For the length of this number, you could have had a long leisurely crap and read a good part of War & Peace. Boy, did Hayes' band know how to pad a song out, or what? |

Sorry Isaac. Warwick is fine if you're in the mood for happy, lighter fare, but if you want to groove then the rhythm on Isaac Hayes' version takes the song to a whole other level!! |

Sorry Isaac. I'm with you. The video for this cover has a nightmarish set out of the 70s. Still love the sisters backing Isaac. |
