Right. Great casting.

I agree Leon and Terron Brooks did a damn good job playing these two legends

Right it took me awhile to adjust to what the temptations actually looked like😂😂😂😂

@@annarozalyn1609 fr lol

To grow up in the 60s and 70s when these brothers were at their height was amazing. They were our super heroes!

ItsQuita2u ItsQuita2u Eddie was always like that. Very reserved. Dave was always the outspoken one.

Lmaooo I was looking for this comment 😂

😊

TRUTH, The Death of Soul music when they passed.SIP

David and Eddie died apart

They r legendary! Why david looks high, & speech slurred somewhat even though he's articulate!💗💗💗RIH to 2 beautiful singing BROTHERS🙏🙏💗💗💗

Stfu

Yep Eddie was the one who got David back in the group after David was kicked out after getting into drugs.

I also love the way Paul dance and song from his ❤️!

Yess

He’s talking like that because his nose is stuffed with cocaine

Classy? He was a drug abuser and he hit women from what I read. But his talent can’t be denied

Cool, smart cats.

Nah his voice was soft like Michael Jackson when he started smoking his voice got really deep

I've heard some of Eddie's less popular (but still great) songs where he sings in his tenor, not his falsetto. He sounds amazing using both styles.

Yes. Sort of like Prince who spoke with a baritone voice, but would sing soprano.

No doubt, as someone who also listens to Pantera, if you truly have music in your soul , The Temptations surely strike that chord in you ,amazing voices ,all of them.

He sings in his falsetto voice

@MsLady328 yesss

You're not alone im the same way

Same girl same I really love old music and old eras 😍 temps are my favorite group 🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️

Same here. TheTemptations story is the saddest story I have ever heard

same here and I'm 18 I love old soul music

Lisa Ingram same here I love old soul music

I never understood why David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks never became a duo after leaving The Temptations. I could have seen Kendricks leaving earler after The Temptations refused to readmit Ruffin in 1968, but definitely after Kendricks left the group in 1971. By the time they joined forces in 1987, it was way past their primes.

To. Handsome

Mem

They music lives on

The interviewer sucked in the beginning

😂😂😂😂😂😂 David was high than a mf

Demetric Flemings

sharrell86 So true

I thought the same thing

Well let's not forget the reason why the rest of the temps fired him because of his selfishness thinking he deserves more royalties since he was the lead singer. Things like taking his own fancy limo to performances and wanting more attention on him,even as going as far as wanting to change the groups name to David Ruffin and The Temptations. Even with his drug abuse he would often miss rehearsals and meetings. The last straw was when he didn't show up to a performance for Dean Martins daughter. But in the end he learned his ways and will be missed.

+Weisenthal Trollhunter I read it in a biography...

Yes he had a very unique voice!

TRUTH

Unquestionably true!!!

No doubt about it , If Not The Two Greatest.

I loved Dennis Edwards voice as well.

Love, Love Love David Ruffin🎀💝🎀!!! Since I Was 5 Years Old! I Consider Myself As One Of The Original Temptations Biggest Fans🎀🌹💝🎀!!!

Otis said it's on youtube his interview that they wanted the movie to be more and they messed up with alot

That's what I was just saying, don't believe the hype. Because David, has always been a class act, as this interview showed him and Eddie, still that way.✌

David was human and I met him also . These men are my heroes and I would hope that people would understand that a movie is just that (not you Bro Rob) and take time to do research and check out Dennis Edwards interviews here on Y.T.

Meeting him once of course he's going to be seem kind. Otis actually knew him so I believe the movie.

shut do hell up girl

+jay jay Damn learn how to check your spelling dumbass.

Kristen Naidu you're cute, cutie.

Whats ur email sexy

I know I think they were good friends that's good A lot of people were jeoulus of David he just didn't know it.

David anyway, my guy Eddie looks kinda rough on this interview, maybe he was just tired.

Kevin Richmond o

Kevin Richmond Paul Melvin no Dennis

I love them..But I don't know about paradise..A tree is known by the fruit it bears..Harsh but Bible...

Two of my favorite singers

Richiegems ...really the interviewers were just awful and insincere. David and Eddie were so nice and polite.

Yes I never looked at him in this light until now 🥰😍

Really gorgeous man through and through ❤

David looks a little high and bored as hell but still so super cool😂Love that man❤

@@kathyhayden2499

@Lady Angie. You have hit it square on, these men were of the anointed class clearly. They spoke of their spiritual roots and that is what having soul is. The anointed being human in human form go through what they go through, but the spirit is clearly with them. Thank you for your observation.

TRUTH INDEED AMEN

Lady Angie Well said!!!

Amen!! I, myself am highly offended and pissed that these people treated these royal icons in such a shitty way! How dare they!! No respect for true legends!! There will never be a repeat of those groups or time! They truly had talent and class! Smh RIP Kings

'Unfortunately, the interviewers didn't seem to understand that they were in the presence of music royalty.' So right!

Cerucir i know, they were so handsome and funny

eddie has the most sexiest smile and they both had so much swagg.❤❤

They loved each other. They were the best of friends. They supported each other.

@@willopam9356 They had so much love and respect for each other. Wonderful chemistry.

yes he was!

ghgurl0805 I agreee

ghgurl0805 Thought am the only one who noticed 😊 And since everyone seemed to be talking about David, kept my mouth shut hehe.

@SLady328 I'm with you. Eddie was a cigarette smoker but not a druggie. Now Ruffin might have been on a little something but he was coherent...lol!!

that little pip squik of a guy looked nothing like EDDIE KENDRICKS A shame too That if OTIS had any choosing HE GOT that actor so HE wouldn't be overshadowed HE WAS intimidated by EDDI' S GOID LOOKS AT THE TIME READ THE TEMPTATIONS HIS BIOGRAPHY HE WRITES THAT IN SO MANY WORDS TALL AND LEAN EDDIE WAS A MAN'S MAN CASTING PPL COULDA WALKED DOWN A BUSY STREET R INTO A CLUB FOUND AN EDDIE LOOK ALIKE HE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO'S CHARACTER WAS OFF I KNEW EDDIE PERSONALLY HE COULD OF BEEN A HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL MODEL BUT DURING THOSE TIMES NO BLACKS! HE WAS GORGEOUS! FINE! EYE CANDY! HIS VOICE NO WORDS CAN DESCRIBE EDDIE WAS 1 GOD DID NOT DUPLICATE MANY TRIED NOT GOTTEN THERE, EVEN HIS MANY REPLACEMENTS IN TEMPTS COULD NOT TOUCH HIM!!! HEARING HIM SING ACAPELLA MY LORD IT WAS HEAVENLY

Diallo Kelly-Barnes David high as a kit

Ans Ollie Woodson

So you're saying I can be haughty, a drinker, woman beater, smoker, drug user, live a promiscuous life style, liar, abandon family for the sake of pleasures, fame and money and still make it to paradise? You make it sound like it's easy to make it to paradise when Jesus said it would be difficult (Mat 7:13, 14). How can you be so sure they will be in paradise? Who appointed you judge?

yooo he was so annoyed ctfu!

jill scottman I

I have watched this interview several times. It is a privilege to watch these two legends, the voices of the temptations, interact together. They are poised, professional, intelligent, sexy, articulate, and soft spoken. It's just too bad the interviewers were so incompetent. R.I.P. David and Eddie.

Yess asking the same questions almost made me feel like they were trying to be funny. Dont even recognize royalty.sitting right in front of them smh

They were both very polite and professional although David tried desperately to end the discussion. He looked as if he would have left but for Eddie.

...hey people... I want y'all to google the first ever performance of their recording of..my girl...sung by Mr. Ruffin.... I want y'all to particularly notice their facial expressions..no one will smile or turn away from the group's standing while to they are singing... but what I really want everyone to Zoom in on...are their eyes, particularly Mr. Kindrick's eyes...it seems looking at my cellphone video of them, that they were in a state of some sort of trans... meaning that as I'm viewing and looking at this 1st performance of them, I feel that I'm actually witnessing the unknown, meaning to me I don't think that these young, spiritually annoited Gifted Black artists men knew exactly what they were relaying through song... but after y'all google the video the question that I want to ask answered is ...did that particular performance of our Temptations seem like a regular studio recording of..say today's musical Black artists..????....it really is a strange and bizarre witnessing to me of a group of black men whose destination was not of this earth... meaning that they were sent to tell us what we need to do to get to the other side..... like at our baby boy Michael Jackson videos when he was only 6-9 years old...he and his brothers were telling us what we need to know and do...to get to the other side.... strange and bizarre as it really is...in this Pandemic Apocalypse of 2020....

Right they sitting there like wassup bitch

Me too and I'm 30 lol

They were cute. I like seeing the little gray in their hair. They would have been the cutest old men.

lol thankss

antij1 ikr lol I wish they were still alive, it would've been nice to meet them

yes ikr!!

I know, who knew they only had a few years left. I really enjoyed just seeing them together. The interview made my day too!

It does seem that they didn't really realize who they were talking to. I could have come up with better questions to ask these soul icons.

I hope I would have asked better questions too. I am just on end of communications major. I'm a newbe. Maybe they were too. David liked to go to church on someone, given the opportunity, cause he could - big pimpin! So knowing my subject, I would have loved to take it to the top. Eddie probably would have gotten a laugh out of it! He loved when David would pose as a statue in Statue of a Fool! Said it on an interview. Made me laugh too. Ruff sung the mess out of that record though!

I always wanted to know his philosophy on vocals or being a great singer. I'd like to know what he thought of other singers. They did touch on James Brown. I definitely would've liked more acappella singing!

I loved seeing this interview, and have watched it more than once. Thank you whoever put it out. I know I have things to do in life, but this interview is so entertaining that I will watch it some more. I like how David gets a little more comfortable and starts leaning on Eddie. Funny!

IKR! Eddie was a smoker, though

@@GrassValleyGreg True that, that definitely lowers the voice.

He also sang in a natural voice, there is a clip of him doing Losing You and David tripped. They were a bit older.

They were both great! David really could wear those clothes!

Liah Ford ...she sounds like a typical insincere jewess and the male sounded like a crook.

Heard he was a knockout in his younger days and in person

I guess they needed the money

IT WAS SUCH A PLEASURE TO SEE 👀 THIS INTERVIEW NOW IN 2021 AND GET TO ENJOY THE SPIRIT OF THESE TWO SINGING IDOLS. IF THE INTERVIEWERS ARE STILL IN BUSINESS,I PRAY 🙏 🙌 THEY HAVE IMPROVED...!!!

@@claudettegray4614 yes right

I can’t stop looking at Eddie 😍

Amen!

Two beautiful souls... Even the way they sat comfortably together shows how close they were in real life. Legends that can never be replaced... Rest in God's Peace, Brothers...

Miv.OldSkoolJams -The Temptations Interview Two Legend Joint Together it's a Beautiful Thing !!! Thanks gua117 for sharing !!!

Tell us more please 🙏

It was so cute especially the way David was messing with him

How was david a gentleman have you seen Tammie terrell unsung he was hurted her and threw her down the steps and slapped her face hard with a motorcycle helmet while time was fighting with bad brain tumor cancer had 8 surgeries on her brain fighting for her life no gentleman hooked on drugs would do that to a women kicking Tammie down the steps he might had been a good singer he's was no gentleman a drug addict and an abuser to Tammie terrell may she rest in peace🙏🙏🙏

TRUTH INDEED AMEN And we never see ARTISTS like this again sad

MrGandharva108 Wow 🤩 what an amazing experience that must have been! 😎👤👥👥🤵🏽🤵🏽🤵🏽🤵🏽🤵🏽🤵🏽

Damn you saw the real Tempts;

Amen!

TRUTH INDEED AMEN

Yes, agree.

What about Paul Williams

@@donjay1157 Mr. Williams was a good singer and a VERY important part of the group but the Temps biggest records were the ones with David, Eddie, and Dennis Edwards on lead vocal.

@@ghanasoul oh ok I thought Paul was apart of those too, but I always wondered after watching the movie why Otis had never been a lead singer not once, I know it wasn’t his position but not even one single time?

Sean Phill the Photos Grimsley, oh God they were!!!!

Yeah, were they fishing for idea's or what 😧🤔 ? Every race wanna know what we do and how we do it but quick to ridicule us and prejudge us. That's why you always see black people mug shots plastered all over the daily and nightly news as if white person never committ some of the most unthinkable crimes known to man. 😢.... RIP TEMPS......Your music lives on within the minds and hearts of the "SOUL" people...🥰😍💯🙏

So true.

Sean Phill the Photos Grimsley coked out smh

they were all laughing just chill out grumpy pants

1967

Eddie Kendricks was 46 and David Ruffin was 45 when they did this interview. Unfortunately, they both died far too early (David Ruffin in 1991 at the age of 50, Eddie Kendricks in 1992 at the age of 52) ...

Didn't David have asthma? I think i read that somewhere.

antij1 yes he did.

Love these guys

Yeah I think david had the coke flu Sniffles and some drips in there!

Yes indeed. Almost played w/ Daryl & John way back , before Sara Smile..
