January 30, 200619 yr Author Trying to make this a poll but its not working for some reason! It is now! Edited January 30, 200619 yr by CRAIG W
January 30, 200619 yr The 3 versions listed are all great imo, but have gone for Dionne's for sentimental reasons. A particular moment in my life when it came out. When I hear it I still get tears in my eyes. Sentimental old fool. How many other versions of this great song are there? I can think of Willie Tee, Nancy Wilson, but I know there are others. Help please.

January 30, 200619 yr Author When you go through a day And the things that people say They make you feel so small They make you feel that Your heart will just never stop aching And when you just can't accept the abuse you are taking Darlin' reach out for me Don't you worry, I'll see you through You just have to reach out for me I'll be there and I'll comfort you Oh yes, I will Comfort you and love you Oh how I'm gonna love you When good friends prove untrue And the things they do to you They make you feel so bad They make you feel that You haven't a reason for living So when you feel you Could throw in the towel and just give in Darlin' reach out for me Don't you worry, I'll see you through You just have to reach out for me I'll be there and I'll comfort you Oh yes, I will Comfort you and love you Oh how I'm gonna love you Edited January 30, 200619 yr by CRAIG W
January 30, 200619 yr All good but Roy Hamilton for me ... the passion in his voice always makes me cry
January 30, 200619 yr Yep Roy all the way. That crescendo ending "tell me tell me tell me". Great record, great version.

January 30, 200619 yr Without a doubt - for me it's Roy. We walked down the aisle to it last October for our 10th Wed Anniversary blessing. Superb!!!
January 30, 200619 yr Dionne great but Lou just scrapes past Roy for me, wonderful emotive record has Bacharach/David class all over it Lenny

There are other soul versions by Universal Mind, Jerry Butler, Michael Henderson, Nancy Wilson and Lynn Collins. ...and numerous pop versions (which I haven't heard) including Olivia Newton-John. Ask Pete Smith about that one. Paul Mooney
