The song achieved worldwide success in a cover version by Hawaiian singer Glenn Medeiros in 1987 and 1988.

Medeiros originally released this on a small independent label at the age of 16, after winning a local radio talent contest in Hawaii. A visiting radio executive from KZZP in Phoenix, Arizona heard the song and took the record back to Phoenix, where, through word of mouth, it became a national hit. A massive worldwide hit, it reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent 4 weeks at number one on the UK singles chart in July 1988. The song was used by the United States Army to oust Manuel Noriega from the Vatican's embassy in Panama.
