Heard it Through the Grapevine is another one that is delicious any way you cook it. Of course Marvin wrote it, and his is the best version imho, but all three are completely different and really good. In Marvin's version that rattling sound always reminded me of a rattle snake slithering through a tree with it's forked tongue bringing the gossip. And I always get a kick outta CCR's version and the way John Fogerty pronounced "heard". He hoid it through the grapevine.
