A popular remix by PWL's Phil Harding and Jamie Bromfield called the "Hip Hop Mix" was also released as the A-side on 7" and 12" formats. It was after the success of this mix that "Love Changes (Everything)" was re-released in 1988 and became a much bigger hit this time round. The song's music video was directed by Dieter Trattmann.[1]
In 1989, Jermaine Jackson covered "Rise to the Occasion" as a duet with La La for his album Don't Take It Personal.
