A few weeks ago I heard Daydream by the Lovin' Spoonful on the radio, and it sounded somehow different, odd.. then I remembered that I read something once that some other band had done Daydream and released it around the same time, and that that version was probably the one I was used to hearing. I figured it was the Yellow Balloon or something, but have since found out that it wasn't.

Does anyone know?

Basically all the Lovin' Spoonful's hits and classics have been covered at some point.  Most of the covers did not chart but it's possible you could have heard them once somewhere.
 The Spoonful cover that I most notably recall was "Younger Girl" by the Hondells.  It charted about the time that Spoonful's version would have.   I think the situation was somewhat like the versions of "Gloria" by Them and by The Shadows of Knight.
"Daydream" has been covered over the years by Jon & Lynn (charted 1982), Bobby Darin, The Bee Gees, Maria Muldaur, The Vogues, Vince Gill, Chet Atkins, John Davidson, & The Turtles.

Hmm, thanks, maybe it might've been the Turtles version I heard..
