Midler's version reached number 44 on the Kent Music Report and number 78 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song also appears on her 2015 compilation album A Gift of Love. Crenshaw said of Midler's version, "I guess there must have been something in it that struck her as funny—that appealed to her sense of humor perhaps, whatever that is."
