When i hear this song reminds me of my Daddy, before he passed away with cancer he wanted too make sure we played this song for his service😥. He told me when it's my time he'll be at the gate with open arm's waiting for me😭. I Miss Him So Much, he was the best Daddy ever😍

I love this song, I was singing it, then decided to look it up on YouTube- I’m so glad it was added here. Martha sings it so beautifully; She and the Vandellas are definitely one of Motown’s gems. I loved this group growing up, oh how it bring back memories!❤

I was attending Detroit Northeastern High School when Motown was is full swing 1965. Attended every Motown Review at the Fox Theater, argued amongst ourselves who where the 'best' Motown groups and singers. Martha and the Vandellas & the Marvelletts were my two special groups, even above the Supremes. (MORE SOUL!!) MARTHA COULD BLOW !! WHAT A VOICE. SHE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN MORE PRAISE.

The songs of this era were the real thing......so much feeling went into singing back then...slow dancing with the one...well at that time anyway..some last some didn't. But it was these kind of songs that made you want to fall in love and stay in love. Tender times.. always the best times living life and really enjoying with no major responsibilities. Hanging out with friends school parties going to the skating rink and movies. Just good wholesome fun. Experiencing life as a teen. New world....Those were the days..

I remember hearing this song on the radio about ten years ago and running to my mother to find out the name of it, lol. All I could remember was the 'funny part but she knew what it was. I knew that it was Motown and it was either the Marvelettes or the Vandellas and she set me straight on who was singing the song too. One of the few times in my life I fell in love with a song the first time hearing it.

This was a huge hit in San Diego, and it actually topped the charts on San Diego's top-rated station (KCBQ) on Jan. 9, 1966. The song only made it to No. 70 on Billboard as the flip side of the No. 26 hit ("You've Been In Love Too Long") for the Detroit girl group headed by Martha Reeves.

@cassidyrose8348

The girl groups of "yesterday" certainly paved the way for the girl pop singers of today. Unfortunately, the girl singers of today have no "soul" but stand out as being "commercialists" with bad taste. who the f##$ influenced them??? Men, thats who. Twerk, pop your booty, shimmy and shake your boobs. Whatever happened to the musical aspect of music?

Got up an googled an up came the lyrics and the song started playing in my head. Wow not sure what prompted that flashback but it was amazing. Had Alexa play the song on repeat as I drifted back off. Love this........Texas gramma here

@Vincent50

My mom was waxing the floors one early Saturday morning before we kids got out of bed and she played this record. Well its been one of my Martha and the girls favorite song all these many years. I was in bed when I awoke to this awesome sound that morning. The other one she played another time doing the same thing waxing those floors Darling Baby by the Elgins. Another Motown winner.
