@@davidsherbourne3161 Thank you. That was undoubtedly one of the most ignorant comments I ever read in some time. White people were a major consumer of Soul records. Why do you think Berry Gordy strongly encouraged a pop sound laced with Soul into the Motown sound? Motown needed a white audience in order to gain mass appeal. This is common knowledge. And guess what? Motown SUCCEEDED because of it. Thanks to Motown grooming these legendary acts, when they matured and decided to evolve in their sound, they took black and white audiences with them for that creative ride which opened the door to more grittier soul and funk acts to become mainstream. The Philadelphia sound( Harold Melvin and the Blue notes, The Spinners, The Ojays, Rolls Royce etc...) is an excellent example of this. Then of course disco finished it off and you had massive white consumption of this incredible music because both whites and blacks knew good songs when they heard them. I really get annoyed when the race element just gets carelessly tossed out there without serious thought.

David sings with emotion. You cant help to feel it in heart and soul. Something these so called "soul" singers should learn.

Motown in the early 60's. THAT was the best EVER! I'm a white guy that didn't like it back then. I get it now. The best music EVER!

You just expressed what Barry Gordy Jr was tryna do by establishing Motown...having music move people's hearts to see past color & realize how silly & unproductive racism is....

I truly, truly enjoyed listening to David Ruffin's blistering songs, and I truly wished that he never allowed drugs to become a part of his psychic; the man could really blow. Despite his addiction and personal inner battles with his self, his vocals expressed his passion for singing in every song he sang during his musical career with the mighty Temptations! R.I.P., David. Your music and your voice will always be remembered. Thank you for the post.

This song is one of the finest moments of the 70's.What a crying shame this man departed this Earth so soon.

What a tremendous talent! His voice range was truly amazing. He was in the outstanding class of singers such as Barry White, Teddy Pendergrass, Luther Vandross, Al Green and Eddie Holman. We miss you David, there's never been anyone quite like you and your talents. You left us too soon. RIP Mr. Ruffan

I've watched this video a hundred times. But this time I witnessed him switching hands with the mic at the blink of eye and taking his voice to another level at the same time. That's talent !!!

My brothers Cremation was today. My son hugged me, that meant everything as he’s not speaking to me. Guess what song was playing walking into the Crematorium? Yes it It was The Long and Winding Road, I was very emotional. I’m glad it’s over now. Just worried about his wife and how she will cope. She’s not going to stop working, I’m glad to say. It will keep her going.

I was fortunate enough to grow up with this loving kind of sensible music that gave people trust in one another. Look how it inspires decency in the dancers on the video, nice decent good looking folk compared to the self loving arrogant ugly generation we have today
