Remixes and other versions

On 9 February 2018, Scott released a remix version of the song with Leona Lewis. Scott remarked in a statement: "Working with Leona was a dream come true. As a fan, I first remember watching her on TV before going on to grace the globe with her incredibly beautiful voice. Now having the honour of working with her on one of my own songs is completely surreal and the passion and raw emotion she brings to our duet makes it even more special to me."[3]

Scott released a version of "You Are the Reason" with Dutch singer Ilse DeLange on 21 May 2018.[4]

A French version of "You Are the Reason" with French singer Barbara Pravi was released on 1 June 2018.[5]
