By 1983, The Tops had rejoined Motown, and were featured on the company's television special Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever. One of the highlights of the show was a battle-of-the-bands between The Tops and The Temptations, patterned after similar competitions Berry Gordy had staged during the 1960s. Levi Stubbs and Temptation Otis Williams decided the Temptations/Tops battle would be a good one to take on the road, and both groups began a semi-regular joint tour; as of 2005, the two groups continue to play dates together.

I enjoyed listening to the music of my day. The lyrics and the styles are awesome of both groups. What is best is that there isn't any vulgar language used.

Now this is real singing.
I don't know what these folks today are doing, it's diffently not singing. This music moves your soul and spirit. You just can't sit still. It gives you a feeling that makes life worth living.
