Temptations, that song is in a very good album from them. Still got it.

How interesting.

I was going to respond saying you were wrong and that it was Edwin Starr who sang this, not The Temptations, but thought I would just check before posting.

I now find that the song was indeed first recorded on an album by The Temptations (written, as was often the case with their songs, by Norman Whitfield), but was released as a single by Edwin Starr as it was considered too controversial - at the time of the Vietnam war.
