The international version was produced by Cyndi Lauper, Jimmy Bralower and William Wittman, recorded by William Wittman and Jan Pulsford and mixed by William Wittman and is approximately 4:36 in length. It starts with a beat in the opening bar of the song, and includes a distinctive sample (male voice signing "Here") throughout the track.

The version commences with a reggae-style bass/guitar riff before the beat commences, the song ends with an ad-lib, a cappella chorus.
For the single release, an edit of the US version with a runtime of 3:50 was used.
