Put Yourself in My Place (Motown song)


"Put Yourself in My Place" is a song written by the Motown team of Holland–Dozier–Holland and recorded by at least four Motown recording acts during the sixties: The Elgins in 1965, The Supremes, Chris Clark and The Isley Brothers in 1966.

While The Elgins and Supremes' versions were both issued as B-Sides in 1966, the Isleys' version gave the brothers a hit with it in 1969 when Tamla Motown re-issued the single for British music listeners sending the song to #13 on the UK Singles Chart. Similarly, a 1971 Tamla Motown reissue of The Elgins' version (as a follow-up to their then-recent UK Top 3 hit, "Heaven Must Have Sent You") gave the group a Top 30 hit (#28).
