    In retrospect, what would have been a real ear, eye and memory catcher is this: as Diana moves further in the foreground, the final notes of Someday diminish to a whisper and a new note sounds. The cameras focus on Mary and Cindy who simply sing in unison 'Come with me .. up the ladder to the roof', with hands raised aloft to heaven. They exit, one stage right, one stage left, leaving Diana who extends her hands forward to the audience and intones 'Reach out and touch..make this world a better place if you can.' Mary and Cindy re-enter, stand to Diana's left and right. She joins them arm in arm and together they take their final bow.
    Now that would have been show business and would have piqued interest in the new song each would release as Diana Ross, solo star and the [new] Supremes.

    That would've been fantastic if either of those songs had been completed at that point. Honestly, it might have been an excellent move to have the new Supremes single and the new Diana Ross single ready by the time of the exit so that a debut like this would be possible. But that's too much creativity to expect from Motown.
