Fox News
On Dec. 21, 1964, Motown group The Temptations released "My Girl," which is considered to be one of the greatest love songs ever recorded. They received praised from the Beatles and The Supremes.
"I remember being in the studio, and we heard ‘My Girl’ for the first time," Otis Williams, the group’s sole surviving founding member, told Fox News Digital. "Look, I always tell people that the one thing that’s constant in life is change. I try not to knock anybody in their endeavors wanting to make their bones in show business. But I have to say this, I’m not impressed with some of the stuff I hear on the radio today." Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.
"I was in the control room where Smokey was doing the producing, and I said, ‘Smoke, I don’t know how big a record this is going to become.’ Then we were at the Apollo. We got telegrams from the Beatles, Berry Gordy, The Supreme and Jules Podell, the guy who ran the Copacabana. Still have those four telegrams hanging up in my home today."
