The song was covered by American R&B group 3T in 1996, released as the fifth single from their debut album, Brotherhood (1995). It was a success on the European charts, but was never released in the US. Michael Jackson, their uncle, provides background vocals.
A reviewer from Music Week rated the song four out of five, adding, "Uncle Michael provides backing vocals on this ballad which sends 3T harmonising down the schmaltz road via an arrangement oddly reminiscent of East 17's 'Stay Another Day'." [2]
