This ode to abstinence was one of the groups biggest hits. I really like it, it's got a great tune and good lyrics. Faith Hill did a good version on Diva's 2000(?) as well.

I like Sweet Sensation's version a little better, but the original is great too.

I think this is one of the best songs ever recorded. Sweet Sensations cover wasn't too bad but it pales in comparsion to the original

One of my favorite Supremes' songs.

Love Child was #1 on the Pop chart for two weeks knocking out the Beatles' Hey Jude back in 1968

Meh. I don't hate it, but there are loads of Supremes songs I'd rather hear. This is about the time period in their history when it becomes obvious that Diana Ross just needed to strike out on her own. Once she did, both the Supremes' material and her solo material went back to being of generally better quality than the '68-'69 output, I think.

They really had so many great singles. I love the melody in the chorus and the story line. Some of their best singles told stories.

A stupendous accomplishment. One of the best singles of the 1960's.
