    David Ruffin's daughter, Cheryl Ruffin, said in an interview that when David and The Temptations recorded "My Girl" in 1964, she was actually in the studio sitting on a stool watching. She was 4 years old, and her mother, David's wife, Sandra, dressed her in a white and yellow dress, and had her hair in pigtails. She said as David recorded the song, he sang it to her. He even ad- libbed "I Even Got The Month Of May With My Girl" at the end of the song, as her birthday is in May. Cheryl Ruffin is "My Girl".

      This performance is amazing
      I’m 78 and grew up listening to the Temps and all the wonderful Motown artists
      About two weeks ago I was using a bus service called Dial A Ride and I played this song.
      All the other passengers and I engaged in a spontaneous sing a long. Even some of the people who looked to be in their 20s knew the song
      Goes to show how long lasting the music by the Temptations is!

    It's been nearly 30 years since his tragic passing, and I've come to realize recently that David Ruffin was perhaps the greatest male singer, entertainer produced by Motown - with the exception of maybe Smokie Robinson. No disrespect to the incredibly great Marvin Gaye, one of my favorites. Hopefully, Ruffin is at peace in the afterlife. He certainly left us with an incredible body of music. We simply do not have entertainers like this today, so thoroughly dedicated to their craft.

      Well Known all around the World? A GREAT VOICE that can NEVER be DUPLICATED!!!! My Wife and I were MARRIED for 25 YEARS when she Passed Away on September 25th of 2020 due to cardiac arrest, and lack of oxygen. While she was alive I'd play this song for her whenever I had a chance from the time we met until she passed away. It has deeper meaning for me now when I hear it.

He died just one year before Eddieand because Eddie died of ‘natural causes’ lung cancer due to a lifelong smoking habit and David from a crack overdose there is less sympathy and loss expressed for David. This is wrong. They both died from being human but what marks them out surely is the joy and wonder they gave to us all.i have loved the temps since I was 14 years old when I bought their greatest hits as my very first album and I am 64 now. Let us just be sad that we lost them but oh so glad that we had them. I feel privileged to have been born in the Motown era and able to love the ‘temps’ till my dying day!

    I grew up with all of them, the originals and the ones after and I love love, love them so much. I finally was able to see them at the mountain winery a few years ago, and with the only lasting temptation of Otis and he was getting tired and I was so grateful to sit in the third row to be so close to see them all and I miss the rest of them so much. The greatest greatest group of all times and I’m so grateful to have grown up when I did to be able to know them at the time and I wish people of other generations could listen and watch and appreciate them like I have
