The song was originally recorded in 1963 by Dionne Warwick. Her version would get to 6 in the US and 9 in the UK. Shortly after Warwick recorded it, Aretha Franklin would also record a version but her one would only be an album track. In 1969 Isaac Hayes would see his version get to 30 in the US. The song has been recorded by a number of different artists with The Stranglers (UK #21), The Average White Band (UK #46, US #92), Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons (Australia #55, New Zealand #6) and Gabrielle (UK#7) being some of the more successful recordings.
