What songs were never performed live? Or at least as much as we know. Or maybe performed briefly but no bootleg versions and not on any released sets

Buttered Popcorn - guessing this was but no record of it
Some things you never get used to
Composer
No matter what sign - true they did lip sync on Ed. Wonder if ever live in a stage show?
Auto sunshine
Where do I go from here

Surrender
Reach out I'll be there - didn't she do this in Return to Love or some of her recent Greatest Hits tours?
You're a special part of me
Don't know my love
Sleepin - there's a story of Ron millers saying she sang in Vegas
Sorry doesn't always make it right
I thought I took a little time
One love in my lifetime- sources say this was part of the Evening w DR lp but cut
Getting ready for love
You're love is so good for me
You got it
Top of the world
Lovin Livin givin - supposedly in her show
What you gave me
My old piano
One more chance
Work that body

Automatically Sunshine was performed in 1973 [[JML) and 1974 [[MSC) as part of the hits medley -- both in Japan. I think a full version was performed on UK television, but I can't remember which show.

Reach Out I'll Be There is on youtube. I think I was at one of her concerts and she did Lovin Livin and Givin

Glad you said that about Automatically Sunshine. I seem to recall it was sung on TOTP but it was so long ago now, I am not sure

Diana did indeed include LLG in her Radio City NYC setlist in Sept '78

“Some Things You Never Get Used To” was in the live act very briefly in the summer of ‘68. “Forever Came Today” was also in the act for a very short time in March/April 1968.

As much as I love "Forever Came Today," with it's very complicated musical charts, I can see why a live performance of this atmospheric recording might not be easy to duplicate in person.

"Work That Body" was a part of Diana's setlist at Central Park; she truncated it after the first few seconds with a terse "Stop it" as she noted a disturbance in the crowd.

Her 1982 UK tour was called work that body as it was in the show and a UK top 10 hit first concert I ever saw

I saw Diana Ross do "Work that Body" during her 1982 and 83 world tours. It was one of the highlights of the show. She had everyone in the Arena exercising. "Getting Ready for love" was part of her 1979 tour. It was edited out of her HBO special.

Has she ever sung in performance any of songs she did with Marvin?

"Buttered Popcorn" and "He's 17" were in the live act in the early days. I wouldn't be surprised if a live "Popcorn" is sitting in the vaults.

"One Love In My Lifetime" was performed in full on an episode of "The Midnight Special", and it appears in a shortened version in the "An Evening With" television special.

The medley with AUTOMATICIALLY SUNSHINE is also on their live album recorded in Japan.

When I saw her in 1977, she sang ONE LOVE... in between TOUCH ME IN THE MORNING and LOVE HANGOVER.

Somebody told me that THE SUPREMES did "Where Do I Go From Here" on The Nancy Wilson Show". I didn't see it myself, but I remember being told so.
