Gotta go with Shocking Blue here. I'm as big an '80s fan as the next person, but there's something about psychedelic era organ that totally trumps synthesizer.

You forgot to vote. I'm going with the original too.

A true rock classic versus a prime example of the reason I stopped listening to modern music in the first place.

Shocking Blue in the easiest win ever!

Funny, but yeah, that really does it, doesn't it? The cover's fun, but the original for me too.

I've always thought that the late Mariska Veres was deserving of greater recognition in the U.S. and it's something of a shame that her voice is only heard whenever the song -- and the hit version of it -- in this matchup is played.

So, if you'll permit me...another version, as performed by the jazz quintet founded by Mariska after Shocking Blue broke up...

And with that, regarding the matter at hand...

The Original -- Mariska Veres & Shocking Blue, please!
