1970 single by The Grass Roots
"Temptation Eyes" is a 1970 hit song by The Grass Roots. It was released on their second compilation album, More Golden Grass.
Background
The song reached number 15 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1971. It spent 18 weeks on the charts, making it the band`s single of greatest longevity, sustaining itself three weeks longer than their greatest hit, "Midnight Confessions".
Two versions exist. The original mono mix had its vocal chorus section double-tracked, while the chorus in the stereo mix uses one voice (single-tracked).
Grass Roots` lead singer Rob Grill would in 1991 cite "Temptation Eyes" as his personal favorite Grass Roots song.[3]
