I'm giving I&T's version only a slight edge here. I used to not care for it at all until I really gave it a listen and found they really did something special with it. But lately I've kind of gotten tired of it and find that I still like CCR's a lot. In other words, some days I prefer one over the other.

I've never heard any of the others.

Love the CCR original, but this is no contest: the Ike & Tina version can't be topped.

Ike & Tina is the only version I can listen to. Preferably one of the live versions.

And now I notice Nick Swisher on the list. The hell (unless it's a different person than the ball player)?

(Also, I really need to start reading entire lists/posts)

One and the same. Swisher recorded a charity CD in 2011.

Huh. Interesting. Couldn't find that on YouTube, interestingly enough.

Found Nimoy's version on YouTube, incidentally. Quit before the halfway point.
