“‘We’ve Got Tonight’ was remade by Lulu and Ronan Keating for Together – a 2002 album featuring Lulu with a number of diverse duet partners – and credited to ‘Ronan Keating featuring Lulu’. (In some territories the single was released with Lulu’s vocal replaced by that of Jeanette Biedermann: credited to ‘Ronan Keating featuring Jeanette’.
