The only time I can remember her singing it was when she would sing the lead with Cindy and Scherrie on backgrounds.

Anytime Luke. Mary is one that has sung a very wide variety of songs in her shows over the years. She changes up her set lists for each type of show she is presenting, i.e. Symphony, Up Close/Jazz, Pop/Supremes etc. She's done a number of songs recorded by the Supremes in the 70s. I'd love to have her include "Piano In the Dark" again and "Been Around the World [[Looking for My Baby).

It’s easy to change your set list when all you have are covers of other artists songs. Nobody is expecting her hits since she really never sang lead on a hit record.

Thanks so much. Cindy was really getting into it. As a solo artist, Mary does an outstanding job on Nathan.

That must be one of the many reasons why she has remained a megastar for all these years whilst her former colleagues have struggled to scale such heights!

If anyone wants to know why the post-Jean supremes [[lower case 's' is a typo but staying due to its appropriateness) fizzled this clip answers the question.
