weeks. Chart history Weekly charts Year-end charts Certifications Compilations The song appeared in many Presley compilations, of which many are related to the '68 Comeback Special or Inspirational collections. Sony BMG remastered the song in 2004. The song is referred to as stereo mix (as opposed to the 2004 remaster honorific) in '68 Comeback Special releases after 2004. Other compilations, such as Platinum: A Life In Music, include alternative takes on the song less polished than the official takes. For instance, the background vocalists are not present in most of these takes, specifically with "If I Can Dream". According to unsubstantiated rumors, Presley nailed the perfect take after the backing vocalists left the studio. Cover versions In 1990, Barry Manilow's cover reached #81 on the UK Singles Chart. Michael Ball's version went to #51 in the UK in 1992. A 2010 version by Terry Venables went to #23 in the UK. At the Eurovision Song Contest 2022, Italian band Måneskin performed a version of the song that was later included in the soundtrack of the film Elvis. The song reached #95 on the Lithuanian charts.
