Though this is a great version of the song, I don't think this version is better than Cass Elliot's rendition. For one, it has too many starts and stops in the flow of the verse. Cass just breezed through the song and the harmonies were superb. Also Cass used American contractions like "gettin'" instead of Paul's use of the proper "getting" which Americans of that era just identified with more.
still pretty good, but mama cass version makes me feel better and stronger :)

This Version is Pretty Good, however it doesn't compare to Mama Cass's for me.
