The Source and Candi Staton- You’ve Got the Love
I have previously never heard of this lady before, but Florence’s cover is really similar…vocal-wise. Candi has done lots of covers, and was unsurprisingly popular in the UK in the late 70’s-late 80’s. She has bounced back and forth between Christian music and secular music, and in 2007 was inducted into the Christian Music Hall of Fame (there is such a thing…the more you know).
…Oh, and Joss Stone has covered this song too, apparently. It does indeed require a certain kind of voice. I’d like to hear Brody Dalle cover it.
