I love the ending of the song where they all get in like Sly & the Family did on "Dance to the Music" Which Otis said was an inspiration for their new sound.

well they were both written by Barrett Strong & Norman Whitfield, if you noticed The Supremes "You Can't Hurry Love" & Martha & The Vandellas "Im Ready For Love" are similar and HDH wrote those and The Temptations "All I Need" has a sililar beat to the Supremes and Vandellas songs i just mentioned

Have you noticed which has a part where appears the orchestration on this song? This part with the orchestration reminds very much the song "I've heard it through the Grapevine", recorded by Marvin Gaye for Motown/Tamla in 1968. Compare these two songs and feel the harmonies.

RIP Norman Whitfield and a speedy recovery for Barrett Strong

It was with this song that began the Temptations' psychedelic soul period, with the advent of the wah-wah guitars.

CLoud 9 has the Tempts switching leads and the Tempts vocals,the best thing about Love CHild is Diana Ross' voice,the Tempts song has more of a group sound.The leads and Harmonies of CLoud 9 are great,that's why

The Temptations are great Motown group. My favourite hits are Cloud Nine, Don't Look Back and I Can't Get Next to You. They're a gifted soul legends. I saulte the Temps.

BECAUSE CLOUD NINE IS A BETTER SONG
