Best Answer

The Temptations had a string of Number 1 hits in the US Top 10, but never a number 1 in the UK Top 10.

Their earliest number one hit was in fact their first single - "My Girl", released in 1965, a song that never even placed in the UK Top 10. The next song that they reached the top spot with was "I Can't Get Next To You" in 1969, 4 years after their initial success. Then in 1971/72 they had two further Number 1 singles in the US. These were "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)" in 1971, and "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone" in 1972.
