Talent and a voice like Levi Stubbs only come around once in a life time...So glad it was in my life time...God bless Levi and the Four Tops...

Hard to believe this was recorded in 93. They were still excellent. Nothing like this talent around in 2023

There has never been, nor will there ever be, a group like the Four Tops. It's April 2020 and Abdul "Duke" Fakir is the only one left....we need to cherish him.

Same with the Temptations and Otis Williams.

Levi - genius talent - who stuck by his superb Co-singers faithfully.

Obie Benson was the smoothest dancer of the all! Loved the Tops!

OMG, the greatest Motown Group Ever with Levi never selling his group out for money. Levi had the love of his group and the real Motown Sound!

I got to see them in 1997. A dream of mine come true. The place was packed. No empty seats! These guides were professionals and great entertainers. But most of all, they were gentlemen. Not many left today.

Levi’s voice really grew some grit as he got older. This rendition is one of the best they have. Thanks for sharing.

2012, and Levi was the joker of the day with the greatest Motown Songs of our time! Thank Duke Fakir for keeping the 4 Tops alive in 2022!

Love the four tops

Truly amazing !

The harmonies were first class and Levi's vocals world class

They sang together for 40 years. So Smooth.

I love Levi's voice. So powerful, so much compassion, so much soul. The enjoyment of all the group members during this performance is truly remarkable. It's a great one for sure. It made me stand, dance and sing along. even though I can't sing for beans. Wonderful. Just wish they could go on forever. Thanks to You Tube, they can. And Thank You to the Four Tops. One of the greatest, longtime, groups ever. Thank you for soooooo many memories. Always will be a fan and passing this on to my grandkids. Doesn't get much better than this.

These guys defined soul for this 12 - year old kid in the northern plains listening to Top 40 AM from 1000 miles away on a tinny earphone in bed at night. Their passion and, well, soul grabbed a permanent place in my heart. Thank you, gentlemen.

Levi Stubs! He was so loyal to his high school friends to the end! Singing for 40-50 years! No one today can understand the love the 4 Topps had for each other, just trying to move out of the hood! Make some money, support a family.

Levi Stubbs RIP ! You and the guys gave the world such great music !

The Tops are so GREAT, no words can ever explain!

The very best, dont ever stop because this is real soul

This song has very deep and special meaning to me . Thank you Four Tops for being the sound track of my youth

A true superstar group. Thank God they never broke up.

He has one voice that stands out

I know Levi is older on this video but his voice sounds great here

What a wonderful group and memory,,they were great

Levi Stubbs you're a legend

THANKS GOD FOR LETTING US ENJOY THEM BEFORE CALLING THEM HOME.🙏

Fell in Love with these GUYS 60yrs ago when I saw them perform at Roberts Show Club in Chicago. One of Motown's Best, and One Of Worlds Best!!🎵🎶💞

They're fabulous. This song takes me back to the 60s for a few minutes. Priceless.

Levi Stubb's could have sang the phone book, and people would buy a ticket to hear it. I know I would!

Thing is, Seadel, this music is timeless. Those of us in my age group were so darn fortunate to grow up with the '50's and '60's and on to present day. I'm 71 and have seen over 30 bands, performers in the past three years, from Alt j and The Kongos to Boz Scaggs, EWF and my favorite, Steely Dan. In 1979 or so we saw the Tops and The Temps and that concert in Hyannis is indelible in my musical memory.

April 2024, still listening. Wonderful timeless music.

Of all the fantastic Motown acts that there were, the Four Tops were the absolute kings!. A timeless song, from when music had proper soul. R.I.P Levi Stubbs, gone but never forgotten!

Levi, one of the best voices of all time, wish some people could live forever.

I'm 31 , I love the four tops. I love the "repeat after me" part . I'm sorry but this crowd doesn't deserve this amazing music. if I was there I would be up singing along.

One of the best Tops tracks. Levi's vocals are amazing on the original and here. Great tune.

Levi, Lawrence, Obie, Duke....no further words are necessary

So lucky to have had this music in my teens & still....thank you 4tops 😍

Thank you four tops for the memories. They just don't make em like this anymore. Due to social media we will never see talent like this again. It is all gone!!! Thank God that I grew up in this time period. The sweet smell of perfume on a beautiful girl on a date, the taste of a good burger and a shake on a Friday night with the top down is gone forever. Oh how I miss just setting around and talking.Thank you Levi an the tops. God help us all.
