Fancy, a 1970s pop group made up of session musicians produced by Mike Hurst, recorded the song.[39] Described as a "deeply lascivious version .. with all the heavy breathing and suggestive orgasmic guitar and bass work", they were unable to release the song as a single in their native UK.[39] In 1974, Big Tree Records issued it on a single in the US, where it reached number 14 and was certified Gold.[39] It also peaked at number 31 in Australia.
