[@alicewalker8141]

Definitely "Unsung!"

[@johntaeowens7483]

Amen

[@wendyclayton5192]

I loved him

[@bryantelder5905]

Ollie Woodson might be one of the top 3 vocalists of all time (let alone soul/ r&b). That seems to the the general consensus of these comments. The brother was BAD and so truly under rated as a vocalist. Damn!!!!!

[@maryjohnson5079]

Ollie and David were the best lead singer the Temptation had. Those two men had BEAUTIFUL voices ✝️🙏💕

[@PassDatHere]

Make no mistake about it, Ollie woodson was every bit as talented as David Ruffin and Dennis Edwards and i dont say that lightly...dynamic soulful singer... i have to keep it real i didnt realize until recently just how bad this brotha really was. i regret sleeping on him for all those years... he was one of the 10 best singers i ever heard.

[@motownfan3]

shawn moore I've seen all three and Ollie KICKED BUTT !!!!!!!

[@motownfan3]

+Carolyn Brown I had a chance to meet David got his autograph back in '82 and my wife and I took a photo with Dennis 2002 .... both were very nice guys.Never had the opportunity to meet Ollie,however as stated , I was able to see him perform several times in the 80's and 90's............ May he Rest in Peace. PS.My wife (recently passed) loved OLLIE...when he would sing Lady Soul and or Touch Me she would lose her mind :)

[@MrSilas-xo9np]

Ollie was a dynamic singer.

[@bettioljean-marie459]

+Mr Silas ..the best!!!

[@delirous8]

Ollie Woodson was the closest person that really had a likeness to David Ruffin. Dennis Edwards is cool but I prefered Ollie post David Rufffin.

[@teresagenus8157]

Gentlemen after my own heart that song I thk truely he meant it such a talented man Ollie.

[@vegasmitch1472]

REST Well 2 All those Original to this Line Up of Temps which i believe had 2 & a Half Originals. Mr. Richard Street was almost there since the Beginning. 2023 Mr. Otis & Mr. Ron are Still here!

[@quekelley5277]

You can’t buy that kind of 5 part harmony🔥 Ali was an underrated and under appreciated vocal beast. He was all soul. #ripaliwoodsonthegoatiestofallgoats

[@nathanscipio6148]

Ollie has always been my favorite Temp even tho he wasn’t an original! To me he was the talented voice and he wrote some very good songs!💯

[@h.robertcooper8478]

Truly live performance, no lip syncing, no auto-tune, no pre-recorded tracks. You don't get this from so called acts today.

[@brendarobinson1656]

How in the world do they sound so good live? Oh my goodness!

[@tobor58]

Real Chops... Good Moves.. Real Singing... no damn autotune. No foul mouthing.

[@vegasmitch1472]

Mr. Ollie Was My Favorite Lead of the Temps! David i Liked. Eddie & Dennis i Liked a Lot but Ollie hits them High Notes while He really has that Scruffy Voice!!

[@larryarrington2000]

This live performance with Ollie is outstanding; that are obviously doing their thing at very high level. Very good job fellas. Ollie will always be miss; the best lead singer of them all.

[@carolynhughes2598]

The pipes on that young man was outstanding. Music you can feel.

[@HoneyRena-lx8hn]

My dad use to play this song all the time. It was one of his favorites. Sadly, he passed away a year ago😢😔 Listening to this song bring back childhood memories of my dad and I sitting on the porch going through his record collection while listening to music. The good old days ❤️❤️

[@DorianGilmer]

Ali was a great guy--fun to hang with off-stage, a great singer with dynamic but cool stage presence, a great songwriter, a proud poppa (used to love being seen with his baby daughter in AC) ---that is until the big C entered the picture, which weakened his imune system as he battled throat cancer and then leukemia. Ollie was primed to be THE GREATEST of the Temptations lead singers, because (1) he could take the previous generation's songs (Lady Soul for example, which was covered by quite a few others) and make them his, and (2) he could write hits going forward (such as Treat Her Like A Lady). I pray that the Almight Creator will rid us of the plague of Drugs. R-I-P ALI-WOODSON

[@carolynwhite9975]

We miss you, Mr Woodson

[@kevind1931]

He hit all those notes and big changes. New respect for Ali-Ollie Woodson

[@disgurluvsmuzik]

Ok I see you Ollie. I miss talking to you at church and hearing you sing after offering. What a great voice. Give people their roses while their still alive.

[@JoeFlow88]

As Temps fans many of us like to compare and in my humble opinion, the only detriment to Ali's resume' is that he was "born too late." He is obviously very well known and respected by many but perhaps doesn't get the same recognition as David or Dennis because he sang in a later era for the Temps. Personally, I liked his voice the best out of all the lead tenors/baritones the Temps have had. Such a dynamic singer.

[@garymayfield5995]

I totally disagree

[@TB-ct2xw]

He is definitely a good and passionate singer, but still not of the same magnitude as David!

[@KarenPrice-g4u]

Ali Woodson, the best Temptations lead vocalist. David, Dennis and Ali each had their own style and capabilities, however, Ali was able to sing all of their songs. Rest in Love Ali, David and Dennis.

[@crescott2305]

So gifted!

[@jaiyabyrd4177]

It's 2022 and seeing this today is as magnificent as it was when originally done in the late 1980's. The sad thing is today there are NO singers in the U.S. or the world comparable to the Temptations. Thank God for video

[@suecox907]

Maybe they are just hiding.

[@ajstacks41510]

This sound could never be duplicated. Exceptional, beautiful and magical voices they were. Relatable or not you felt the passion. Artist today have no strength in their voices because they didn't go to church. Whereas 60s-70s artist did.

[@jaywright2660]

Ali Woodson one of the greatest soul singers ever!!

[@laguanataylor1047]

I miss hearing Melvin's deep baritone voice too, he is greatly and truly missed too!

[@bobdubolina]

Wish I could have been there! God Bless and Rest In Peace to those who have departed and those that remain! Olie was a unique talent!

[@drwalk7]

By far the greatest group this planet has ever seen....Impossible to duplicate..If anyone is trying to...GIVE IT UP!!!

[@itsanewyorkthang9553]

What a great lost . The talented and sexy , Ollie Woodson. That awesome voice !!! RIH Ollie, you will forever be missed.

[@jackieborden5041]

I am 76 years old and I love every song the Temptations made. R.I.P. all of u except Otis who is still with us.

[@vbwaverider1]

Not only is this great talent, but the message is 'right on'....and then...when you're dazzled...here comes another song for the 'Lady'....as a Southern Gentleman who plays the drums and loves to dance...this is Paradise...

[@donnis618]

Ollie was a force of nature!

[@mchilds319]

You ain't never lied.... Ollie was a beast.. My favorite other than Eddie Kendricks and David Ruffin.

[@whatconniesaid]

Lord have mercy I miss this man; got to see him perform in Miami three months before he passed. It was shocking! His voice was intact and so tight when he sang, "Is it still good to you?" to Jackee in a stage play. What a voice!

[@MrRayplumer]

Awesome lead with Mr. WOODSON. Wow! Perhaps the best vocal skills ever truly displayed on the planet.

[@checkerslane]

Ray Plumer He sounds just like David Ruffin

[@GarwinWayne]

+Checkers Lane BULLSHIT!!! Don't insult David Ruffin like that. If anything he trying to emulate him & Dennis Edwards as well.

[@eli4u2fly]

+GarwinEugene Wayne they are all unique and had beautiful voices

[@bryantelder5905]

Yup!!

[@Keepdapocket]

@@GarwinWayneyou’re right. Don’t insult David like that. David wished he could sing any song like Ollie or David. Classic doesn’t mean the best. Out of the three, David would be third. They give David respect because he was the first, but on stage, they would eat David up vocally because Ollie and Dennis can sing fast AND keep their power. David doesn’t have the power to keep up.

[@debeasibrown5407]

Ollie was the best Temptation lead singer! There I said it!!!

[@rosatyson7253]

No doubt about it.

[@braddfordy]

he was no push over but putting him ahead of king David is madness! ruff was the man

[@walid1416]

Both in my book ✨

[@dougmorton4947]

David could sing but he doesn't have this range!

[@ceeceetracey9839]

lolol crackin up at "there i said it"

[@mariankitagawa7525]

I don't think I've seen anyone move like these guys. So smooth so incredible with perfect syncing and timing.

[@marilyndantonio9502]

Look at these Temptations ... what fabulous voices, steps and stage presence. Ali/Ollie Woodson on lead vocals, Otis Williams, Ron Tyson, Melvin 'blue' Franklin and Richard Street. At this August 2013 date only Otis and Ron are alive. RIP, Temptations lineups featuring the best of the best.

[@patriciascott7901]

Ollie Woodson is the Best in my book. Love his style..

[@carolynbratton7827]

I personally thought Ollie was a better singer than David. He was on scale with Dennis

[@laguanataylor1047]

I miss hearing his voice, he is greatly and truly missed!

[@kuumi]

What an incredible voice!!

[@MrRayplumer]

Oli could couple high notes together like nobody i have heard on the planet.

[@darnellrandall6442]

Ollie Woodson was great! David, Eddie, and Paul are legends! David was David! Eddie was the best tenor ever! Paul was deep southern spiritual! As great as Ollie's voice was, he can never be compared to those three!

[@TokyoDan0]

It was way back (in 1974 I think) I was stationed at Wright Patterson AFB outside of Dayton Ohio, just back with my Japanese wife after a 3.5 year tour of Japan. Two of my all time favorite groups were playing at the some big concert hall: The Dramatics and the Temptations. I was a big fan of both but The Temps were my Gods. But I loved The Dramatics too. They were my second favorite. My wife, a big Soul and R&B fan loved both but thought the newcomers...The Dramatics were better. Of course we went to that concert and had 2nd row seats right in front of center stage. Perfect! I couldn't wait to see my wife's reaction when see saw The Temptations. The Dramatics came out first and just killed it. This was my first time to see them live (my 2nd to see The Temps. I saw them back in 1965 in Johnstown PA. when the Motown Review was touring the USA). I was so blown away by The Dramatics performance that I was wondering if The Temps could follow that up. My wife was blown away too as she had never seen such talent. The crowd went wild. Then it was time for The Temps. The stage was set up with a long wall of translucent paper. The band started. And The Temps came out through that paper wall just blowing everybody's mind. It didn't even take two minutes...My wife, her mind blown. yelled "My God! The Temptations are even better than The Dramatics. They are fantastic!" I proudly agreed.

[@Teresa-mu4kw]

September 2024!🎉 Beautiful music in those days!🎉

[@theronedawson3236]

They are the best singing male group.

[@ArtbyAtlas]

Daaamn, my guy's voice is amazing!

[@alicewalker8141]

So true!!! Someone should consult "UNSUNG" about documenting ALI-OLLIE WOODSI=ON'S STORY..WHATCHA THINK??? He was instrumental in bringing the Temps back tn the spotlight again.....

[@danbrown4090]

Grande Ollie e migliore formazione del gruppo...!! Temptations THE FUNK!!!

[@bertc2314]

Ali-Ollie Woodson on lead. Rest in Paradise, Mr. Woodson, Mr. Street, Mr. Franklin, and Mr. Raymond "Sting Ray" Davis bass singer. He replaced Mr. Franklin on the Temps' best-selling album of all time ("For Lovers Only) as Mr. Franklin was too ill to perform Also, Mr. Davis was a founding member of Parliament/Funkadelic including George Clinton.

[@CoreyRossArt]

Ollie woodson is amazing. damn!! Damn! first time ever hearing him. wow!

[@kathydavis1444]

Oh,my word...... absolutely incredible.....done died and gone to heaven,...❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@larrybutler8965]

I bought this album because this song somewhere in 1984-85 and as soon as I got it I recorded on a blanks cassette 90 minute one. And the other side I put Billy Ocean Caribbean Queen. Yeah I drove around on Hoot owl shift in the squad with this playing. One cold cold night me and my partner were riding deep in the snow listening to Ollie and Billy. And I always thought Ollie was bad to the bone. When he hit those hoo hoo hoooo notes I was hooked. And it seem like those notes were effortlessly coming from his body. It was hypnotic and soulful . And then Melvin would drop those heavy lows in there Otis and Richard and Ron would sing those sweet harmonies.. These were the best times .. and you just had to tune in and listen.. and Ollie just soared through the atmosphere with great ease. You guys rest in peace.. you gave us something beautiful. Thanks goodness someone was there to record it .. LB January 4, 2023 Wednesday night..

[@juiceynorris9587]

That's right thank goodness someone was recording 5 tall brothers over 6 ft that could sing & dance & fine as wine they got soul & superbad

[@randygoforth]

Loved the Temps!

[@jeffstewart7045]

Ollie Woodson, the last "great" Temptations lead vocalist...

[@kimberlygriffin6400]

It seemed like after Ollie got done with a mic, it would'nt work anymore, truly gifted. I hear he was a gentleman also, which endears him 2 the ladies. Treat her like a lady helped put a couple of katz n check.

[@angelahall1987]

Kimberly Griffin LOL!!!

[@patriciajackson7482]

I always loved to see Melvin and Otis dance, they always seemed truly happy and into it!!😍😍😍😍

[@sunkist811]

Ollie was a BAD BAD MAN, This was his song!

[@maninthemirror6456]

Really sad, the majority of these talented men have already passed over to the other side.They will always be remembered as the most entertaining group of all times. RIH Gentlemen.

[@jameswilliams9101]

Gone get it "Ollie" Best Singer with The Temptations

[@earvinlewis1]

I agree...my absolute fave

[@temptsfan2]

End of Treat Her Like a Lady demonstrate why they were the best group ever. Full sound and harmony are without equal.

I can't say nothing but superalatives for Olli,when first heard this song I was in Frankfurt, Germany. THE TEMPTATIONS HAD THE WORLD GROOVING,YES SIR THAT MAN HAD A VOICE HE FIT THE MOLD AS GREAT LEAD VOCALIST

I love The Temptations . Ollie Woodson is so Awesome as Lead singer. His voice is amazing. I Love David and Dennis they were great also . But Ollie is on a level of Greatness. After hear all the song he has song Wow. Awesome 👏🏽 David sound was great too . I was sad when he die.

[@Darckcloud73]

So I watch the Temptations movie like I always do once in a while. My 8 year old son actually watched it with me once about three months ago and he has since watched it about 10x and is now obsessed with all of their music. Goes to bed every night with the play list of Temptation songs and I love when he does his falsetto impression of Eddie Kendricks when he sings "We gonna leave all our troubles behind"and now the Supremes are forever the Primettes to him.

[@herbnevins1949]

Still don't know why Ali-Ollie wasn't in The Temptations movie

[@peggynogoodbymusicalwaysag4367]

It’s would ful. ❤❤Love it

[@jeffrreyconyers4784]

Strange, how he ascended the throne of lead singer and took over Ruffin's position to handle his songs with justice. And contributed his mark as co-writer of this song.

[@cbjrcher1]

This is my 3rd favorite Temptation lineup, 1st being the Original 5 and 2nd being when Dennis Edwards replaced David Ruffin. This group was doing some serious dancing in 1986!!

[@normaj.3305]

+cbjrcher1 I feel the same way, I really wish Dennis Edwards would rejoin the group now that three of these favorites are dead.

[@cbjrcher1]

+Norma Johnson - Harris Otis doesn't like Dennis, primarily his drug use

+Misia Denéa Indeed!! Something needs to be said concerning the Late Great Charlie "Cholly" Atkins who developed All of those Dynamite routines for them throughout their career , which were just as Famous as Most of the Songs themselves!! :-)

[@wuhaninstituteofvirology]

this lineup of the temptations (by the mid-80’s after decades of honing/perfecting their craft) = the best soul/R&B group performers of all-time

[@RashardCole]

The movie should did a part for the 80s because Ollie was the Man

[@jaelyenharrison6888]

love this song. i would sing this song and dance around to this song. never too young for old school ever. love to hear music like these if folks stop singing about getting money, drugs, thugging, etc....

[@San47di]

Ollie ran into health issues with a 1st diagnosis of throat cancer. Otis never really fired him, but rather Ollie took time out. As he gradually regained health, Ollie started attempting other ventures that didn't require the actual extremely "hard" life of being on the road & not having ready access to his physicians. Otis always welcomed Ollie back whenever he was available. Ollie's voice was like no other. His style & tone gave me chills like none other, other than Jackie Wilson. :-)

[@Duane-ye3vs]

Powerful voice variance of the best lead singer that Temptations had.

[@rickydavis1747]

Beautiful upload of two great songs by the temps. If I one question it would be to Melvin and Otis and the question would be: How Does It Feel To Do Something You Love Doing, For Your Entire Life? Man oh Man, the reason they don't make music like this anymore is because they can't.

[@motownfan3]

Go Ollie ...you were the "MAN" !!!!!!!!!!
