  • "You're My Everything" is a 1967 single recorded by The Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label. It is the first of three singles (and four songs) to be co-written for the group by Motown songwriter Rodger Penzabene. It reached number three on the U.S. R&B chart and number six on the U.S. Pop chart. It would be the third single from the group's 1967 album The Temptations with a Lot o' Soul. This is one of two A-sides led by Eddie Kendricks since David Ruffin (who leads on the bridge and ad-libs on the outro) became the Temptations' lead singer, the previous being the 1966 song "Get Ready". As the song's main narrator, Kendricks tells his girl just how much she really means to him. "Now, I was blessed the day I found you,Gonna build my whole world around you,You're everything good girl, and you're all that matters to me" The single is backed by a cover of The Miracles "I've Been Good to You", also led by Kendrick. As such, it is one of the few singles by The Temptations where both sides charted (it peaked at number twenty-four on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 charts). (en)
  • "You're My Everything" is een hitsingle uit 1967 van de Amerikaanse mannengroep The Temptations. Het was de derde en qua Amerikaanse popnotering meest succesvolle single van het album "With A Lot O' Soul". Het nummer haalde de #6 plek op de poplijst en de #3 positie op de R&B lijst. Ook kwam "You're My Everthing" in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op de poplijst terecht, met #26 als piekpositie. Het nummer was het eerste waar producer Norman Whitfield samenwerkte met . Ook schreef , de gitarist van The Temptations tijdens optredens, mee aan het nummer. Penzabene, degene die de tekst voor het nummer bedacht, wilde dat Eddie Kendricks lead zou zingen en niet David Ruffin, die rond die tijd de meeste leadpartijen zong. Het werd ook Kendricks die het grootste gedeelte lead zou zingen, maar het was Ruffin die tijdens de bridge lead zong. Penzabene wilde Kendricks, omdat hij een grotere charmeur zou zijn met dames tijdens live optredens. Eddie Kendricks zou het nummer dan speciaal voor één vrouw uit het publiek moeten zingen. De B-kant van de single is het nummer "", een cover van The Miracles. Ook hierop is het Eddie Kendricks die lead zingt. In tegenstelling tot "You're My Everything" is "I've Been Good To You" niet afkomstig van het album "With A Lot O' Soul", maar van zijn studiovoorganger "Gettin' Ready". "I've Been Good To You" haalde zelf de #124 positie op de poplijst. "You're My Everything" werd onder andere gecoverd door Gladys Knight & The Pips en is de B-kant van hun single "". (nl)
