In 1984, 'The Honeydippers' covered the song 'Sea of Love' by Phil Phillips. The Honeydippers cover is (IMO) another example of how it's tough to beat the original rendition of a song. You can listen to The Honeydippers rendition of Sea of Love then listen to this Phil Phillips rendition (1968) https://www.google.com/search?q=sea+of+love+phil+phillips++remastered&sca_esv=d645707ffb8e0e1d&rlz=1C1VDKB_enUS1091US1091&sxsrf=AHTn8zrZQZ57HPDJVxYrOhjBD9hUe4AIRw:1737827472926&ei=kCSVZ-SeOJDXkPIPtJDPmA0&ved=0ahUKEwjkptHpt5GLAxWQK0QIHTTIE9MQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=sea+of+love+phil+phillips++remastered&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiJXNlYSBvZiBsb3ZlIHBoaWwgcGhpbGxpcHMgIHJlbWFzdGVyZWQyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigATIFECEYoAEyBRAhGKABMgUQIRigAUiZIVC-BFiPG3ABeAGQAQCYAVCgAeUGqgECMTK4AQPIAQD4AQGYAg2gAokHwgIKEAAYsAMY1gQYR8ICDRAAGIAEGLADGEMYigXCAg4QABiwAxjkAhjWBNgBAcICExAuGIAEGLADGEMYyAMYigXYAQHCAhYQLhiABBiwAxhDGNQCGMgDGIoF2AEBwgIKEAAYgAQYFBiHAsICBRAAGIAEwgINEC4YgAQYFBjUAhiHAsICBhAAGBYYHsICCBAAGIAEGKIEmAMAiAYBkAYQugYGCAEQARgJkgcCMTOgB5s4&sclient=gws-wiz-serp#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:1adcf463,vid:L0DTHA3HVj8,st:0

PS: Phillips got screwed out of royalties, recorded an album but never released it and never recorded again. Thankfully, this one survived.
