I think so too, however this was a record that was perfect from beginning to end. We all know that The Temptations could sing the phone book and get a hit. But I would no more want them to release My Girl with Paul, nor David singing "Don't Look Back". Perfect is as perfect does.........in short all of the classic five plus Dennis, Ali, Theo, Richard, Barrington, Damon,Glenn & Ron have left their identifiable and indelible mark on some stone classics........Bruce, GC, Louis not so much so......

I thought Smokey, et al, had written My Girl for the Miracles

i believe that smokey had the temps in mind when he wrote it,otis says that they were in a club when smokey told david that he had a song for him and the song was-my girl.

I thought Paul was a great lead. Could have done everything - without the histrionics and the big star stuff. He could have carried a lot of what they did.
