Hey Mellow
This is from "The Best of the Temptations on the Ed Sullivan Show"
DVD. There's a funny accounting of what went on before the show,
in Tony Turner's book - Deliver Us From Temptation, on page 31.
I do like how David did not let Diana hog the spotlight - and he was sooo cool about it!

I am not Diana Ross Greatest Fan and i just watched this for the first time and felt her voice wasnt strong enough to sing with David it didnt match up very well ..But he was his usual Superstar performance ..

Looks like at 1:50, Diana looks around to see if David is going to start singing. He lets out a yell, and starts doin his thing...Tony Turner says he did a lot of ad libbing and threw her off. He also says David could sing much louder than Diana and that she came across sounding squeaky and whiny, and was livid by the end of the song.  |

I like Diana, but overrated in my opinion. She couldn't out sing David any day of the week. Can you imagine how big David could of been had he been promoted like Diana?

yeah that scream established his dominance over her right there!
I notice at the end when they all sing "oh yeah" Diana can't hit or hold that last high note. ;D
