In 1992, the songwriter, Sting, made a solo version on MTV Unplugged and released a video. Sting also made another studio version in 2001, for his album ...All This Time where he remade lots of songs in new arrangements.
In 1997, Puff Daddy Featuring Faith Evans Featuring 112 redesigned the song, now calling it I'll Be Missing You, and made it number one again. This version was a tribute to rappers like The Notorious B.I.G. who were killed.
