It was covered by Shaaman on their album Reason, and Gregorian for their album The Dark Side. Steinman produced a cover of the song, by Mike Vogel and Erika Christensen, for the soundtrack of the MTV film Wuthering Heights. He also used the song's main guitar riff and the "I need all the love I can get" vocal in a song for his musical Batman.

The song has also been re-recorded by Meat Loaf for his 2016 album Braver Than We Are.
