The Delfonics - You've Been Untrue

The first single by this great Philly group. Recorded in 1966 along with 'He Don't Really Love You', this tune was released on Cameo in early 1967, and was no more than a regional hit. It did, however bring the Delfonics and Thom Bell together for what would become one of the most successful group/ producer combinations ever. On Pookie's 'This should have been a bigger hit' list.

This is the real TSOP! Listening to "He Don't Really Love You" and "You've Been Untrue" is like sitting in a steam bath being showered with ice crystals!

I agree that "Untrue" and "He Don't Really Love You", along with "I Gave To You" are the Best of the Delfonics!!

Even though this song is about a female, how many man need to relate to this song,too. When a women gets fed up and continues to warn her man that his well is running dry, why can't he listen? When it's over, as Teddy says "The Whole Town's Laughing At You, Silly Fool How'd You Lose Such A Good Thing".
