That’s originally a Bee Gees song.

Other than Christmas songs, Emotion is the only song where I have three versions. I have a version with just the Bee Gees, the one by Samantha Sang and the one by Destiny’s Child.  
I happened to be listening to the Destiny’s Child version when I was reading this thread and it sounded sort of like the song I was listening to. But, the odds of listening to the song while reading about it are very low, and it did take a lot of stretching to make it work. This is why I doubt it’s the same song.

Who _said_ nothing will ever adequately replace the Quaalude?

Harrumph.
