On March 27, 1965, the lead single on The Supremes' sixth album, More Hits by The Supremes, reached the top spot after steadily climbing the charts following its release on Feb. 8, 1965.
With "Stop! In the Name of Love," The Supremes became the first act with four consecutive No. 1 singles on the Hot 100. Diana Ross and her groupmates Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard would extend their streak to five with "Back in My Arms Again" later that year.
In 2021, Rolling Stone ranked "Stop! In the Name of Love" No. 254 on their list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time."
“This particular girl was very headstrong,” he recalled, per Rolling Stone. “So we got into an argument. She started swinging, missed me, hit the floor. And I laughed and said, ‘Please stop! Stop in the name of love.’”
61 years later, "Stop! In the Name of Love" is still remember for its signature choreography, which involved one hand on the hip and the other outstretched in a "stop" gesture. The Supremes first performed it on an episode of the ABC variety program Shindig! which aired on Feb. 24, 1965.
