Hathaway's and Gaye's version are waaaay better than Ross or Ballard version I couldn't get into either of them.... they kinda dragged.

The Supremes' version is just okay for me. Ballard's bluesy voice is good on this tune, but the production is really lacking. I'll take either over that horrid cover by En Vogue. lol The original is and always will be a favorite of mine. I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't know it, and I tear up every damn time.
