"Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)" is a 1971 number-one hit single released on the Gordy (Motown) label, recorded by The Temptations and produced by Norman Whitfield. The second single from their 1971 "Sky's The Limit" album, "Just My Imagination" was the third of four Temptations songs to go to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. The single held the number-one position on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart for two weeks in 1971, from March 27 to April 10, replacing "Me and Bobby McGee" by Janis Joplin, and replaced by "Joy to the World" by Three Dog Night.
Today, "Just My Imagination" is considered one of the Temptations' signature songs, and is notable for recalling the sound of the group's 1960s recordings. It is also the final Temptations single to feature founding members Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams. During the process of recording and releasing the single, Kendricks departed from the group to begin a solo career, while the ailing Williams was forced to retire from the act for health reasons.
"Just My Imagination" relates the bittersweet story of a young man who is too shy to approach the woman he loves, and instead daydreams and imagines a relationship with her. The narrator is canny enough to realize that his daydreams are fiction and not fact, but nevertheless resigns himself to his fantasies.
The song's first two verses, composed with alternating C major and D minor chords, establish the song's theme and explore the narrator's daydreams. In his mind, the narrator and his unrequited love are lovers, prepared to be married, "raise a family", and "build a cozy little home / off in the country / with two children, maybe three".
The song's bridge introduces a harmonic change from C major to G7 as the reasoning behind the narrator's shyness is made apparent. The narrator has not made any attempt to approach the woman because, after having been hurt by a previous lover, he is simply too afraid to embrace the possibility of heartbreak again. In fact, the narrator prays to G-d that he will never have to experience a breakup again, or he will "surely die". His safe solution is to continue to do what he has done all along: romance the woman he loves only within the confines of his imagination: "But in reality / she doesn't even know me." A number of artists have since covered "Just My Imagination", often in different styles from the original. Among the most notable covers of the song is a version by The Rolling Stones, featured both on their 1978 album "Some Girls" and their 1982 live album "Still Life." Unlike the Temptations' original, the Rolling Stones' cover has a higher tempo, prominent electric guitars, and replaces the subdued tone of the original with a rougher feel.
"Just My Imagination" was written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong.
