I didn't even know how to pronounce their name!
But wait a minute Marv, i thought you were a lifelong dedicated Supremes fan . You mean to tell me that a hardcore Supremes follower such as yourself, when eagerly listening to each new record by them , never once paused and thought , "wait a minute , I'm hearing more than The Supremes on here" ......
What sense would it make for Mary to talk about not being on two of the Supremes biggest hits, but take her proper credit for being on the album "Merry Christmas" which is basically a novelty album! She doesn't have to try to be clever, all she need do is what she has always done and that is tell the truth!
Hee hee, your protest makes me think maybe i'm on to something . Mary seems to be aware that there is a new video of their old Christmas tune and to be a part of the limelight seems to me to be trying too hard in her wording to "imply" that its all three of them on the record , such that while telling some truth , not necessarily telling the WHOLE truth.
