In 1984, Diana Ross covered the song. It appears on the album Swept Away.[6] This version was later sampled in the 2011 vaporwave song "リサフランク420 / 現代のコンピュー" ("Lisa Frank 420 / Modern Computing") by Macintosh Plus,[7] where it was slowed down and chopped and screwed, with the pitch changed. It became an Internet meme worldwide, and is to date one of the most emblematic songs of the vaporwave genre.[8]
