The Supremes were an American female singing group and the premier act of Motown Records during the 1960s. Founded as the Primettes in Detroit, Michigan, in 1959, the Supremes were the most commercially successful of Motown's acts and are, to date, America's most successful vocal group with 12 number one singles on the Billboard Hot 100. Most of these hits were written and produced by Motown's main songwriting and production team, Holland–Dozier–Holland. At their peak in the mid-1960s, the Supremes rivaled the Beatles in worldwide popularity, and it is said that their success made it possible for future African American R&B and soul musicians to find mainstream success.
Founding members Florence Ballard, Mary Wilson, Diana Ross, and Betty McGlown, all from the Brewster-Douglass public housing project in Detroit, formed the Primettes as the sister act to the Primes (with Paul Williams and Eddie Kendricks, who went on to form the Temptations).Barbara Martin replaced McGlown in 1960, and the group signed with Motown the following year as the Supremes. Martin left the act in early 1962, and Ross, Ballard, and Wilson carried on as a trio.
The Supremes were a Motown all-female singing group.

The Supremes is a 2000 box set compilation of the material by Motown's most popular act of the 1960s, The Supremes. The set covers The Supremes' entire recording history, from its first recordings as The Primettes in 1960 to its final recordings in 1976.
The set is four compact discs long; a bonus disc, An Evening with The Supremes, contained mostly unreleased live recordings and was included in the first 25,000 sets. Included in the set is a 70 page booklet with extensive essays, track annotations, and a full discography.
The Supremes Sing Country, Western & Pop is the fourth studio album recorded by The Supremes, issued by Motown in February 1965 (see 1965 in music). The album was presented as a covers/tribute album of country songs, as Ray Charles had done with his album Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music. However, over half of the selections on The Supremes Sing Country, Western & Pop were written in-house by Motown staffer Clarence Paul. One of the songs on the album is "My Heart Can't Take It No More", which the Supremes had recorded in 1962 and released in 1963 as a single.
One of Paul's songwriting partners on the album was his fourteen-year-old charge Stevie Wonder, making the Supremes the first act besides Wonder himself to record Wonder's songs.
Session group, the Andantes, appear on all but two of the tracks. They accompany Ross completely above Wilson and Ballard on Baby Doll.
The album was a modest success peaking at #79 on the Billboard Top 200. It sold around 200,000 copies. Though the album did not make the Billboard Country Album charts, Diana would later record a couple of solo country singles most famously, "Sorry Doesn't Always Make it Right".

It makes no difference now
What kind of life fate hands me
I'll get along without you
Now that's plain to see
I don't care what happens next
But I'll get by somehow
And I don't worry 'cause
It makes no difference now
Now that we have really parted
I can't believe we're through
And I don't blame myself
And I'm sure I can't blame you
I know something had to happen
And it happened somehow
And I don't worry 'cause
It makes no difference now
After all is said and done
I'll soon forget you
Although I know it will be so hard to do
Let things happen as they will
I'll get by somehow
I don't worry 'cause
It makes no difference now
Not now
Let things happen as they will
I'll get by somehow
I don't worry 'cause
It makes no difference now
