The track
Dieter Bohlen has been cited with this song as the inspiration for using falsetto choruses in his songs, such as Modern Talking, C.C. Catch and Blue System. In 2013, the song was sampled in The Weeknd's song "Wanderlust", on his album Kiss Land. The Weeknd samples the melody, the original chorus and a part of the original lyrics.
