The most successful recording was performed by Tom Jones and released at the beginning of 1971.

It is Jones's highest-charting single in the U.S. (and his 5th and final Billboard top 10 hit).

The song was re-released in 2013 on Paul Anka's Duets CD with a new rendition featuring Tom Jones.

Anka rewrote the first verse of the song (recorded with Jones) because he disliked its chauvinistic sentiments.
