    That is exactly one side of the real talent of Bananarama, to take on a classic song, by elevating it and make it sound fresh and sometime even more enjoyable than the original. They did that brilliantly with Venus and they did it again with this one. Such a putty, that it did not chart that high as Venus

    Just heard this mentioned on the Ken Bruce show. When I recovered from the sheer disbelief that this hideously untalented mob could possibly have had the effrontery to record this classic, I decided to have a listen. Predictably I lasted well under a minute. How in the name of all that's right and proper did they EVER get away with it? Stock, Aitken & Waterman - hang your heads in shame. You were the natural successors to Chapman & Chinn, only far worse.

      paulevans1954 I wasn't going to say anything, but I changed my mind. I have never liked this song, not even by the Doobie Brothers. In fact, I HATED this song until Bananarama did it. I was disappointed to see they did a cover of THAT song, but I can at least listen to it. I still, to this day, don't like Michael McDonald's voice. And they aren't an untalented mob. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but taste varies.

      Actually it was Youth who produced this and it's actually very good.
