    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.

    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.

    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.

    "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.
