In 2001, Italian singer Mina recorded a cover version of the song. It was first introduced to the public on March 31 of the same year during the broadcast of the documentary Mina in Studio. According to Paolo Limiti, it was recorded in one take. The singer herself later confirmed this, also stating that she immediately liked the song as soon as she heard it, deciding to record a cover, but in a "heavier" manner.
