His 1966 hit "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" was a major success and his most well-known song. He was offered a chance to sing with The Temptations, but he politely declined in favor of his younger brother, David Ruffin (born 1941; died 1991).
After the success of "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted", the intended follow-up, "East Side West Side", was released only in Australia due to an argument with Motown head Berry Gordy. The song was written by Ron Welser and Flamingos' member Terry Johnson.
With his brother David Ruffin, Jimmy Ruffin released a popular cover version of "Stand By Me" (by Ben E. King), taken from The Ruffin Brothers' album, I Am My Brother's Keeper.
Jimmy Ruffin's other hits include "I've Passed This Way Before", "Gonna Give Her All The Love I've Got", "Don't You Miss Me A Little Bit Baby", "I'll Say Forever My Love", "It's Wonderful To Be Loved By You" and "Tell Me What You Want".
In 1980 he collaborated with the Bee Gees' musician Robin Gibb, who produced his album Sunrise. From it came the single which would be his last Top 10 UK and U.S. hit: "Hold On To My Love". In 1986 Jimmy Ruffin collaborated with the British pop group Heaven 17, singing "A Foolish Thing To Do" and "My Sensitivity" on a 12" EP record.
In the 1980s, Ruffin moved to live in Britain, where he continued to perform successfully. In December 1984 he collaborated with Paul Weller of The Style Council for his benefit single "Soul Deep." This went under the name of The Council Collective.
Following the 2010 release of his album I Am My Brother's Keeper, Ruffin began writing and recording songs for a new album that was never issued.
In 2012, a compilation album entitled, "There Will Never Be Another You", including his hit songs "What Becomes of The Broken Hearted", and "Hold On To My Love" had been released.
In addition to his brother David Ruffin (deceased), Jimmy Ruffin had three other siblings: Quincy, Rita Mae (deceased) and Rosa (deceased).

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you
Too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe
A word I say
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see
Suspicion in your eyes
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these
Tears are real I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh, let our love survive
I'll dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I'll never lie to you
Mmm, yeah, yeah
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you
Too much, baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe
A word I say
Don't you know
Caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you
Too much, baby
Don't you know I'm
Caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you
Too much, baby
Don't you know
Caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you
Too much, baby...

Beautiful and powerful voice
@hughgevainey3181
Dee Dee's voice is too powerful. The mics of that era do absolutely no justice to her incredible vibrato and perfect pitch. No fancy auto tune here just pure talent.
@patrickwellington4214
As much as I enjoy listening to Dinne Warwick ,this younger sister of had these raw gritty power vocals.I think this is the best version of this song I have ever heard.She had a strong soulful voice,yet it was nice,she reminds me of a female version of David Ruffin.She certainly would have made a great lead singer in a female vocal group.Dee Dee Warwick gone too soon.

@stephen1622
Oh man I love this version, what a strong voice!!!!! RIP Dee Dee we miss you much
@andrewbytheway5475
Her vocals takes this song to another level !!
@thejonquil
She certainly gives Elvis a run for the money. Great sound, powerful and soothing.
@frankfurfaro3891
Doesn’t touch Elvis nobody does
@Soulmusicaretha
She does it’s so much soulful to me
@mr.johnjones7346
Elvis version is of no comparison to this by Di Di Warwick. Di Di own is more soulful and Elvis can’t reach her range. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
