Eddie Fisher's version

After the modest success with People Like You, Eddie Fisher recorded "Now I Know" with "I Haven't Got Anything Better to Do" as the B-side, (the B-side appeared on his album People Like You) in 1967. ^[6] William Ruhlmann of AllMusic comments that "People Like You" barely registered on the pop charts, and that "Now I Know" got even less attention in the spring. ^[7] It was his last single that charted, and his recording career basically came to an end, with him only recording a tribute album You Ain't Heard Nothin' Yet the next year. The song reached #23 on the AC chart, and didn't appear on the Hot 100. ^[8]
