1. Wow!

I love to discover old gems like this one. I've never heard the first version before. They're both great. Whitney's voice will always hold a special place in my heart, though. Great post and thanks for sharing something that's new to me.

The Marilyn McCoo version definitely has a much smoother and mellow sound. Soft and soulful, it kinda melts and drips over you.
