I liked the song and the VH sounded nice to too.
I did think it sounded a bit odd for a male to sing it though. But I did find other guys have covered this song as well:
Bootlegged studio recordings of the song are found by such artists as Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, and The Beach Boys (Keepin' The Summer Alive era). It became a #1 Billboard hit in 1977, launching the career of teen idol Shaun Cassidy. (The words were changed slightly to keep it a boy-girl song.) All-girl rock band The Donnas recorded a version of the song as a single, which was later placed on the 1998 re-release of their 1997 self-titled cd. Other artists who have covered this song include The Carpenters, Jack Nitzsche, Ian Matthews, The Raindrops, Brian Poole and the Tremeloes and The Searchers
