...back when this was a hit MTV was showing a piece where it was being sung by Jackie Deshannon (who wrote the song) and I was amazed at how much she & Kim sounded alike.
But, if I search Jackie's version of it, I get the album version that is NOTHING like this version.
In this clip, they both had that smoky voice with the lagging delivery, but I've never been able to track it down.
