These songs brings back memories when I was a child listening to music with my Aunt Peg. Because I am a baby boomer so whatever she played on the radio I listened to that kind of music 🎵
They were absolutely incredible you're right. The song's a good is what we live to back in the 60s and 70s. I grew up in that era was the greatest era ever. We had the music we had the car's we had the money and we had the girls and it just doesn't get any better than that motown was. A miracle.

Ken they all did . They'll all sing together .temptations drifters fourtops supremes any one who's voice has touched a Hart will all sing together and take away the pain and rebuild a better world
I saw the in person at the Majestic Theatre in San Antonio, Texas and then again with the Temps at the Sunken Gardens in San Antonio, Texas. Love them all, what a sound.. Love Levi, my favorite vocalist...🎼🎷☕️🌹🇺🇸
I'm a burnt out 63 year old white English boy. It means nothing when these gifts from God land on our ears. Colour, race, religion all man made nonsense. Let's just live, love and enjoy incredible master pieces like this
Omg Yes! I was a little girl when I fell in love with the Four Tops.. long before I realized how ugly the world could be. They are talented master performers! I have been a fierce advocate my entire old age life💞
Levi Stubb's had said that he was told by everyone that he should go solo but he said that he couldn't do it because they all grew up together in the same neighborhood and it wouldn't be fair to the rest of the guy's in the group to leave them for a solo career,so until the end they stayed together until the end
Hey!!! Grew across the Detroit river from you. Motown was part of growing up and as I grew older, I always found it funny that there were people that never listened to it/wasn't much of a big deal to them. Thanks, Detroit, for some of greatest music ever!!! ❤
It's January 2023..I've been listening to this song my entire life! Born in 1967 & grew up listening to Motown thanks to my parents. I just LOVE this song, can listen to it over & over again...They all look like they are having a good time singing this & it just makes even better. Thanks for posting!
Remembering Bro Abdul Duke Fakir, the last original member of the Four Tops, who passed away on Monday, July 22nd., 2024. RIP. Peaceful Journey Until then.
73 years old. White. And I loved these guys. I loved Motown. Sooooo talented. My god we were so lucky to have music like this. Nothing today can compare
@@ashsol2657 Of course credit goes to Holland Dozier & Holland, they wrote incredible songs, for the Tops to sing. But, it was Levi's voice that put the songs on the ' musical' map!!!
The moves lyri s made an absolute indelible impression never to be forgotten I'm so proud to be a supremes fan I hold them all to be the best female today I love'em much love always from bottom of my heart ♥
The Motown era was indeed an international musical monument to the world. Never be another in this lifetime! Rest peacefully Ms. Esther Gordy. Thought of you today. Truly miss your mentorship!❤
I listened to theTops and the Temps, when I was in the Marine Corps from 1966 to1970! I was a white dude from small town Iowa.......didn't make any difference, Had black Marines that I would have died for as friends.This is the BEST music on earth. All the black groups from my era were totally class acts....beautiful, simply beautiful. Why, is race still an issue.
Gene Hesser Race is still an issue because people, say simple what you did, people bring it up and there is always one person in every room that was raised for what ever reason hatting other races. To stamp t out don't raise the issue simple as that.
Daryl Biggart You can only get rid of these by open dialogue. Simply ignoring it or never bringing the reality of racism up will not solve anything. It gets better when people admit we have a serious issue in this country and we must have open dialogue.
Dressed casually. Not overly choreographed. These fellows were the epitome of cool in addition to the amazing song and vocals. So at ease, they appear as if they could have been out for a walk and simply decided to drop in for a song. I'm so glad they did. :)
I loved the clothes so clean cut and coordinated nice!!!! Omg the guy with the glasses reminds me of my great grandfather he had that look going with those glasses.
Does music honestly get any better than this??? This is a timeless and classic song the likes of which we don't see anymore. This song just gets better with time.
@@saltwell80 it sounds like an approval when you mention your race,just state like a normal person I enjoy this music. You don’t see any other race doing that
I just can't imagine life without Motown and I can't imagine Motown without the Four Tops. I've heard this song a million times and I get chills each time. What an amazing song sung by an amazing singer. Long live Levi.
They don't make music like this anymore! I am so thankful that I lived in the era of great singers and entertainers like this group!!!!!!!!!!! This is the only kind of music I listen to now. Love my oldies but goodies!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My wife and I went to see them in the Uk, in Nottingham. It was either 1988 or 1989. We can both remember them singing " Going Loco" and "Indestructible." Hence the years. I can not find any official record of this concert anywhere. They wore blue shiny suits, and were awesome. Did we imagine it ? Was anyone else there ?
Billy, yes it did back then...Better than the crap these kids have to listen to today...When my nephews and niece were introduced to Motown music no one can pull them away from it...
True story. Im born and raised in Detroit. I come from a very larger family. My father was a carpenter. He did work all-around the state for all kinds of famous musicians and people who had high standing in their fields. I remember my family was good friends with levi stubbs and his family. We used to often visit him and his family. We also are good friends with members of the Four Tops and have done all types of work on their houses and properties. This Era of music was and continues to be a staple of who I Am and where I came from. (TIMELESS)
They're all very handsome especially abdul fakir. Used to have a poster of them along with the temptations and other on my wall. Such a beautiful time to live in in spite of what was going on.
@@QuintTheSharker I got them mixed up. I thought the guy in the glasses was Ruffin. My apologies. Ouch At any rate, this is an incredible song, especially the lead vocal

I absolutely love this song & all songs by this incredible group! I too “Louis Mattis”😄have easily replayed & listened to this song well over one thousand times! Listening to any of these songs “just hundreds of times”🤣lol! is just never enough with songs this good & mesmerizing! When I am “not” listening to these songs on my CD’s, radio, stereo system or on tv( concerts by this group)than this incredible music 🎶 is playing in my memories( forever more) & in my ♥️ heart! Love this 🎵 song, this group & all their music!🥰
My son has just started really getting into Soul and R&B music. I couldn’t be more proud. I think this song in Bronx Take did it. I kept saying how good C looked driving that car with this song blasting. 🔥😭🤦🏾♀️🔥 🤦🏾♀️🖤🙏🏽🙌🏽
The wonderful Levi Stubbs knew how to get the words across so beautifully, soulfully. When he sings the line "...Because I'm so lonely..." gets me every time...
Wish this style came back into vogue again today. Three if these four tops have now passed away. Thank you for your music and class, gentlemen, and Rest In Peace.
It's one of those songs you never get tired of. It sounds like youre listening to it for the first time each time. Some magical quality about it. All of it.
I don’t think people truly recognize that the Andantes are hitting extremely high notes and octaves during the chorus. This song has elements of Opera and it gives me chills.
We just lost Duke the last surviving member of the original four tops. Rest in heaven all 4 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Amen🙏🏻
This era's music will never die. Just the most soulful, honest & enjoyable tunes.
It will be my favorite song of all time🌠
As a musician, it would have been an honor to have played with them
Rip all The Tops 🕊️
I know it’s so sad I was lucky enough to see him live at the O2 over her in the UK the year before last The Four Tops and the Temptations were performing together there was only Duke and Otis Williams from the Temptations who were the original ones but it was brilliant 👏👏👏👏😘

I’m a 80s man, but i very much enjoyed the music of Motown specially this song

MOTOWN fan early '60s to today in 2024. Loving the sound in sunny San Diego.
This man has a voice like an angel!
RIP Levi!
Truth Indeed
The classics will never die, they will live until eternity.
Love it!They also did some good Rockin Jivers in the 50s...believe it or not,,these are the Four Tops!!!
The clothes, the dance, the song pure magic!!!!!
I've replayed this song over 1000 times, just my favorite song of all time.

I love it. It's so beautiful. It never gets old.
Jesus Christ what a record this is.
What a huge difference with today's appearance of the singers ! Sooo much better and respectable looking back then.
And now, may they all rest in peace. Their music was THE best!
Beautiful, Precious memories of my youth!! THERE WILL NEVER EVER BE SINGERS AND ENTERTAINERS LIKE THESE AGAIN! NEVER EVER!
One the GREATEST songs ever......and AWESOME vocals.....the music arrangement....
My son has just started really getting into Soul and R&B music. I couldn’t be more proud. I think this song in Bronx Take did it. I kept saying how good C looked driving that car with this song blasting. 🔥😭🤦🏾♀️🔥
🤦🏾♀️🖤🙏🏽🙌🏽
Very good
@@jonathanriverovalerio4518right. ✌🏾
This song was featured in the film 🎥 a bronx tale
This song was released in 1964
A bronx tale was released in 1993/94
One of the most beautiful songs in the world, survives 60s 70s 80s 90s 2000s and sounds still fresh and groovy.
It is!
My all time favourite group R I P Levi x
I was a happy four- year old when this dropped.
This is one of the greatest songs ever.
Amen ❤
no dude the greatest hands down.
No doubt. One of the greatest.
Motown:
There's Marvin, then The Four Tops.
damn right it is
#390 on billboard's list of the 500 songs of all time . THUMBS UP
The wonderful Levi Stubbs knew how to get the words across so beautifully, soulfully. When he sings the line "...Because I'm so lonely..." gets me every time...
This is so great. All four of them.
I wasn’t even born yet. Love this
Yes brilliant group,so glad Levi didn't go solo they were brothers ❤
Wish this style came back into vogue again today. Three if these four tops have now passed away. Thank you for your music and class, gentlemen, and Rest In Peace.
What can I say my senior yr. 65 best of the best...
2.39 minutes of utter brilliance. Pity there is no bands like these around anymore.
Levi's voice is perfection ♥️❤️♥️
Love these boys, such style, charisma and talent. Oh and the amazing voice of the great Levi Stubbs. Magic era of music will never be matched again.
Absolutely, the best male, soul group ever that I've heard in all my 74 years.
It's one of those songs you never get tired of. It sounds like youre listening to it for the first time each time. Some magical quality about it. All of it.
I don’t think people truly recognize that the Andantes are hitting extremely high notes and octaves during the chorus. This song has elements of Opera and it gives me chills.
The chorus must be one of the best out there !
R.I.P. Lawrence, Obie, Levi & Duke ❤️❤️❤️❤️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
🙏 🙏 🙏 RIP
