Blu was my mom's favorite. We would see them every summer they came to the Cape Cod Melody Tent. My girl is my dad's song❤ we would sing it at the end of every phone call til he passed. Truly the soundtrack to our lives.....
Can’t wait to see this outstanding show! I grew up in Motown during the Temps heyday. This brings back the sights, sounds and memories of my childhood in such a big way. So proud to have grown up where the Motown sound gave its gift to the world.
Have a child teach them responsibility. Financially responsible for eighteen years In that time, you have to teach capability One day they leave the house you in tears Your Nobility is now Moral responsibility.
I grew up listening and seeing the entertainers of motown. Their moves was of GRACE SMOOTH and CLASSIC now that REAL SOUL... not pop...They need to pull out those old films and see the real talents.....because this right now was told by people who do not look like us( his story)
I show this show in Berkeley, CA. It was magnificent! I bought the " Ain't To Proud" T shirt and everyone asked where I got it from. I will see it again!
I was so lucky to watch exactly first appearance of this show in Broadway during my first trip to NYC with my wife. All songs performed were all I know so that I could sing along and trace the history of the Temps though I am not “English speaking people”. I wish I could have a chance to see the show again.. anyway, love this and i would say this was such a fantastic show i ever watched.
This was the best show ever! We were there on Saturday at the Imperial theater as Otis Williams was the special guest in the audience. Most humble man ever and we were able to spend his birthday together. Happy Birthday Mr. Williams! You are a true legend!
Nothing is ever like the ORIGINAL - but it's so good to see a New Generation doing their Thang! And keeping this great music from dying Great! Great job guys!
Their all very talented, but it would have been nice if they would have stuck to the original dance style and singing of the Temptations. I agree that the Temptations Movie was on point, they never changed their dance style or singing into something else, because this is what they were known for.
Only the originals could do the original singing and dancing. God don’t make cookies, cutting people! They made it “Their Own” and it’s fantastic! Life just doesn’t have duplicates or substitutes people. Fair!
I thought the same thing. If they are supposed to be the Temptations, they should have kept their same dance style. The Temps were smooth. They weren’t Hip Hop.
My Sister bought tickets for me for my Christmas present on January 8th 2022 and this Musical/Play/Dancing Show was Inspiring, electrifying and over the Top but it ended on January 16 2022. I hope they come back again.
Absolutely brilliant choreography by Tony-award winning Sergio Trujillo !! (I find myself stopping frames and trying to repeat the dance moves... GREAT work Sergio...)
I’m a huge fan of The Temptation!! I grew up listening at all the Temptations songs!! I felt every meaning of each word!! This performance may satisfy the newer generation, but I can’t change the original members, who was smooth, soulful and spiritual all in one!!! They all tried, but I didn’t feel the powerful voices as before!!!
That's not how I remember the Temptations! They were methodical and smooth in their dance movements! I guess it was okay! They had a step called the "Tip!" I remember how it goes! I did not see this in the dance performance! Those were the days of real soul!😁❤️
❤Love, love, live me some temptations. Was listening to them the other day. When my son was in HS band one year their show was Hits illegal USA and one of the songs was "Can't Get Next To You" it was awesome with a dance routine.
I was in high school in the 60s. The only thing on the radio was Motown and news. No folk music. I loved all these groups, trios, duets, soloists, the precision dance moves Bruno Mars loves.
As a "baby boomer" who grew up listening to the "Motown Sound", these performers have the sound down pat. BUT the "moves" are all WRONG! Btw, I can't complain because they were MUCH better than most of the performers AND the "music" I've seen/heard these days. 👏😁👍
I came to say exactly this! I grew up with the Temptations. They have modernized the moves, probably to suit an audience that would find the original choreography too tame. The Temptations were iconic for a reason. Plus these dudes were definitely not singing live.
I grew up on Motown and other soul music, but I am more of a "listener" than a dancer. I like the choreography, but I feel that the music was more important than the dancing. However, the dancing is much better than the rap and hip-hop performances which are cheap. Also, The Temptations dress and look better than those hip-hop artists. I would love to see The Temptations in person and feel their music.
I am SO mad at myself that I somehow missed this show when it was on Broadway--it's my era...and the music of my life. LOVE The Temptations! (I remember seeing them on Ed Sullivan... and dancing to them at high school sock hops...) Where's "Ain't Too Proud" playing? Those actors are even better dancers...than the originals.
Broadway performers are trained to use the healthiest technique possible to preserve their voices since they are performing every single night, sometimes 2 shows in certain days. In a way, it makes it seem so "Sanitized".
Love it, being from the other side of the country don’t know that I’ll make it to Broadway anytime soon. But do appreciate them paying homage to some greats of all of our past! It IS refreshing that they did not ‘modernize’ it with ‘twerking’ or too much skin, kept it-Love- classy as it should be!
I know, I was about to cry, especially when that young man did the lead of David Ruffin. All kind of Beautiful day came rushing back. Going to the park not having to worry about getting shot, play in front of the house, jumping rope and play hop scotch, In the summertime was the most Beautifulest time of children live!!! Now they're getting gun down💧💧💧And I weep for them. It brought back wonderful memories but then I come back to this sinful time we're living in!!! GOD Please Help Us, Your Children🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Very happy to see they made this show, and these guys are really talented - BUT . . . they ain't the Temps. They're missing something to be sure. It's a little too Broadway, lacking the grit. This just made we want to listen to and watch the originals.
Nobody can be the original Temps,but they can try. Watch the originals and be happy a Broadway play brought the Temps back to life for just a nano second.
The movie along with it’s cast was 1,000% BETTER AND MORE REALISTIC. This is for TOURISTS AND THOSE WHO HAVE NEVER SEEN THE ORIGINAL TEMPTATIONS PERFORM, I have since the 60’s at the Apollo Theater and they did not sing or prance around like that.
I have this too. Bought it back in the day. Loved the actor who played David Ruffin. Temptations came to Bloomington normal back in mid 2000. Otis Williams last original member still was performing. They went to a local nursing home to give Christmas gifts. They didn't want any press for it.
The temptations were incredible showmen, such a pleasure to watch. So talented.
They’ve got powerful lungs! Dancing and singing like they are…and no one is out of breath-incredible!
It was a great show but weren't they lip syncing?
ffa
Black people!!! You know how we do!!! We Show Up. To Show Out. #MyPeople #MiGentes 💕
They are lip syncing...the "wireless" mike is just a normal wired mic with out the cord!!
@@bigfoenation I'm sure they are in this performance! They have to present themselves without blemish on national tv.
The mighty Temptations are often imitated but can never be duplicated.
That's what I said they sound like them
Nice! But, I remember and saw the originals live. One can't compare to the originals, who were suave and smooth, plus talented.
NEVER!!!
@@southerngirl1960 that’s disrespectful
@@johnomalley7211 amen never duplicated

As well as Richard Street, and Damon Harris 🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for not forgetting Richard and Damon ❤
Blu was my mom's favorite. We would see them every summer they came to the Cape Cod Melody Tent. My girl is my dad's song❤ we would sing it at the end of every phone call til he passed. Truly the soundtrack to our lives.....
Gee, I saw them at the Cape Cod Melody Tent it was an amazing show.
Breath of fresh air...still give me the originals!!!
I'm glad someone is keeping this music alive! It's truly great and timeless.
Can’t wait to see this outstanding show! I grew up in Motown during the Temps heyday. This brings back the sights, sounds and memories of my childhood in such a big way. So proud to have grown up where the Motown sound gave its gift to the world.
I grew up on Motown as well. I've seen it twice, once before the pandemic and this past Saturday. To say it's great is an understatement.
Have a child teach them responsibility.
Financially responsible for eighteen years
In that time, you have to teach capability
One day they leave the house you in tears
Your Nobility is now Moral responsibility.
Saw this show on its opening night and it was absolutely fantastic!
Wow, what a thrill!
The show is AMAZING. So glad it's returning.
Growing up in the 60's, Motown was EVERYTHING!! 🤗❤️❤️❤️
Saw thisnlast night in Nashville- this level of energy the entire 3 hours! These men are athletes as well as exceptional vocalists and dancers
I would love to see this show!!!
Me too, If it come to Chicago, I am going
It was really good, was the last Broadway show I saw.
Me too.
Go for it! 😎 👍🏼
Me too but from my tiny island in Martinique it is a big dream.
This performers are the truth. To move like that consistently while singing your notes takes an incredible amount of time to perfect.
Most of the best music from the 60s came from Motown, this was great.
ABSOLUTELY! The Beatles were nothing compared to the black bands and groups.
You Betcha
@@tm13tube you're letting you insecurities show.
@@mjedits8357 I mean he’s not wrong at all even John Lennon said himself so what are you his Dick?
Agreed 🎤 music 🎶
I’m not a Broadway musical fan, but I would pay to see this!!!
It is an amazing show. I just saw it at the Ahmanson
I’m not showing they are touring in the city of New Orleans.
@@sgaribaldi1163 Los Angeles. They are touring in Los Angeles
I just saw this live yesterday it was so good
I grew up listening and seeing the entertainers of motown. Their moves was of GRACE SMOOTH and CLASSIC now that REAL SOUL... not pop...They need to pull out those old films and see the real talents.....because this right now was told by people who do not look like us( his story)
I'm soo glad I was able to see this play yesterday. Amazing talent from everyone in the cast.
Ain't Too Proud to Beg one of my favorite songs. Love the Temps.
David Eli Ruffin impressionist was out of sight!!! I Love the Black Stage Performance!!!!
Those vocals!!!! They nailed it!
I show this show in Berkeley, CA. It was magnificent! I bought the " Ain't To Proud" T shirt and everyone asked where I got it from. I will see it again!
This musical is a must see. Singing was so darn amazing, dancing and choreography was awesome. I loved the show and want to see it again!!
That backflip thoo! 😯😯
Best musical I've seen... Just seen it tonight in Columbus, Ohio
Such great music and the energy, wow.
Ahhh this just immediately made me smile 😊 great music and performance
No they didn’t even do their dance moves are you serious rn?
I saw this on Broadway pre-Covid and it was amazing!
I was so lucky to watch exactly first appearance of this show in Broadway during my first trip to NYC with my wife. All songs performed were all I know so that I could sing along and trace the history of the Temps though I am not “English speaking people”.

I just seen this!!! Incredible!!! Love the temptations!!

You are a true legend!
They did great!!! Choreography was on point!
indeed! But the lip-syncing was so Milli Vanilli
Absolutely love the Temptation Group, Awesome!!!!
Chicka boom chicka boom Chicka Boom Boom Boom💕
💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾😄
Nothing is ever like the ORIGINAL - but it's so good to see a New Generation doing their Thang! And keeping this great music from dying Great! Great job guys!
My grandad would have loved this. Rip granddaddy I love and miss you!
Makes my heart sing along! ❤
omg they are awesome i just got my tickets to see them april 29.2023 here at kravis center in west palm beach florida i can’t wait
Their all very talented, but it would have been nice if they would have stuck to the original dance style and singing of the Temptations. I agree that the Temptations Movie was on point, they never changed their dance style or singing into something else, because this is what they were known for.
I noticed a few
Yeah, you’re 💯
I had to thumb down this one . Needed actors from the movie!
Only the originals could do the original singing and dancing. God don’t make cookies, cutting people! They made it “Their Own” and it’s fantastic! Life just doesn’t have duplicates or substitutes people. Fair!
I thought the same thing. If they are supposed to be the Temptations, they should have kept their same dance style. The Temps were smooth. They weren’t Hip Hop.
Amen amen amen
This is just the most feel good number! This is one to see!!! ❤️❤️❤️
My Sister bought tickets for me for my Christmas present on January 8th 2022 and this Musical/Play/Dancing Show was Inspiring, electrifying and over the Top but it ended on January 16 2022. I hope they come back again.
The performances are great. This is still my kind of music. I would love to see this music in person and hear it for myself.
Saw the show in San Francisco and it was AWESOME! I am going again in the fall.
Saw this three times in Los Angeles. I loved it so much!!!!
Beautiful performance. The dancing is designed for a Broadway show. This is a group of talented people. I enjoyed this!
Absolutely brilliant choreography by Tony-award winning Sergio Trujillo !! (I find myself stopping frames and trying to repeat the dance moves... GREAT work Sergio...)

You know…it is possible to appreciate the original Temps and not talk down these men and their performance.
Just sayin..
@@therealmistahjay I certainly didn’t!! They did their best but I’m entitled to my opinion, which is my preference!!
I absolutely love The Temptations ❤🇨🇦
Really a great tribute to the marvelous Temps!!!
I need to go see them while they're touring. Love the Tempts. ❤️
Saw Ain’t Too Proud to Beg in Cleveland. It was wonderful.
That's not how I remember the Temptations! They were methodical and smooth in their dance movements! I guess it was okay! They had a step called the "Tip!" I remember how it goes! I did not see this in the dance performance! Those were the days of real soul!😁❤️
I don’t like this Hip Hop version of the Temptations. They didn’t dance like that.
The "Tip"? You mean the Temptation Walk?
Give them an "A" for effort
True, but don't forget they are on Broadway and they have to cater to both the older and younger generations.
Remember, this is the Broadway musical adaptation of the Temptations. Please, don't show your ignorance. They did a great job.
❤Love, love, live me some temptations. Was listening to them the other day. When my son was in HS band one year their show was Hits illegal USA and one of the songs was "Can't Get Next To You" it was awesome with a dance routine.

I was in high school in the 60s. The only thing on the radio was Motown and news. No folk music. I loved all these groups, trios, duets, soloists, the precision dance moves Bruno Mars loves.
Just saw this musical this past Friday. Its one of the best tickets in town. A must see.

Exactly! The Temptations are smoooooth, baby. These guys are too jumpy-jumpy.

Right on 👍🏾 keeping the Classic Temptations legacy alive

Brings back so many memories when I was younger. Loved it!!!
Wow! What an Awesome performance!😊❤🎹
How come I don't feel the soul in their voices?
Yeah, I thought the voices were not quite right, but I didn't know what was missing. I think you're right. The singing is too sanitized, no soul.
Broadway performers are trained to use the healthiest technique possible to preserve their voices since they are performing every single night, sometimes 2 shows in certain days. In a way, it makes it seem so "Sanitized".
Wow....there Good..!!! The Temptations where Legendary!!!
Was so excited to see this in Omaha in October. Such an incredible musical.
They’re talented I admit it they’re good at singing but I would appreciate it if they actually paid omage and danced like the Tempts
Me too.
@@drdeedeecurtis EXACTLY!!!!! You said it ALL!!!!
Balance You said it! I don’t like that they’re not doing their dance routines!
@@racourdav that would make it so much better
Thank You! Why does everything have to be so modern???
They were my favorite group of the 60's. These folks did an outstanding job and actually surpassed on the dance moves.
MAY THIS MUSIC LIVE FOREVER!
I really want to see this Musical I wasn’t born around that time but I love anything old school music they need to j5 one
Got to see this in December before Pandemic killed the show. It was GREAT.
Love it, being from the other side of the country don’t know that I’ll make it to Broadway anytime soon. But do appreciate them paying homage to some greats of all of our past!
It IS refreshing that they did not ‘modernize’ it with ‘twerking’ or too much skin, kept it-Love- classy as it should be!
They’re not tho if they really were they’d take time outta there day to learn their dance moves🤷🏾♂️
They wouldn't only make the Temptations Proud.. They make the US proud also. Sweet Brown..💯💅🏾👜
This is so great day it bring me way back to my high school days being with family members and friends 🙂
I know, I was about to cry, especially when that young man did the lead of David Ruffin. All kind of Beautiful day came rushing back.

Hall and Oates did a live album with Eddie and David..
Brilliant Motown .
Rgds from England.

Great. Inspires you to see the originals.
Wow! If that was just a small part of the show the whole show must be .ind blowing.
What a joy. Takes you back to their heyday. They did the Temps proud.
Didn't know this existed and its Tony awarded!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Wonderful job!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Here after jawan Jackson landed a actual spot in the temptations

Wish I could safely see them.
Saw the show on tour in Dallas a month ago. It was wonderful 🎉
I saw this performance in Seattle Washington. This performance was smoking hot. This was a number one show. I enjoyed the entire performance.
Beautiful!
Awweee Hell now I gotta put the movie on...🤦🏾♀️

I have this too. Bought it back in the day. Loved the actor who played David Ruffin. Temptations came to Bloomington normal back in mid 2000. Otis Williams last original member still was performing. They went to a local nursing home to give Christmas gifts. They didn't want any press for it.
This musical was AMAZING!
Nothing about says The Temptations, however they can sing!

They are outstanding!! Awesome!!!
Ant to proud to beg is my favorite song 🎵
