The Temptations chat to I Like Music

ILM: Do you wake up each morning and feel proud of the amount you've achieved and the fact that you've provided the soundtrack to people's lives? And do you have any ambitions left to achieve?

JOE: I thank God each morning for where I am. It didn't have to be me. My ambitions are to continue and just become greater in following the path that I walk.

TERRY: Cheryl, we constantly thank ourselves and thank God for the opportunity. There are a lot of factors, like being able to go out to perform all over the world, which is a great pleasure and we feel blessed. There are still goals ahead. We want to continue to provide the best music we possibly can for our audience and to win over new fans too.

ILM: You've won Grammy's and appeared in numerous Halls of Fame any interesting anecdotes or stories about the most inspirational people you've met along the way?

TERRY: At the Grammys you see your peers, and of course you always run into people you admire. But there was this guy who came up to me after our performance. He was a Vietnam veteran and the things he told me absolutely touched my soul. He said this music was the reason why he came back from Vietnam. That music gave him the strength to go on every day and it was a piece of home that he could hold on to and it could save him and help him get through all that turmoil and chaos and make it home. To this day it was his therapy. That touched me more than any award or anything. When a music that you enjoy touches them in such a way, that's bigger than anything.

ILM: What is your biggest temptation in life, something you can't resist?

TERRY: Since I've been in this group, it's got to be laughter. That's one thing that we never lose, the ability to laugh.page << 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 >>
