    MOTOWN! This was my favorite genre for years. Best driving music EVER. So many great groups! And then the British Invasion hit and Motown melted away after a few years. How can you NOT dance to this?
    Four Tops, The Temptations, The Supremes, MARTHA and The Vandelas….etc etc. this is such FUN music. Part of the soundtrack of my high school years. 😀

    There are SO MANY great Motown songs out there for you to discover. Another one from the Four Tops is "Reach Out I'll Be There", but my absolute fave of theirs is "Bernadette". You'll love that one. Also, don't miss "Superstition" by Stevie Wonder and "Tears of a Clown" by Smokey Robinson.

    I find myself coming back to this song over and over. The Four Tops were brilliant. Reminds me of simpler times in my teen years back in the 90s when I started listening to Motown and falling in love with the music.
    Btw, I absolutely *love* your reaction to this song. It's my internal reaction to Motown. And I put this song on repeat because my autism can't handle hearing it only once and being done with it.

    This is by far, the best reaction to any song 🎶, hands down. Prove me wrong. “This is f*cken Music” should be on a t-shirt. So many great moments in this video. “Tambourine, that’s my job.” 😂. What you heard in your right hear I believe is a baritone saxophone 🎷. I played it in my HS Jazz band. I also restart this song 2-3 times at least. The intro just gets you hyped up. You were vibing to this song like you were in a Zumba class. Well done 👏

    Having grown up with all this great music it always boggles my mind that people don’t know all these songs. However, seeing your joy in discovering the sheer amount of musical glory that is the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s redeems all. By the way, 30’s through 50’s popular music was pretty darn good as well. Drops off a bit in the 90’s and very sparse nowadays in comparison. I blame autotune and computers for the lack of creativity.

At first, when I first heard of this song, I thought it was The Temptations, but I learn it’s the group called The four Tops. I learn something new daily. Thanks so much for sharing your reaction and it’s a like and thumbs up.😄👍#thefourtops

    If you liked this, check out the Flamingos singing "I Only Have Eyes for You". A slower groove but a love song that will melt you like butter. And on a completely different note, one of the premier jazz singers in the world was Sarah Vaughan, known as "the Divine One" and "Sassy". There's a 1963 live performance, in black & white, of her performing "Misty" that should be required listening for anyone who appreciates vocal talent. She's the best of the best.

    If you want a good feel good song try....
    Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls of Fire
    Martha and the Vandelles - Dancing in the Streets
    Chuck Berry - Johnny B Good
    If you want to see a LEGENDARY live performance try...
    Elvis - Suspicious Minds (Live in Las Vegas)
    If you want your heart to melt out of your body try...
    Percy Sledge - When a Man Loves a Woman
    Harry Chapin - Cats in the Cradle
    Righteous Brothers - Unchained Melody
    Righteous Brothers - You've Lost That Lovin Feelin

On the other hand I was sneaking into clubs aged 15/16 exactly because of the music. We didn't want to pull or drink we just wanted to dance. This would be 76/77. They always played great music; it's what you went for. DJs were like rock stars. Motown was always on the playlist. Everyone was so slim back then I'm sure it's all the grooving we did. I danced my arse off. You're pretty good mover yourself actually. 💃👯

    My FAVORITE music is R&B, Motown, Soul... Great and sexy music! This generation of Mainstream music is awful. I mean there are a few great ones out there like Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, etc... I was born in '69, so I remember this music. Classic R&B, Soul, Rock... Such great music!
    Great reaction, Hector!!
    Much love✌️❣️

    An undeniably happy song!
    That buzzing in your left ear was a baritone or bass saxophone I think.
    Yes, more Motown than soul for this one.
    I said to you at the start of your journey that it’s a big musical ocean to enjoy.
    Yes, you should do disco. You’ll love it.
    Disco is also a happy sound which makes you want to move.
    But so is grunge.
    And punk.
    And metal.
    Get the picture?
    Be well Mark.
