The Supremes - Run Run Run (1964)

The title of this song is "Run Run Run" it was recorded back in 1964. It was featured on the "Where Did Our Love Go" album which was released the same year.
It was also released as a single Motown "M 1054" and later in 67 also included on the "Greatest Hits" album on the motown label and on the "Baby Love" album on british label called "sounds superb", from which I actually got this version.
Lead is sung by Diane Ross, background vocals by Florence Ballard and Mary Wilson and the instrumentation by the motown studio band The Funk Brothers
Hope you enjoy :)

Like most of the Motown singles I always liked the mono mix to this one better. It also lasts about 3 to 5 seconds longer than this here stereo mix. I remember a snippet being played on the radio during the spring of 64. It was edged out by Dave Clark Five's "Bits and Pieces". Though I warmed later to the British Invasion, at that time I hated it, except for the Beatles and Dusty. In reality, this song was recorded before "Love Light". "Freedom" was preferred, though.

@tas6010 I prefer the stereo-version of this one I think

but I really like the single/mono version of "you can't hurry love" better then the stereo version

I like how the bass cuts off in the beginning and then comes back in :D

As far as I know, Run Run Run was the "A" side - its even in the Supremes Greatest Hits LP released in 1967. "I'm Giving You Your Freedom" was not on that LP. Logically, that tells me that Run Run Run was the hit.

[Individuell83]

@StreetCornerMemories yes that's true Run Run Run was a small hit for the Supremes before they got famous with Where Did Our Love Go.

And as you said I'm Giving You Your Freedom is not on the Greatest Hits album, but on the Where Did Our Love Go Album

this song is way to cute!

[4lionking]

suppose to be a Phil Spector sound alike.

[srercrcr]

It should have been reissued after Where Did Our Love Go hit big.

It has that same energy

Insane CHUNE!!!!

This was not the original choice for following up "When the Lovelight Starts Shining In His Eyes;" that was "Penny Pincher," recorded three times. I believe "Run Run Run" actually was recorded before "When the Lovelight" was recorded. This indeed was the "A" side of the single and not a strong choice.

One of the Supreme's best songs, yet not that many people know it.

Here's a little trivia this song came to be when Diane asked Berry if they(The Supremes) could cover a Beach Boys song then a heated arguement start between The Supremes and then Berry Gordy then Berry suggested this
