I can't even explain what this song does and means to me and my life, sitting with my dad for hours listening to music and this song was one of his all time favorites, when i hear this voice i feel like i can't breathe i can't take a breath i have so much sorrow in my heart in my soul i lost my daddy and i can't feel better i can't figure out how to do it without him, thank you dad for showing me this great music at such a young age i miss you every day i love you big guy RIP

What's never been mentioned or hardly ever discussed is how the mighty Four Tops were the first group ever at the time to land SIX straight singles from one album onto the Billboard's Pop and Soul charts.

Really one of the greatest songs ever written in my opinion, and dude just blows it out of the water. That last line about the windows being painted black, and he'll wait right there til she comes back, it's so haunting.

[halogenie]

i listened to this song aged 13 and I thought it was the greatest classic ever and still do aged 57!

I remember dancing my arse off to this in 1967, am I really that old now?!! The Sixties = the best decade for me. Thanks for taking me back 👍🏻

[LennyBoy]

When we were kids, and my Beloved Mother God Rest her soul, and when she played this song, we kids would go crazy dancing. I hope that Levi Stubbs RIP is singing this song to her personally.

Brilliant vocals on every single record...Four Tops were absolutely incredible. I am so glad I grew up in the 60s and 70s...each song reminds me of my life back then. God bless each and every one of them...Levi...omg..you had the very best voice, such feeling..the Master! It is the Soundtrack of my life...♥️

It’s a gloomy rainy day here today and it made me think of this great song. It’s impossible to listen to it without moving to the beat. RIP Levi

[RalphCramden-tmgi]

Levi Stubbs knew how to deliver. Four Tops. One of the best singing groups of all time.

I grew up listening to the Four Tops during the 60s - I just love the instrumentation and voices on this tune - I can just imagine how the dancers danced to this one - absolutely superb, but too short!!!
