Fender Tremolo all 5 were amazing. They all played such an important part of the group. About 15 years ago I took my the 6 & 4 year old daughters to see the temps and it was amazing. I give credit to Otis and Melvin for keeping things going and I wish Paul could have slayed his demons. Stay safe Fender during this Ball of Confusion.
@DeVante Cooley No you can't. But those four singing with Otis are NOT the Temptations. They are the Imitations. And even then Otis was the original Temp who was the least integral to the group's success.
@DeVante Cooley But David and Dennis sang leads on most of the classic Temptation songs and that's the point. I think people like you overstate Otis' influence on the group, largely because of what was portrayed in that movie, but the movie, which was based on Otis' autobiography, was a bit biased to Otis for obvious reasons. Moreover, the fact that Otis is "the last man standing" may speak to the fact that, unlike Eddie and David, he lived cleaner and in contrast to Melvin and Paul had better fortune with his health, but not to him being instrumental to the group's success.
@DeVante Cooley So the basis of that rationale every impersonator of Elvis Presley can claim to be him? To each its own, but I'm sorry. I will never accept these imposters as the Temptations.
@@lwmson c'mon get over it . Like previously said, nobody lives forever ( I saw temps in concert 2x and David and Eddie when they briefly toured ) and to keep the great memory of the music or any of the other all time greats ( as we might be able to agree, todays music certainly misses the voices, arrangements, and purity of yesterday's music) is special in itself.
I've got sunshine, on a cloudy day When it's cold outside, I've got the month of May (ooh) I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl, my girl, my girl Talkin' 'bout my girl, my girl I've got so much honey, the bees envy me I've got a sweeter song, than the birds in the trees Well, I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl, my girl, my girl Talkin' 'bout my girl, my girl Ooh, ooh Hey-hey-hey, hey-hey-hey Ooh, ooh, yeah I don't need no money (ooh), fortune, or fame I've got all the riches, baby (ooh) one man can claim Well, I guess you'd say What can make me feel this way? My girl, my girl, my girl Talkin' 'bout my girl, my girl (Talkin' 'bout my girl) I've got sunshine on a cloudy day (whoa, whoa) with my girl I've even got the month of May, with my girl (talkin' 'bout my girl) Talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout my girl (ooh) Ooh, my girl (talkin' 'bout my girl) That's all I can talk about is my girl (ooh) Why don't you believe she's all my girl? (Talkin' 'bout my girl)
When David Ruffin recorded this song, he sang it to his 4 year old daughter, Cheryl, who was in the studio sitting on a stool, watching. He ad-libbed "the month of May" in the song, as Cheryl's birthday is in May. ❤
Otis still got the moves 👏🏾. I loved it. Watched it like 10 times tonight lol. The whole group sounds terrific, can't wait to see you again Larry. 0:39 that guy is enjoying it more than anyone hahahaha love it ❤❤❤
💞 Great performance...But I feel so lucky to have lived in the era of listening and watching all of our original.... Temptations...Forever💞xo So many wonderful memories.💕🥰
No one could sing like David Ruffin and this was his song... Smokey probably in retrospect wishes he'd kept this one, but in letting David Ruffin sing it first, he left us a treasure.
@@shaunmcdonough9016 Smokey has always been a songwriter-producer first and a singer second. He was glad to write for other groups in order to spread the influence of Gordy's Motown Records. It also made his Miracles even more influential with their hits and performances, and allowed the Miracles to perform a lot of songs live that others had made into hit records.
Hard to believe the America we see in this video is in the shape it's in now. I see young and old, all nationalities, huge crowd... everyone having a great time. Contrast that to the hating, division, rioting, et al, that we face now. So sad.
He does a nice redintion of this all time favorite disc.When you hear My Girl you think of The Temptations. Just wondering if David Ruffin knew what a classic this would become. Probably the all time Motown cut.
They’ve never lost a beat! One of the greatest groups of all time!! An American treasure!!! If this doesn’t bring back good memories then you must be dead!!
Aí como sempre falo nasci na época errada mais amo essas músicas cresci escutando com meu Pai e meus tios e sinto falta de uma época que eu não peguei😢😢😍😍😍😍
In my opinion , A very nice version of one of my all time Temp. Classics by David on Lead...... A hard Song for anyone because David Ruffin put His Stamp on it. But This Version in my opinion is Very Good. :) "Temptations Forever"
