"MEMORIES"-THE TEMPTATIONS

[@charlottefentress9022]

This song here...take you back to sweet pure innocent memories of a safe space in time❤️😭before all the hurt heartache and chaos of this world today😩

[@petermeyer5626]

A masterpiece Dennis Edwards. RIP.

[@rhondarhonda3452]

Walking home from school…. Anderson Junior High, 1966. Rest In Peace Eugene 🌹

[@callmecarmella]

That little scratching noise at the beginning....this generation will never know or understand #memories

[@carrienixon6663]

Yesssss. Beautiful sad soul ballad. ❤

[@shawnsmith6573]

Quite possibly my favorite Temptations song. Dennis Edwards put his stamp on this one.

[@ladyblue1729]

My sister would play The Temptations' Christmas Album every Christmas but she would always end it with the song, "Memories!" For years, I thought that song was at the end of their Christmas album! The music at the end of "Memories," also plays a little Christmas tune, "Ringing the bells," I think it's called. Does anyone else notice that? What a perfect fit for this song! Anyway, she passed on years ago but I will always think of her during this time of the year, the soulfulness she brought to Christmas and the joy she brought to my life. Love you, Diane. I know you are an angel busy in heaven and watching out for your little sis.

[@bankman58]

Thank you for sharing that “memory” with us about your sister, Lady Blue. May God bless her soul and just hold on to those precious “memories” of her!

[@ojmcgold]

This song takes me back to growing up in NC with my family and being so happy. It takes me back to a time when life was so much easier and laughter with old school friends and neighbors were genuine.

[@charlottefentress9022]

Yes yes!

[@iamiwasthenaiiamnow6846]

There's nothing like looking at an album on a turntable turning and the needle mesmeringly progressing to the center as you reminisce "memories".

[@sweetlynn812]

[@livelikeitshows1802]

“Memories sweet memories of days gone by. They make me cry.” I was a little kid when this came out but I loved it. I often wondered what I would feel if I heard it when I was older. Now I know. 😢

In 1975 I was 13 years old and in love. This song brings back memories.

[@MelvinHux]

In 1975 I was 22 years old and in the shut down of that dam war V Nam that still haunts me to this day but this music makes it somewhat easy.

[@edilbertofabre9269]

A very heavy and powerful ballad. This literally produced moist in my eyes everytime it is played.

LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!! Takes me way back. Thank you.

[@urmamaisafool]

Talk about memories, hearing that needle touch the album and the scratching and thinking back to my high school sweet heart, and the Nova filled with smoke and laughter and a future filled with so much promise. Playing one hand touch football in the street and putting tight spirals to my little brother into places others wouldn't even think of. Walking off the court with another brother as we talked trash to another group on their own after hosing them all day. Thanks Butch and Ricky

[@manuelcampuzano558]

[@11281942]

These songs from the Temptations bring back memories we had while we were fighting the war overseas. Some of us made it back; some made it back but are still fighting the war in their mind. But this song is specifically dedicated to those who did not made it back. God Bless and Keep you until we meet again.

[@tyroneparks8754]

The quintessential male vocal group has to be The Temptations by sheer volume of their albums & songs not to mention their longevity. The talent that has comprise this group , the song writers and producers that have worked with them over the years is staggering. I love ballads, Memories, Lady Soul,and Stay are up there and are a Masterpiece.
