Too Hurt to Cry, Too Much in Love to Say Goodbye "Too Hurt to Cry, Too Much in Love to Say Goodbye" is a 1963 song and single written and composed by Motown's main production team Holland–Dozier–Holland. Credited to "the Darnells" the performers on both sides of the singles were in fact the Andantes (both sides), Holland–Dozier–Holland (B-Side only), Mary Wilson of the Supremes (B-Side), and members of the Marvelettes (A-side only), the Four Tops, and the Temptations (both on the B-Side). Nobody involved with the production on either side was pleased with the false credit. Whatever the reason it was done, it didn't work as the single only peaked at 17 on the "Billboard" "Bubbling Under Hot 100" charts.
