I concur.   Juice Newton's version has a nice punch with the drums. I have  
that as a 45rpm record too.

Meanwhile.. I learned that the Pretenders have a version of it too. Not bad,  
but the Newton version sounds more definitive.

The original by Evie Sands seems lacking.

I didn't realize that Olivia Newton-John covered it too.  Again, not as good  
as the JN version.

The Merilee Rush version comes close to the JN version, but I find the horns  
somewhat comical and out of place, killing the passion of the song.

There are a couple of songs that Tyler sings that remind me of a rasping  
goat.  :(   Oh well..
