The video quality in a previous post was very iffy - this is a lot better.

From Moonlighting S03E03 'Symphony in Knocked Flat', Dave tells Maddie all about his new video "How To Be Funky" - & The Temptations are there to help him ...

I had no idea how often this bass line had been sampled. Siedah Garrett’s great, looks like Dennis Edwards was on something. A classic. #80s #80sR&B #Temptations #SiedahGarrett

#Ace theme song?

#asexual #motown #Temptations #ExceptionToTheRule #music

an appropriate song for today... and these days in general

The sale of pills are at an all-time high
Young folks walkin' 'round with their heads in the sky
Cities aflame in the summertime
And oh, the beat goes on
Evolution, revolution, gun control, the sound of soul
Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growin' up too soon
...

So 'round and around and around we go
Where the world's headed, nobody knows

I look at myself in my mirror as I walk by
I say to my BF, You're such a lucky guy....
...But it was just my hair extensions, once again
Runnin' away with me
Ahhhhhh, it was just my hair extensions
Runnin' away with me
#Temptations

The Supremes and Temptations used to be the same group until the guys and girls split into separate groups. They never performed publicly together until they covered each others hits on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1967.

It was one thing for #Jesus to endure the #temptations of the devil when He was expecting them while in the wilderness. 

It would be quite another to hear the words of such an #adversary spoken through a close disciple and friend.

Which are you choosing? Temps or Tops? #motown @reybee.bsky.social #elementalmusic #temptations #fourtops #vinyl

This track was on point in 1970, but I’m sure none of the #Temptations expected it to be even more on the money in 2025… #musicsky m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf5J...

Ball Of Confusion (That's What...

Wisdom for the day:
“None can swim the sea of vice, but those who are united to the feet of that gracious Being who is a sea of virtue.”

Sahasranamam uses an example involving a lake and a tempting boat full of chocolates and video games to explain the idea of resisting distractions. He compares finding refuge in a virtuous path to staying safe from temptations, much like staying away from “Gundodaran Mama’s house” for Rajamani.

They also reflect on One Piece, particularly Nami’s choice to betray her past and embrace friendship over wealth and power. Rajamani uses this to highlight how resisting temptations, like Nami rejecting Arlong’s offer, requires inner strength and a commitment to higher values.

💡 What temptations distract you from your goals? Chocolates, gaming, binge-watching? How do you stay focused? Let me know in the comments below!

It's one big ball of confusion! Here's to hoping we'll only have 4 years of it and everyone will come to their senses. Keep hope, and LOVE, alive!

“(I Know) I’m Losing You” from The Temptations with a Lot o’ Soul, a 1967 album near the end of The Temptations’ “Classic 5” lineup era with troubled but supremely talented David Ruffin on lead vocals. That’s the iconic Funk Brothers as backing band. #temptations #motown #vinyl

Any Trump regime embraces chaos, and Agent 86 was dead set against C.H.A.O.S. but as everyone knows, CHAOS will never Get Smart. In the meantime, we just have to put up with the Ball of Confusion

Every morning, when we got out of work at 7:00 am, I'd drive Ron home.

Driving Ron home meant stopping at the Grocery for a 6-pack of Bush pounders (if I recall). Oh, I suppose I bought something too. I can't believe that. I used to go to his place after work, have a couple of beers and drive home at like 8:30 am. Not "drinking" drinking. Nothing dangerous.

I'm really fond of that memory. Ron enjoyed chess. He had a really nice chess set in the middle of his living room, in that tiny apt. Sadly, we never did get to engage in the chess game we'd chuckle and say next time.

More than anything (except his beloved family), Ron loved the #temptations "The Temps!" he used to say (or is it "The tempts"?... someone would know).

I so enjoyed those times, just sippin a beer, listening to the tempts, and having a chat with Ron Hart. That's a fortunate experience. An experience of fortune. I'm pleased to share it with you.
😊
