many assume that the supremes ended when diana "the boss" ross existed the group. however, they continued on and scored a few notable hits. one of my fave tunes from the 70's supremes is their last pop top 10 hit stoned loved. the only single released from their 1970 album new ways but love stays, many people saw that the song as a coded reference to drug use, and many radio station owners were at first apprehensive to play the record. however the tune was a plea for love and peace similar to those recorded by sly & the family stone in the late 1960s. the lyrics of stoned love were a plea for the people of the world to end conflict and animosity between each other, specifically the vietnam war. the term "stoned love" (or alternately, "stone love") defines the concept of an unchanging bond between one another. .:stoned love:.
