Terry Wayne Weeks (born December 23, 1963) is an AmericanR&B and soul singer who is currently one of the lead singers of the legendary Motown quintet The Temptations.
Weeks was born in Birmingham, Alabama. Serving in the Air Force, including involvement with Tops In Blue for eight years. Upon his retirement in the early-1990s, Weeks began singing locally around his home base in Alabama. After giving an impromptu audition to Temptations member Otis Williams, he was placed in a Williams/Motown side project, For Lovers Only. Following that group's only release, he was a fill-in for the Temptations, taking the place of Temptations lead Ali-Ollie Woodson, who was battling throat cancer. He would replace Woodson permanently in 1997, joining the Temptations lineup that included Williams, Ron Tyson, Theo Peoples and Harry McGilberry in 1996.
Weeks sung co-lead on the group's latter day hits, "Stay" (1998) and "I'm Here" (2000).
"The city in winter is rich with the bittersweet nuance and somber beauty of the once-was."
"Here, seated on red velvet banquettes at marble-topped tables, one can't help wonder what sights these smoky, gilded mirrors have reflected for more than 250 years."
"There was a whole lot of turmoil within our country, and it's amazing to me how powerful a medium music is. It breaks down all racial barriers. It doesn't matter about color. You forget all your differences for whatever amount of time you're listening to that music."
"Years ago, I used to be surprised at how popular the songs are today. But now I'm not. I understand that this music has just permeated American society. It seems like it has no expiration date to it. I look out at audiences and I see four generations. It's new to some of them. Even 40 years later, these songs are still in demand. It's a testament to the music of this era."
"He's pretty demanding because our fans are pretty demanding. We know what an audience expects from this group: a high-energy show with choreography and slick vocals."
"On the one hand, you had such great success in the music business, and on the flip side there was so much personal tragedy. It makes for such an interesting story. I think that's one reason the public relates to this band. They know these guys are still human beings."
I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes. Well love is all around me, and so the feeling grows. It's written on the wind, it's everywhere I go. So if you really love me, come on and let it show. You know I love you, I always will. My mind's made up by the way that I feel. There's no beginning, there'll be no end. 'Cause on my love you can depend. I see your face before me as I lay on my bed. I kinda get to thinking, of all the things you said. You gave your promise to me, and I gave mine to you. I need someone beside me in everything I do. You know I love you, I always will. My mind's made up by the way that I feel. There's no beginning, there'll be no end. 'Cause on my love you can depend. It's written on the wind, it's everywhere I go. So if you really love me, come on and let it show. Come on and let it show. Come on and let it show. Come on and let it show. Come on and let it show.
