The A-side of this single features Mimms and his backing singers crooning their way through a tale of romantic loss, shifting from the perspective of an outsider to their own situation while looking for a remedy.  The B-side, covered and repopularized by Janis Joplin in ‘71, features more plaintive lyrics and more vulnerable emotion, with the sing-speaking delivery of the verses giving things an earnest spin into the peaking cries of the chorus.  Very fine on both sides, but the power of the B-side holds firm more than half a century after its initial release.
