this reached number 1 in the US as well – earning the song the attention of the US equivalent of Popular:

TOTP Watch: The performance of this survives (just about… it’s the worst print of any pop performance that I’ve ever seen!). It comes from the edition transmitted on the 8th of October 1964. The Supremes also performed ‘Where Did Our Love Go?’. Also in the studio that week were; Cliff Bennett & The Rebel Rousers, Matt Monro, Sandie Shaw. The host was Pete Murray.

We owe the survival of this clip to the first few minutes of this edition being found at the end of a tape of the BBC’s 1964 Election coverage!

is this their horniest record? supremes obv did sweeping dramatic anguish well – is this their biggest (only?) hit that’s less ‘plz to stop hurting me’ and more ‘plz to start hurting me’?

I once brought the Hitsville USA compilation home to play for my parents and this was the only song my father didn’t like – too many ‘baby’s – and I agree with him. I like the Supremes when they are less sugary, as in “Stop In the Name of Love” or “You Keep Me Hanging On”…

That stereo effect isn’t on the original, must be a remixed version you heard. Great record, though you’re right that there are much finer Supremes moments. ‘Where Did Our Love Go’ is my personal favourite.
