Up until about a month ago, I had never heard this song before in my life. And just out of the blue my boyfriend told me that this would be our song. And it took me by surprise that this song was just so wonderfully written and that he was sharing that this was how he felt about me. For the first time in my life I was speechless. And so everytime I signon, I listen to this song. And each time I hear it,joy floods my heart and tears stream down my face. Thank GOD for my man and the Temptations.
The song was written and sung by Theo on the Phoenix Rising Album. The thing is Theo left the group in the middle of recording the album and was replaced by Barrington aka Bo. Rather then re-do the vocals with Bo they just credited with Bo's name as to not cause confusion .
Ran into this song coincidentally shortly after meeting my husband, I couldn't believe how beautiful it was it had me in tears. It reminds me of him... I LOVE it so much. HE found ME and I'm currently pregnant with his 1st son (my 2nd).
I love The Temptations. My husband James has sang all of their songs to me for 50 years. He had his dream come true when he sang with Them on The Oprah show in July 2003.Thanks to our daughters for the wonderful surprise .Thanks to Oprah for the 'hook up"
theo, mr. yt8891 recorded this song before he left the group, and he also sang lead on stay, a big hit! I keep saying this Otis knows how to get good and great front men, he has never put a bum in that group regardless who we like over another singer, as long as otis is connected to the tempts they will record and sing good music!
Any true Temptation fan can usually recognize their voices. Ali (the Voice), David, Eddie, Theo, Dennis, Melvin, etc. Temps voices are easily distinguished from others.
This song is so deep. I love to listen to it for the acoustics sounds and it's a very good bop song. The vocals are amazing really feels like they are singing this song to me. One of the Temps last best songs ever. I sure do miss these guys!
When I hear this sng I cry and it makes my heart cry as well. Such a devotion of love song. If only someone really felt this way about me for real and not just feeling like a group of talented musicians proposing and decating thier love for me. Wow that was deep. This song came out when I was going through some ruff stuff with the man that I thought would have been my husband.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE VIDEOS ON THESE SONGS YOU WILL SEE THAT IT WAS Bo Barrington that sang lead on these songs.Stay and my promise. Bo was the the Phoenix rising CD. THE NE SO CALLED TEMPS ARE A WAIST. DRNNIS,BO,& ALI WOODSON WERE GREAT AS REPACEMENTS FOR DAVID RUFFIN.
Elevator Eyes is a similar story however this one was re-done. It was originally done by Theo and Ali and was released on the Emperors of Soul Box Set as an unreleased track. It was then released on Ear-Resistable with the vocals re-done by Bo and Terry Weeks
My first love , I never said the things that would let her know how I really feel. iF only I could turn back the hands of time. Some things you only get one shot at. I just hope for that feeling once more before i DIE
Hi Walter. It's ironic that you would write this. I was just wondering this about a friend of mine who played this song for me to listen to. I didn't know what to think about it. It's been almost 6 years, but nothing has changed between us. I just wonder if he plays it for every possible woman out there? Anyway, I was just curious about your insight on this song.
@LadiiSkorpio Keep playing it...don't wait for anniversary....with LIFE everyday stresses....sometimes we as male or female...just need to know ..I'm with you no matter what...I'm Gonna Love Ya....This is my PROMISE...
Felt this once boy did she breAk my heart lied to me about having a family already and left me after 2 years told me she did not have any kids and she did so if u feel this song u know how much it hurt! I wanted to give my all
Theo led this song, both he and Barrington were on that album; Theo led Stay. This is Theo's song, he wrote it and has recorded it since, either on a Four Tops or a solo album. Theo and Barrington don't sound that similar.

Next to My Girl, This Is My Promised is my very favorite. Every man should have feelings like this for this lady. Oh man, I love it.

Every woman wants her man to feel this way about her all the time. This song brings tears to eyes. Oh the harmony, that's myTemps.
Sandy Bettis most men want to feel this way for our woman hard thing to find without the pain that comes with
I love this song! and the album "Phoenix Rising" is totally underrated.

This is such a beautiful song! I wish a man felt this way about me 😢

I Love ❤ this song.. This is my Dream man!!!!!
Mann
This song is for the true woman in your life.
A classic!
I got married off of this song on November 25,2005.
Elevator Eyes is a similar story however this one was re-done. It was originally done by Theo and Ali and was released on the Emperors of Soul Box Set as an unreleased track. It was then released on Ear-Resistable with the vocals re-done by Bo and Terry Weeks
This is Theo. You saw Bo sing it in 2000 because Theo left the group right after recording this song, in 1998.
they r the greatest
My first love , I never said the things that would let her know how I really feel. iF only I could turn back the hands of time. Some things you only get one shot at. I just hope for that feeling once more before i DIE
Lovely!
love making music right here
an alltime hit this!!!
if I ever get married again this the song I would sing to my new wife
TThis was my wedding song, June 8, 2005. Too bad the song was wasted.

I want my husband to feel this way about me. I love this song!
This is certainly my man Theo Peoples.
I think he left the Temptations too soon.
@LadiiSkorpio Keep playing it...don't wait for anniversary....with LIFE everyday stresses....sometimes we as male or female...just need to know ..I'm with you no matter what...I'm Gonna Love Ya....This is my PROMISE...
You REALLY BETTER MEAN IT !!!
who gave this a thumbs down?? maybe on the video quality....
Temptations with a sweet perfect sweet Joint
Felt this once boy did she breAk my heart lied to me about having a family already and left me after 2 years told me she did not have any kids and she did so if u feel this song u know how much it hurt! I wanted to give my all
💓🎶💗
Theo plays here in st louis regularly....I wonder if he would do this song if I request it..
Sho nuf Girl!!!
That's what I m talking about
Personally I like the Bo and Terry version better. The rhythem in Bo in Terry's version is so much more smoother in my opinion.
Yeah dats Barrington!!! lol ppl saying Theo and Ollie and Im like WTF they must aint been reading their Pheonix Rising Credits!!!
Can anyone tell em who's singing lead on this? ...and where I can find him and propose marriage? lol No seriously, who is that?
Theo Peoples when he was with the Temptations, when they made the Phoenix Rising Album
You know this is Theo Peoples on this song right?
Theo led this song, both he and Barrington were on that album; Theo led Stay. This is Theo's song, he wrote it and has recorded it since, either on a Four Tops or a solo album. Theo and Barrington don't sound that similar.
Music People. Music
@koreangirl707 YEAH
@bigwoodse874 never put a bum in the group? Williams fired one lead singer who could no longer hit high notes.
lol lol
