The song was first covered by German group Try 'N' B. The group was formed by two members of the Real Milli Vanilli with two new members, and their album was essentially an updated version of that group's album. The group were the first to release the song as a single in 1992, as the second single of their album (titled "Sexy Eyes" in Europe and self-titled in America), but it failed to chart.
