Cover versions in Finland and Poland
editIn 1995, Finnish female pop duo CatCat brought out a Finnish-language version of the song, entitled "Piirtelet mun sydämeen (You draw in my heart)". This version was renewed in 2017 when the duo re-recorded the song, changing its form from pop to club music.[3][4]
In 1998, Forte, a Polish duo, released a Polish-language version of the song, entitled "Monte Carlo i Ty (Monte Carlo and You)". In this version, the sound has been changed to be closer to Eurodance music, the melody of the verses has been changed and an English rap part has been added. The cover in the Polish language version was the title track of the Forte duo cassette and album.[5][6]
