Leighton Meester did a great cover of it too

Kim Carnes >>>>> Gwyneth Paltrow > Kylie > Taylor 

[RockStarShit101]

kim's

[Tylerbv]

Kim obviously. How is this even a question  Iconic song

[John Slayne]

Kim > Kylie > Gwyneth > Taylor

[EmailMySwift]

Kim's is the best but why did Gwyneth clear my fave? 

 

[ithinkheknowsoutsold]

The OG, of course.

 

I like Taylor's but it sounds nothing like the Kim Carnes version so it can't really compare.

 

The Kylie version is too overproduced, which is a shame because I think her sultriness suits the song well.

 

The Gwyneth Paltrow version is surprisingly competently made, I know Gwyneth is a good singer but I fully expected the production to let her down. Probably my second favourite.

Leighton Meester’s

 

 

[SlowGinFizzzz]

Kylie's is the best.

Now...some of these give different vibes

I really like Gwyeneth's for example

really melancholy and easy

 

honestly I would pick either her or Kim's, depending on my mood

[Cruel Summer]

I love Taylor’s cover and I listen to it the most, but the original is the best version. The others don’t really do it for me.

[Taylor fanboy]

The OG ofc

[StonedSoulPicnic]

Fun fact: The original isn't by Kim Carnes. It's by Jackie DeShannon.

 

OT: Kim Carnes

[ithinkheknowsoutsold]

 

I found this charming rendition by Kylie, much better than the other overproduced one she did for BBC. 

[DammnBaby]

Kim Carnes is the only correct answer.

[Mornings]

Kim C.
