Phil Vassar covered the song in 2007 under the title of "Love Is a Beautiful Thing". It is the second single released from Vassar's album, Prayer of a Common Man. His version includes a few minor lyrical changes, such as: "Uncle Joe and Uncle Jake / Haven't spoken since '98", instead of "Uncle Joe and Uncle Jake / Haven't spoken since '88." Also, while Brandt's version ends in a fade-out, with him still singing, Vassar's version ends with a cold outro with no spoken-word lines.
