In 2005, the song's chorus was borrowed, with permission from Reilly, for a Eurodance version also called "Everytime We Touch", performed by German dance music group Cascada. This cover version was also a hit in Europe and became a top-10 in the United States, peaking at number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100.
