Camp as knickers!! I just love it! Those girls were not afraid to do anything. I wish the studio would release all of their performances in great remastered quality so that their legend can live on forever!!!

Florence seems very uncomfortable here. Mary said on an interview once that Flo just didn't like the fluff. But if you notice at around 4:08 into the performance,she seems to be finally comin' around. To beautiful and died way to soon.

@terrybigteekemp have you read mary's book? it was really hard to talk about alcaholism and manic depression in those days. imagine if it had been revealed in 1967 that florence, one of the great supremes, was bordering on alcoholism and depression. it was more acceptable, though entirely wrong, to say that she was overweight or wanted to leave and start a family.

@royalsoulness diana and mary have both often said that they loved to sing these songs. i think the opposite of what you say is true. they prob. got tired of singing their own songs over and over. mary still says to this day that she loved doing these show tunes.

I like Supremes & though, I know it was the 'in' thing 2 do pop standards in the 60s, I find some of their stuff rather corny. Nothing wrong with diversity but Motown went overboard in pushing this stuff down our throats. We got that they were a black group striving 2 get mainstream success but sometimes, it looked like a chore. I'm sure they were all tired of singing these kinds of songs. Young folks want 2 sing their own songs not all this old timey stuff all the time!

@RedRoosterRoad I don't understand this Flo is fat stuff either. I have never seen a picture or video of Florence being overweight. Maybe our definition of fat and theirs are different. Florence always had a very lovely, voluptuous figure even in her later years. Or as Flo herself said,"I was pretty damned stacked".
-
@SpazChat No she doesn't. What has her weight got to do with this song anyway?
-
They didn't need those male dancers in this skit. They look silly.... like some kind of last minute decision. Flo looks kind of FAT
-
Heh... They're doing the 'Macarena'... :-)

@antoineboi I don't get all the anti-Diana stuff either. It seemed as if she pushed her way, when she was just doing what she was told. These anti Diana people are just people who never understood the mass appeal of her voice and charisma. They don't get it and never will

@best1forward I think that's one of the reasons they became so popular. Not being afraid to sing anythiing means they became more marketable and popular with different age groups and cultures instead of just appealing to one. The other acts at Motown weren't so willing to sing different styles, but then again, perhaps The Supremes were the only act that actually sounded appropriate singing standards and show tunes
this song is just amazing!

jimjeffjeanine you are alway trying to bring flo's memory down but you nor anyone else can destroy her memory,her talent,or our love for miss flo. You can say whatever you want. But her legacy will live on by her kids, her amazing voice,and her music.
