Supremes, The - You've Really Got A Hold On Me Lyrics

I can hear Flo and Mary in this track so clearly

Diana and Supremes sound
S e x y

supremes covering smokey robinson

Flo was so beautiful. 😢
Flo is so loud on this, haha, love her. 😍

These ladies can sing!!!!

The Funk Brothers at their finest...listen to the sway in this track, the counterpoint by the guitar players...
BRILLIANT!

Florence should sing this song, she had the blues feeling for it, not Diana.

great photos

REAL MUSIC BEAUTIFUL LADIES THANKS.

I had a crush! on Diana...LONDON, ENGLAND

this is great music America needs more of it

I love her fine ass.

Fuck diana she wouldnt be shit wout her group just like bea

Lovely pics

evrything the supremes do is class

they beat every girl group

Priceless

Very Sexy!!!!!!!

Really? i love that album Sunset is a good song, so is, The Man With The Rock and Roll Banjo Band

No, the worst, was that Country and Western album they recorded. I couldn't even get through that one. It was terrible with the exception of 'Funny how time slips away"

#classic .....I love this song.

Much better than the original.

Screw u, "Mr. Daft Punk"!!! ___ SIGH = :)

Holy Jesus Individuell86!. This Video really Got a Hold on Me, in my soul and mind. Thank you. Thank You Very Much.

Detroit Rules,Supremes Rule

A very demure version of Smokey and the Miracles song by The Supremes!..

love this cover

I always thought "A Bit Of Liverpool" was the worst Lp the Supremes ever released

MotownMaster they had rushed the making of it, but I love it due to the fact that they seem to be singing equally

@huge10inchdick you surely must be referring to yourself?? i mean, look at that username??

@IdealThinker beat them at what and wheres the contest ???

@huge10inchdick TAKE THAT!

Kool! Motown at least on record was rock and roll!

@sharonanony
no, linda wrote the song, that's a fact.
it's not like the house of the rising sun.
it's well documented and you can'

Listened to this by quite a few different artists, haven't found better than the Small Faces version.

@tuzwol
those newly written lyrics to Mbube where the Lion sleeps tonight, the complete melody of the song is taken from Mbube.
you can find it on youtube.
the tokens recorded Mbube with the newly written lyrics and title.

no, "Mbube" (Zulu: lion) was written in 1939 by Solomon Linda and performed by his group, the Evening Birds. "Mbube" became a hit throughout South Africa: it sold about 100,000 copies during the 1940s; and it lent its name to a style of African a cappella music which evolved into isicathamiya.
then Alan Lomax brought the song to the attention of Pete Seeger of the folk group The Weavers around 1950.
then New lyrics to the song were written by George David Weiss, Luigi Creatore and Hugo Peretti.

@tuzwol
i also like the Linda und The Evening Birds and the weavers
they made the first recordings of lion sleeps tonight in africa and the weavers brought it to america i think.

@tuzwol
listen to good vibrations, with sometimes 4 seperate vocal lines singing at the same time, and still it all blends perfectly together.
also the everly brothers were huge pioneers of harmony singing, just like the four freshmen and many many more.

@tuzwol
well, the beatles could sing any genre they wanted.
they have some of the best vocal harmonies in rock, but noone compares to the beach boys, brian wilsons vocal arrangements put phil spector to the wall.

Great pics! Thanks for posting.

@Individuell83
lol, enjoy, hehe

You know what? I would hurry home from school just to catch them on their time slot on the radio where they would play a lot of their songs.3 of their songs played in an hour would make me extremely happy! Then I would just content myself listening to the radio hoping the next time slot would play even 1 song of theirs! Crazy isnt it? We do a lot of crazy stuff when we are young!

This was the only decent track from A Bit Of Liverpool, that Lp never should have been released, i love The Supremes but that was just an awful album

are you sure it isnt originally theirs? the beatles loved their version of this song

That sound like a good memory. Especially sliding down the hill on you bottoms.

It sounds that your family has traditions that they follow for Christmas. I'm glad you will be spending time with you family for the holidays. And just for you, I wish that there will be snow for you to make you happy! Merry Christmas!

Glad you are looking forward to the holidays. What do I do on Christmas? It really depends where I am. I try to spend time with my family where there it lots if cooking and eating and drinking and loving each other. Then I try to get back to NYC to see my friends there. What do you do?

Well my friend - I have been away for a little bit and when I come back it seems that you have been very busy posting lots of GREAT early songs from the Supremes. So many that I have never heard before. Thank you - you are so great!

album filler. Motown loved to issue albums with two great songs and 10 filler songs. For some strange reason there was an exception...the Temptations had some early albums loaded with great material...a great value..

Although the Supremes are my FAVOURITE group ever, and I want to place them about all others, I do have to say in the Beatles defense that they were some trail-blazers too

Everybody does not like the same sound in there singing choices. Its silly to keep trying to push your views on others. Luther Vandross had a premier VOICE but if a person like hearing Johnny Cash you can't change their mind and taste. Diana Ross was and is a wonderful singer with an amazing sound and style ...if you like Mary and Flo best go buy their records and play them over and over and quit trying to rewrite history Diana Ross does not care about you!

Holy Cow...the melody of the song...Hummmmm You really got a hold on me...Yeah! (I love you Wil)

Agreed. This song doesn't really suit her voice. The best version of this song is the Temptations' IMO. Eddie Kendricks basically had Smokey's voice, but with a more consistent tone.

its you really not you've but diana was jammin as well diana would later sing more soulfully but this in the beginning so she wasn't allowed just listen to her later songs with the group "reflections".

cock in my pocket hulla!

Dianas voice gives me shivers. This is a stunning version :D

always, having fun

I'm dancing now. and singing, there's nothing like a hold

Let's sing.

And I'm digging the graphics, too. Love at the end where the pics come flashing right along with the beat! That's a cool touch. If I ever get videos up I'll remember that technique.

STEREO. Nice sound editing of this super soul classic. Thanks.
