"Farewell My Love" is a 1963 single by The Temptations for the Gordy (Motown) label. It was the last single that was written and produced by Motown president Berry Gordy for well over a decade, and the last released during the period of the "Original 5" lineup (before member Elbridge "Al" Bryant was fired). It is also noted as the group's last single to miss the Billboard pop chart's Top 40 until 1971's "It's Summer" (and the last to not make it on any U.S. music charts for the next 23 years). Up until now the group was jokingly referred to at this time as the "Hitless Temptations" by the Motown staff, much like their "sister" group, The Supremes, were called the "no-hit Supremes". However, their next single, the Smokey Robinson-produced "The Way You Do the Things You Do", would reach the Top 20 of the U.S. pop chart, breaking the group's streak of being "hitless".




Overview


The song tells of a couple's breakup; the narrator speaks of his lover being untrue to him and that he's leaving her to find "someone who cares / And still be there" for him. This is the third of the small handful of pre-psychedelic era songs the group recorded that had more than two members singing lead at one point; the previous were "Isn't She Pretty" and "Check Yourself". As with "Isn't She Pretty", Paul Williams is the song's main lead, yet the song mainly showcases another group member, in this case Eddie Kendricks, who alternates between his famous falsetto and his natural register (first and second tenor). Bryant's voice is also prominently heard here, delivering harmony solos behind Kendricks' and Williams' leads as well as having brief lead lines on the first two choruses ("To me" and "I'm going cry"). Bass singer Melvin Franklin starts the song with do-wop harmonies and later repeats Williams' line, "Why couldn’t you be true?" at the end of the second verse. Although second tenor/baritone singer and leader Otis Williams doesn't have any solos, he is most heard prominently in the chorus and has some ad-libs in the outro of the song.
Although it did not chart nationally, the song was a regional smash hit in the country's mid-west. This would be the group's final A-side released with Williams as the main lead (although B-side releases "Just Let Me Know", "Baby, Baby I Need You", and "Don't Look Back" would be promoted as if they were), and the final one to feature Bryant's vocals altogether (his voice however would appear on two later B-sides). The next three singles from the group would have Kendricks on lead, and then, beginning with "My Girl", David Ruffin, Bryant's replacement, would become the Temptations' new main lead singer.

"May I Have This Dance"



The B-side to "Farewell My Love" was "May I Have This Dance". (recorded on November 2, 1962). Despite speculation by some that the recorded version of this song was led by Eddie Kendrick (who performed the lead on stage and was originally credited as the track's lead), in fact it features a lead vocal from Elbridge Al Bryant in which he's singing lead rarely through the whole song, which is only heard near the song's end. Backing him are fellow members Otis Williams, Paul Williams and Melvin Franklin;
