Gaynor 's cover, released on MGM records, was produced by the Disco Corporation of America, a production company newly formed by Meco Monardo and Tony Bongiovi to which Gaynor was signed. Also working on this production were Jay Ellis and Harold Wheeler. Gaynor 's cover has the distinction of occupying the number - one spot on the first Dance / Disco chart to appear in Billboard magazine.

The performance received mostly positive reviews. Jen Chaney of The Washington Post gave the song a `` B − '', and said it `` worked much better than every track that preceded it '' because it adapted the song to the show `` instead of trying to out - Jackson Jackson ''. Entertainment Weekly 's Joseph Brannigan Lynch called it `` a nice summation of her character 's journey, but not vocally impressive enough to justify listening to outside of the episode '' and gave it a `` B ''. Crystal Bell of HuffPost TV described it as a `` blah performance '', but Kate Stanhope of TV Guide said it was `` sweet and reflective ''. Erica Futterman of Rolling Stone wrote that it was `` a tune well - suited for Quinn 's sultry voice and the flipped meaning she gives the lyrics '', and TVLine 's Michael Slezak had a similar take : he gave it an `` A '' and called it a `` remarkably lovely fit '' for her voice.
