The words may not be exact, but the point is there are two sets of vocals on this record. It's a fascinating bit of mixing because if you didn't think about it, you'd just assume the Pips singing all in falsetto. Even though their contributions seem to be fairly minimal here, for whatever reason, [[maybe Quality Control) it was decided to blend in the Andantes' voices.
I've been listening to "Everybody Needs Love" ever since in came out in '67 and never noticed The Andantes work on the song until now. Thanks for the info Watching!

PS: Despite good takes on this song by The Temptations & The Velvelettes, Gladys Knight & The Pips' version of "Everybody Needs Love" is my favorite.
