This is a Very Good Version of this song! I had some of his albums back in the day. Never knew he did a version too! I like it, I like it! Thank you very much!!
Both versions were instrumental at the time when they were released. You cannot pit one, against the other. Both should be respected. equally on different emotions and level. Both are perfect! The song is exceptional regardless. One is more young love, the other more sensual. Appreciate both and realize how powerful it is...NO one wants to say GOODBYE.
After this came out by Issac Hayes I forgot Michael had even recorded it. The spin he put on songs just took it to another level.....I love all of his music...
the star that I can not reach but what can I do but look from afar thats the way its got to be I'll keep you in my heart where no one will ever know, the feelings that I have you will never know
@deion152002 this is a good version , but i would say michael's is good too, different styles. i'm partial to Mike coz i love the guy, and at a very young age he was able to deliver a song with so much soul in it :)
my favorite part starts at 0:32 i love when it breaks in like that then i have to play the song through and through about oh, i lost count it's on repeat.

Here is genius. Take a song that's already a hit, remake it anyway, and make it an eve nbigger hit. Only Isaac Hayes could do that. Pure genius!

I preferred MJ's version as a child and Hayes' version as an adult.

@gorickard319582010 As much as I love his voice I do like the Gloria Gaynor version better because of the tempo & she is an excellent singer as well.

@gorickard319582010 I agree..Isaac Hayes`s version is an adult`s view and Micheal`s version is a puppy love version..

@SunnyLee83 I think they are both great..Micheal Jackson`s sounds good in the day time and Issac Hayes sounds good at night

@SunnyLee83 Its not Michael's, its The Jackson Five. But Isaac is the best, followed by Gloria Gaynor

The Black Moses version is the best. I'd rather have a real man singing this song to me than a kid!

@deion152002 This is probaly the only time in music history that any artist ever outdid Micheal Jackson.
This version of the song is better than what Mike did and thats REALLY saying something.
