Check Yourself

"Check Yourself" is a 1961 song that was released as a Miracle label single by Motown singing group The Temptations; and written by Motown president Berry Gordy, and group members Otis Williams, Melvin Franklin and Elbridge Bryant, and produced by Gordy.〔Williams, Otis and Weinger, Harry (2002). My Girl: The Very Best of the Temptations (liner notes ). New York: Motown/Universal Records.〕 It was the group's second single, as well as their second and last single for the Miracle label, which was deactivated immediately after this release.〔Williams, Otis and Romanowski, Patricia (1988, updated 2002). Temptations. Lanham, MD: Cooper Square. ISBN 0-8154-1218-5.〕 Starting with the next single release, the group's future recordings for Motown would be issued under the Gordy label until it was deactivated in 1988.
==Recording==
This is one of the small handful of pre-psychedelic era songs the group recorded that had more than two members singing lead at one point (the second one recorded but the first released). Tenor Otis Williams leads the intro of the song, while the group's bass singer, Melvin Franklin, has a spoken interlude. Baritone Paul Williams, at the time the group's lead singer, leads the rest of the song as the song's narrator; the narrator talks about how after "breaking hearts" the tables have now turned on him as he’s losing his love and now "memories... are all I have".
According to some sources, including Otis Williams autobiography falsetto Eddie Kendricks (and possibly Elbridge "Al" Bryant) did not record vocal on this single, and that the high notes of the song were done by Brian Holland and/or Eddie Holland. However, this cannot be substantiated by official Motown studio records. As for the label's deactivation, it was said to be due to poor sales (not helped by the slogan "If it’s a hit, it’s a Miracle") and confusion with The Miracles singing group.
