Like many of Whitney's hits, it is a cover. In this case the original was by Linda Clifford in 1981

You might even know it's a cover. The Bobby Fuller Four took it to the top 10 in 1966

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/rZ5v8L08Flg" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

You probably don't know it was written and originally recorded by the post-Buddy Holly Crickets in 1960

The 50 Best Cover Songs of 2021

https://www.covermesongs.com/2021/12/the-best-cover-songs-of-2021.html

They, as usual, have little in common with each other. A few tie into current events: Artists we lost, social justice concerns, live music’s fitful return. Most don’t. But does a doom metal cover of Donna Summer really need a reason to exist? How about African blues Bob Dylan, New Orleans bounce Lady Gaga, or organ ballad Fleetwood Mac? Nah. We’re just glad they’re here.

Only a select demographic knows it's a cover. It was originally recorded by former Spinner G.C. Cameron in 1975

I'm sure you know everyone's favorite Celine Dion song...

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/j8fHNdrZTSI" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

It was written by Jim Steinman, the man behind Meat Loaf's big hits. He didn't write it for Meat or for Celine. It was written for a group called Pandora's Box...

You probably know this Stevie Wonder song from 1969

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Tl_Axrry4AM" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Unlike most of Stevie's hits, he didn't write this one nor was he the first to record it. It was originally recorded by Chris Clark in 1966

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ykm3JZpiS08" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Christina Aguilera went all the way to #1 with this song in early 2000

It is a cover. It was originally recorded by French singer Ophelie Winter in 1998. She recorded both French and English versions.

There's an outside chance that you know this #1 hit, also from 2000

It is also a cover. It was first recorded by Sam Salter a year earlier.
