He Can’t Help Himself

Or
You Can Reach Out, But He Won’t Be There

Or
Stubbed Out
Levi Stubbs, lead singer for the Four Tops, has died of any one of the number of things that have plagued him for the last several years. Unique among the pop groups of the 1950s and 1960s, the Tops actually stuck together, with the original four staying together for more than 40 years. They produced more than 40 Billboard hits, including “Reach Out, I’ll Be There,” “Bernadette,” and “I Can’t Help Myself.” In an incredible departure from his day job, Stubbs also provided the voice for Audrey II in Little Shop of Horrors.
