"Substitute" is a song by Willie H. Wilson, recorded first by The Righteous Brothers and released as single from their album The Sons of Mrs. Righteous in 1975.[1]

This song was also released in 1978 by the South African band Clout and became a big hit. A version by Australian group Peaches also charted locally at the same time, but was out-charted by the Clout track.

It was also covered by Gloria Gaynor in 1978 and by Polish-Swedish singer and actor Izabella Scorupco in 1990.
