This is a song that makes me feel like everything will be okay. I'll be there with a love that will shelter you I'll be there with a love that will see you through
Having almost slit my wrists from the misery** of the last choice I had to quickly change to something more uplifting...ergo...The Four Tops, a group who formed in 1953 and uniquely, never changed their line-up till 1997 when sadly Lawrence Payton died. Abdul Fakir (Duke) is the only surviving original member, but they do still perform. Hope you like it. :-) #TopClassics [**I'm not referring to Frank Sinatra of course]

Possibly the only group in Motown (formed in 1953 at school), who never changed their line-up, until the passage of time in 1997 forced the issue. I think these guys were always outstanding. God bless Abdul, the only one left of this great great group. Levi Stubbs, Abdul "Duke" Fakir, Renaldo "Obie" Benson and Lawrence Payton live on in this 1966 classic. #HopeYouLikeIt
