhhhh! The 60s! I loved it then, even though i wasnt alive then......... It was still a great time. And i love Mary Wells!

[deepo7]

[raypay123]

RIP to mary wells

[HectorChankaku]

Great ! Great ! Great! thank you !!!

[NasirJalil211298]

simple but wonderful songs i cant stop listening to this song everytime i go on youtube i give this song a 9

[Jennamber15]

when did she pass on? R.I.P. :[

[timmy841212]

July 26, 1992 at the age of 49.

[71ford]

Even 20 years later she still had a beautiful voice! What a wonderful song.

[tedkay]

She should have never left Motown! big Mistake on her part. she would have probably had so many more classic hit songs!~~

[timmy841212]

I don't know about that, Mary was pretty upset Motown didn't give her royalties for her hit singles plus Motown was now pushing its promotion (or starting to) on the Supremes so I feel if she stayed, yeah, she may have gotten more classic hits (like the Marvelettes did) but she would've eventually left anyways, I feel. She made her mark even BEFORE she released "My Guy".

[adbayobay]

The best Mary Wells miss and Love you,
