Who sang more lead songs John or Paul?

I've heard Paul sang lead in more songs than John but I've also heard John has sang lead in more than Paul, it would make more sense that John would of sang lead in more songs since he was the lead singer in the band.

How did blue from the temptations die?

Paul Williams shot himself in the head, August 17th 1973. Correction: There were three main lead singers of The Temptations: 1st Lead Singer, Eddie Kendrick(s)--died of lung cancer in 1992 2nd Lead Singer, replacing Elbridge "Al" Bryant, David Ruffin--died of cocaine overdose in 1991 3rd Lead Singer, replacing Paul Williams, Dennis Edwards--still alive as of 3/05/2011 Otis Williams, who formed the Temptations, was never considered a lead singer. Paul Williams, an original member, also was not a lead singer. Eddie Kendrick was Paul's best friend and was offered the lead singer role. His condition in joining the group, then known as the Elgins, was to have Paul as a member of the group, as well. There were other lead singers that came in and out of the group, including Richard Street, who had been with the Distants before joining the Monitors. The "Classic 5" known Temptations are Otis Williams, Melvin Franklin, Eddie Kendrick, Paul Williams and David Ruffin. Dennis Edwards became lead singer only after Eddie Kendrick's departure.
