Later in 1962, Maureen Evans released a version of "Like I Do", which spent 18 weeks on the UK's Record Retailer chart, peaking at No. 3,[6] while reaching No. 5 in Ireland,[7] and No. 7 on New Zealand's "Lever Hit Parade".[8]

In December 1962, Japanese pop duo The Peanuts released a version of the song, which was titled in Japanese "Lemon Kiss".[9] The song retained a small portion of the song's original English language lyrics, but the Japanese lyrics, written by Minami Kazumi, were completely different.[9]

Teresa Brewer released a version of the song titled "She'll Never, Never Love You (Like I Do)" in 1963. Brewer's version reached No. 122 on Billboard's "Bubbling Under the Hot 100"[10] and No. 13 on Cash Box's "Looking Ahead" chart of singles with potential of entering the Cash Box Top 100.[11]
