I agree that Paul sounded EXCELLENT on this. I can soooo picture David singing on this instead though. And the times where you can tell Paul was kinda holding back (I guess cuz he just wanted to be safe. He is a low baritone after all), I'm sure David would've done his power barks as I'd call em lol. This song works for Paul overall though so I'm with the general consensus on that. And yes, he should've shined man! He kept complaining about it little by little and he never got his chance.

This song is PERFECT evidence that PAUL could hold a candle to DAVID RUFFIN on a lead single!! RUFFIN move over, PAUL WILLIAMS is comin through!!!

@0812820 Having been a singer myself forever, the best way to emote in a song is to push yourself to the limits of your vocal range just as Paul did with this one. Had he sung where he was comfortable the color of the song would have been altered and it would not have had the same feeling.

@0812820 it is perfect for Paul. Beside this song was recorded in the same wekk as Ruffin was fired.

Mr. soulman himself, MR PAUL WILLIAMS.
The key is a bit too high for Paul in this song, it's in a tenor range. They should have either dropped the key or let David or Eddie sang it to be frank.

um Levi of The Four Tops was also a baritone and for the most part the songs he sang was in a tenor range. Paul did an excellent job on this

Paul was one of the all time greats, i wish he would of had more time to shine. I think he also would have been a powerhouse of a solo artist with the likes of Otis Redding and Jackie Wilson etc.
