    Giving my vote to Eddie. Being a born and raised former Detroiter, bnngs back memories of going to Simpson's Record Shop (Donnie Simpson's family) to pick up the latest hits. During those days, our people looked out for one another. Thanks for the posting.

    David was clearly influenced by Eddie however the inspirer can never be overtaken by the inspiree.
    Eddie's version not only being the original, is more soulful. Eddie's version just makes you want to grab your woman & give her what she's been BEGGIN' FOR FROM YOU, ALL THIS TIME, (if you don't know what that is, TURN IN YOUR PLAYER'S CARD)!!!
    The scat from David doesn't work for me.
    David turned in a nice performance, but Eddie KEEPS ON TRUCKIN' WITH THIS ONE!!!
    EDDIE WINS!!!

That said, the original is just pure magic.
