The Supremes

The Supremes

Se formó en 1961 en la ciudad de Detroit. Sus primeras integrantes fueron Diana Ross, Mary Wilson y Florence Ballard.Originalmente se llamaban The Primettes, y eran un cuarteto, ya que también contaban con la presencia de Barbara Martin. Con esta formación sólo grabaron un single en la compañía Lupine en 1960. Cuando en 1961 firmaron con Motown cambiaron su nombre a The Supremes, y Barbara Martin abandonó la formación. Berry Gordy, creador de la compañía Motown, volcó mucha de su atención en el trío, y finalmente en 1964 consiguió que Where Did Our Love Go se convirtiera en un número uno. El tema estaba escrito por Holland-Dozier-Holland, y se convirtió en el patrón a seguir en varios de sus siguientes números uno durante 1964 y 1965: Baby Love, Stop! In the Name of Love, Come See About Me y Back in My Arms Again.Tras la salida de Florence Ballard, el grupo pasó a llamarse Diana Ross & The Supremeseintrodujeron a sumúsica ciertas influencias psicodélicasdando al grupo nuevamente fama

Letra de You Keep Me Hangin' On
(Brian Holland/Lamont Dozier/Edward Holland, Jr.)

Set me free, why don't cha babe
Get out my life, why don't cha babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
You don't really need me
But you keep me hangin' on

Why do you keep a coming around
Playing with my heart?
Why don't you get out of my life
And let me make a new start?
Let me get over you
The way you've gotten over me

Set me free, why don't cha babe
Let me be, why don't cha babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Now you don't really want me
You just keep me hangin' on

You say although we broke up
You still wanna be just friends
But how can we still be friends
When seeing you only breaks my heart again
And there ain't nothing I can do about it

Woo, set me free, why don't cha babe
Woo, get out my life, why don't cha babe
Set me free, why don't cha babe
Get out my life, why don't cha babe

You claim you still care for me
But your heart and soul needs to be free
Now that you've got your freedom
You wanna still hold on to me
You don't want me for yourself
So let me find somebody else Hey!

Why don't you be a man about it
And set me free
Now you don't care a thing about me
You're just using me
Go on, get out, get out of my life
And let me sleep at night
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on...
