The song was covered by Pato Banton in 1994 who was joined by Robin and Ali Campbell of UB40. This version was different from the original in that it was in a more conventional, commercial reggae style and Banton added his ain verses betwixt the Campbells singing the original hook and chorus. The vocal was a number-1 hitting single in the United Kingdom and New Zealand.[27] [28] It was released on 19 September 1994 and entered the UK Singles Nautical chart for the week ending 1 October 1994 at number sixteen and reached number one on its fifth week on the nautical chart, where it stayed for four weeks.[27] Information technology was the fourth biggest selling single of 1994 in the UK.[29] In New Zealand, the song entered the chart on thirty October 1994 at number iii, then rose to number ii the following week, before beginning a 4-week reign at number 1 from 13 Nov to 4 December 1994.[28] According to Virgin Records, about 750,000 copies were sold as of March 1995.[30]

Disquisitional reception [edit]

Music writer James Masterton wrote in his weekly UK chart commentary, "The new version is to be honest not half bad with toasting from newcomer Pato Banton and singing supplied past Ali and Robin Campbell from UB40, following Bitty McLean as the 2d protege they have helped into the charts. Easily a hit then and a possible contender for a Pinnacle 10 placing."[31] Alan Jones from Music Calendar week gave it iii out of five. He added, "A remake of the old Equal' hit, updated and reggafied past Banton in a jittery ska style, with vocal support from UB40'due south Campbell brothers Ali and Robin. A happy sound, and a minor hit."[32]
