Remember watching Thomas Crown affair when i was a kid and hearing Windmills of Your Mind - blew me away brilliant song. Less haunting but also love Dusty Springfield's version

 

[City Hobgoblin]

You mean when The Beatles jumped onto their latest bandwagon?

They were showing an interest in the counterculture / hippy stuff before 1967 I would have thought? Rubber Soul, Revolver, We Can Work it Out reflect that.
Nat King Cole recorded Nature Boy way before the 60s.
Ginsberg, Kesey, acid tests all well before 1967.

Struth what are the odds of the same song from different artists with such a small sample size and IMO not nearly a classic to boot despite the TTCA ( btw THE Original streets ahead of the 99 version ).

 

[Deepest Blue]

Detest all versions of SitS.
Quite like WoYM.

It happened a couple of times in the first category as well, although that was the cover song round so not too surprising.

Loved Terry Hall's version of Windmills and quite liked The Cheaters version of Sprit (weren't they from Manchester or Stockport?) but it's Windmills that gets my vote today

Windmills is just the sort of mundane blandness that would be seen on every BBC Saturday evening "light entertainment " show.

At least Spirit has exactly that- some spirit

WOYM.....detach it from TTCA and its meh
