Thr "Classic 5" was always the best lineup with David, Otis, Eddie, Paul & Melvin

When he says “I’ve got so much honey…” and does that collar flick, it’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. Wonderful song

[demetriusbrown]

The Temptations first #1 hit with Ruffin on lead. They took this song and made it an all time classic. 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️🐐🐐🐐🐐 Forever the greatest group of all time.

[renettejones]

I love this song. And I’m in my thirties. Forever a classic

There was nobody like David 😌 Ego is the devil!

[leehafner]

David Ruffin was a wonderfully talented and dynamic...

[thomaslewis]

It was released on December 21st 1964 my girl

[anonamos]

David Ruffin had "it". If we could figure out what "it" was and bottle it, we'd all be rich!

Smokey created the voice ego ways. Whitfield added to it. They elected him to be leader of compositions. But he left his mark along with a legacy forever with the Temps..

The smooth unforgettable tenor voice of Otis Williams 😊
 (born Otis Miles Jr.; October 30, 1941)
is an American second tenor/baritone singer.
He is occasionally also a songwriter and a record producer. Williams is the founder and last surviving original member of the Motown vocal group The Temptations,  a group in which he continues to perform; he also owns the rights to the Temptations name.
Becoming interested in music as a teenager, Otis Miles Jr. adopted his mother's maiden name for his stage name, and as Otis Williams put together a number of singing groups. These groups included Otis Williams and the Siberians, the El Domingoes, and the Distants. In 1959,
The Distants scored a local hit, co-written by Williams and their manager/producer Johnnie Mae Matthews, called "Come On", with lead vocals by Richard Street. Later Distants recordings were not as successful, and after an offer from Berry Gordy of Motown Records,
Williams and his friends/bandmates Elbridge "Al" Bryant and Richard Street quit the Distants. Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams from The Primes later joined Williams, Bryant, and Franklin to create the Elgins, who signed to Motown in March 1961 as
"The Temptations", after being told another group was already using that name.
The Temptations became one of the most successful acts in soul music over the course of nearly five decades, during which singers such as David Ruffin,  Dennis Edwards, former Distant Richard Street,  Damon Harris,  Ron Tyson,  Ali-Ollie Woodson,  Theo Peoples,  Ray Davis and former Spinners singer G. C. Cameron have all been members. As a member of the Temptations, he sings
The Temptations biggest selling tracks include: 
My Girl, and 
(I Know) I'm Losing You, among many others.
The groups have won four Grammy Awards, and have been nominated for nine.
Although he has served the longest tenure in the Temptations, Williams rarely sings lead, focusing instead on his role as the group's leader and organizer, and as the background "baritone in the middle". Some examples are, The Smokey Robinson and Eddie Kendricks written track "Don't Send Me Away" from the LP The Temptations with a Lot o' Soul (1967) and the intro on the early group song "Check Yourself" (1961).
Most notably, rare showcases for Williams singing lead are: "This Guy's in Love with You" from the 1968 albums Live at London's Talk of the Town and Diana Ross & The Supremes Join the Temptations and The Norman Whitfield-penned tune "I Ain't Got Nothing" from 1972's All Directions
Williams has provided non-singing (spoken word) contributions to some Temptation songs, including: "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" (1968, a hit duet with Diana Ross and Eddie Kendricks sharing the lead vocals),
"I'm the Exception to the Rule", from the album Sky's the Limit
(The Temptations album) (1971) which features leads from both Eddie Kendricks and Dennis Edwards,
During the opening verse of "Masterpiece" (1973), and
"For Your Love", which is done in a medley with "You Send Me"
(led by Ali-Ollie Woodson) on the For Lovers Only album (1995).

I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
When it's cold outside
I've got the month of May
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way

My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl

I've got so much honey
The bees envy me
I've got a sweeter song
Than the birds in the trees
Well, I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way

My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl
My girl
Ohh ohh
Hey hey hey

Hey hey hey
Oh yeah

I don't need no money, fortune, or fame
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim
Well I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way

My girl, my girl, my girl
Talkin' 'bout my girl, my girl, talkin' 'bout my girl
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl
I've even got the month of May with my girl
Talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout, talkin' 'bout
