Do believe this song should have peaked higher than #23!

Hubby and were at Great Adventurers Amusement Park, NJ seeing an outdoor. WHOOOO was sitting in front of us but Ms. Ross and her 3 little girls and a man. I kept on saying to hubby THAT'S DIANA, THAT'S HER. He said NO IT WASN'T. Of course, later on, he told me it was her but didn't want me to bother her. I was too much in shock to even wave at her or tap her on her shoulders.

Nope, they were indeed The Supremes already. I bought the single as a kid. I believe it may have cracked the Top 20 but did not become a huge hit; that was coming right around the corner with "Where Did Our Love Go". This is the best of their Pre-Major-Success records in my opinion.

One of the greatest songs of the 60s. Highly underrated. Very special. Well-done rendition. .

Watch Diana start singing at 1:33. Those were the days when you got the real voice. No "Lip syncing", No "voice altering". Just pure, honest, VOCALS.

🥰 Yes...Loved this song way back then....Still Love It Today.💞 I was a senior in high school when this wonderful song became a Popular Hit.💞

My brother bought this single and we both played it on the stereo over and over.

This was a fabulous record that should have given the Supremes their first #1 single but Motown was caught unawares with it and couldn't get the promotion behind it that was warranted for a veteran act finally at last breaking smooth. But I don't know anyone who heard this who didn't think the Supremes were poised at last for a monster career. Thanks for the terrific edit and the visuals.

The Funk Brothers really made this song great!

Mark....yes you CAN say "supremely"...(*smile). Thank you, my friend!!!

Florence Ballard is very gorgeous, such a shame that she never got a chance to lead.

And now a treat,, ladies take it away with your fine self’s, soaring through those notes with grace and ease. Simply amazing girls! What taste, style, that choreography marvelous talent, and beauty. Love, Bill. As we well know they are Supreme. This reminds me when I first met my future wife. She just kinda ignored me at first. She didn’t know I’d picked her out already. Nearly forty years ago now.

I clicked on this video ten years ago and became an instant Mosogotam fan. Just found out he died of Covid in April of 2020. Rest in peace and thanks for all the joy you've brought to all us Motown fans!

One of their earliest and best augmented by well considered remix- nicely done. Love happy snappy songs such as this framed by such incredible talent, charm, and loveliness. Diana's voice is truly incredible even after all these years, incomparable.

I could live on this song throughout the night.Miss Ross, you sing to the discarded segments that rise. We hear and sing and dance with you.

In this early song you can really hear Flo and Mary, sometimes they over-power the lead, I love it! - As time went on their backgrounds were slowly tuned down and at times barely could hear them - awful shame.

I agree mosogotam should be recruited by Motown ( amongst others...) to remix a good deal of their catalogue.

Love your extended mixes, mosogotam, and I think this is your best! I'm old enough to remember when "Lovelight" first came out by an unknown new group, The Supremes. This song became one of my favorites and I actually bought the 45 in late 1963. The one bad thing about Motown records back then - they were too short! "When I'm Gone" by Brenda Holloway was just over 2 minutes and "Heatwave" by Martha and The Vandellas not much longer. Well, you solved that problem! Thanks!

Awesome extension John.......heard somewhere that the Four Tops were on this recording also doing back up

The girls, as well as HDH, had tried and tried for a hit. This one came out in '63, one year before their first hit Where Did Our Love Go. This should have been the first.

How absolutely beautiful for what blacks endured in my country as well as my own people.It's ashame the country of my my birth with is so amazing one has to fight for their human rights and dignity.

I was eleven years old. My parents had given me my first transistor radio ( it was the equivalent of being given a smart phone now; it was so important for a kid to have one). One night, soon after, I was hiding under my blanket, in the dark, with my earphone in and I heard Cousin Brucie for the first time. I was stunned when he sent greetings to , "all you kids listening secretly, hidden under your blankets." I was so thrilled; I felt like I was a part of some family or club. Then he played this song and during the musical break, he kept roaring after the voice on the record. it was one of those nights I will never forget, but it was months before I found out what this song was and who performed it. Cousin Brucie had played a list of records and didn't tell me which song was which.

My 1st time hearing this song. Going to blast it in my car in the morning on my way to work. 🤘

WE LOVE SONG .... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

As a man that happens to be, I hear your pain and my people sing with you! SING IT. And my people now have marriage and we're with you!
