    My Girl is my Nana (Maternal Grandmother)'s song for me! She used to rock me on her lap in a chair when I was a little girl and sing My Girl to me all the time! When Otis Williams said that song is his favorite Temptations song, it brought tears of joy to my eyes! What a beautiful perfect song for any girl!

The cast really did deserve that Tony Award they won tonight. The choreography was next level. The Temps bested them vocally, but the cast bested the Temps with their showmanship. These young men have a great deal to be proud of! They are taking the Temps into the future!

    We have seen the Tina Turner story musical in Birmingham (pronounced Birmingam by the way) UK and The Motown Story musical in London ( apologies, forgot the proper titles) and they were brilliant. Looking forward to the Temptations story coming over here. We had the Temptations story serialised for TV, on DVD where we learnt about the tragic / evil (?) David Ruffin, but lent it to a friend and never got it back. You can always tell which character was consulted for the story line!
    Rock on guys!

  • @Frostgrl681
    @Frostgrl681 5 лет назад +29

    The choreography is awesome, but somehow it feels off. When they dance, they come across as black people imitating black people dancing. The Temps had a lot of swag when they danced, there were no corny moments. The Temps could lay steps out, and they did a lot without doing a lot. Some of these steps come across as a bit, yipee-yah-oish. A black choreographer should know better. We have to get back to passing our culture down properly including dance. We should never look like cheap imitations of ourselves.

    • @johnschneller308
      @johnschneller308 5 лет назад +6

      I totally agree and I'm a 71 yr old white man, who loved the Temptations, but only the original 5, plus a little Dennis. I saw them perform live three times in Cleveland area, back in the late 60's. When I first saw the Tony award videos and this, I thought, it's too over the top, doesn't represent the Temps choreography and i wondered if i was alone, so i was glad to read this. Also, if i was doing a Temptations musical, or video, where is the most famous move of all, the Temptations walk? I hope its in the Broadway show, if not they missed their most iconic move. The movie Temptations captured the "dance moves" better, but even those were too perfect.

    • @Createdbysophistic8ed
      @Createdbysophistic8ed 5 лет назад +4

      I agree, there's definitely something off. Things seem more robotic and speedy in choreography these days. The fellas are doing great, yes, but to say they are just as good as the original Tempts is a long shot. I wish it weren't true, but there will never be another group like the Temptations!!
