As a person old enough to have heard this played on the radio when it was released, all I can say is it’s a great pleasure to see today’s young talented people appreciate and pay respect to this music. Extremely well done. Kudos to all.

[Law-And-Bass]

This bassist... The girl really gets her groove. All of it together, love it. It is so good :)

[russ-aepx]

I love watching Kamryn dancing with that bass. Just plain gettin into it.

[benschuit]

I must say, ok, i’am a little bit drunk, and a old geezer. (Almost 70) But listen to this about 200 times i stil really get emotional how good this is .. thank you kids… (real)music is not dying ..

[nuegaifuentes]

I have listened to this 100 times over the last year. Look... it's very rare for an artist to make a cover that beats the original. I'm old, stubborn and cling to the past. But wow!
You all did such a perfect job.

[Oscarrendon-bcqv]

I'm 70 and this spng brings such beautiful memories of my youth gone, god time went so fast

[decejlc]

Absolutely Fabulous... Fantastic Talent... Incredible Perfection... Future Grammy Winners... Unlimited Potential.... Thanks.. Terry Lear..

[ianoliver]

God, I still remember this song as a kid back in the 60s. Guess what? It's still great today as it was back all those years ago!!!

[bojango]

The background singers captured the spirit of the Mama's and Papas.

[richardlapacka]

I can't stop listening to this girl sing. What a haunting lovely voice.

[jacksonmarshallkramer]

I keep coming back to hear the backup crew. They are so dead on to the original that it's mind blowing. Perfection.

[AncientAussie]

What a great rendition of this song by this group. The bass player was really rocking it. I am 72 years old and was mid teens when this song came out and this brought back a lot of good memories.

[nicholasrobert]

That bass player has soo much soul in her fingers it's unreal!

[TheMaximumMinimalist]

I have to mention, its not just the performers that nailed it, its the audio engineers that wrestled with the reverbs, eqs, compression and overall balance that made this hit. Great job to all folks involved! The people behind the scenes running the studio have a lot of hard work to pull off great mixes, the population needs to see more of how cool that process is!!!

[ilantee]

Truly great! 1968 and the original was played all over. We first heard this whilst hauling an 18 wheeler across the Negev Desert, my beautiful wife singing beside me in the cab. Wonderful! We miss you Sharon.

[davidb]

Love the timbre, the "color, " of this lead singer's voice. She's definitely "got it." That indefinable magic vocal attraction. She needs to do a rock solo album.

[supersonicsquirrel]

I love the bassist's enthusiasm. She's really into it.

[jessebourneau]

Senior citizen here. GOBSMACKED. Oh the joy!!!! RAPTURED TO HEAR MY GENERATION’S MUSIC HONOURED BY SUCH GOOD, FINE, AND TALENTED YOUNG

[nickbowyer]

Best ever cover of this classic. Still listening and just as awesome. Lauren voice is perfect, drummer, bassist, keyboard player and guitarist all nailed it. The backing singers are just brilliant.
Phenomenal!

[jivas]

the bassist was having a blast during this recording.
