Edna and Joe, the risk when nominating 'covers' of songs is always comparison to the originals. The Marvelettes' version has already made the Ten, and I didn't want to nominate a Beatles' song in this Ten. Anyway, I like all three, but think the Carpenters' version outdoes the others. Maybe nobody else will.
