The version of "When I Fall in Love" by English singer-songwriter Rick Astley was released on November 30, 1987, coinciding with the 30th anniversary of the release of Nat King Cole's version of the song. This single is mainly remembered for a closely fought contest for UK Christmas number one. Rivals EMI, hoping to see their act, Pet Shop Boys, reach number one with "Always on My Mind", re-released the version by Nat King Cole.{{cite web |url=https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/take-me-to-your-heart/id277825763?i=277825791&ign-mpt=uo%3D4 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110510023030/http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/take-me-to-your-heart/id277825763?i=277825791&ign-mpt=uo%3D4 |url-status=dead |archive-date=May 10, 2011 |title=The Ultimate Collection by Rick Astley |publisher=iTunes |access-date=May 15, 2010 }}{{cite web |url=http://www.rickastley.co.uk/discography/singles/singles03.html |title=Discography – When I Fall In Love |publisher=www.rickastley.co.uk |access-date=May 15, 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100419231419/http://www.rickastley.co.uk/discography/singles/singles03.html |archive-date=April 19, 2010 }} This led to a slow down of purchases of Astley's version, allowing Pet Shop Boys to reach the coveted top spot. Despite selling over 250,000 copies and gaining a Silver certification from the BPI,{{cite web |url=http://www.bpi.co.uk/certifiedawards/search.aspx |title=Certified Awards Search |publisher=BPI |access-date=May 15, 2010 |archive-date=June 30, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170630225416/http://www.bpi.co.uk/certifiedawards/search.aspx |url-status=dead }} it peaked in the UK at number 2 for two weeks. The re-release by Nat King Cole reached number 4. Since the single was released as a double A-side, the other half of the single was "My Arms Keep Missing You", which was successful in its own right in Europe. In 2019, Astley recorded and released a "reimagined" version of the song for his album The Best of Me, which features a new piano arrangement.{{cite web |first= Leah |last= Brungardt |title= An Interview with 'Never Gonna Give You Up' Singer Rick Astley on His Iconic Hit Song, His Newest Album and Much More! |website= All Access Music |date= November 12, 2019 |access-date= November 20, 2019 |url= https://music.allaccess.com/an-interview-with-never-gonna-give-you-up-singer-rick-astley-on-his-iconic-hit-song-his-newest-album-and-much-more/ |archive-date= November 12, 2019 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20191112214600/https://music.allaccess.com/an-interview-with-never-gonna-give-you-up-singer-rick-astley-on-his-iconic-hit-song-his-newest-album-and-much-more/ |url-status= dead }} On November 24, 2022, the original music video was remastered to 1080p HD for a limited edition 12" double A-side red vinyl issue of the "Love This Christmas" single.{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxVOaTs2Moz32Ry0_C1nm59X03Iec4dyB3|title=The HD remaster of the video for 'When I Fall In Love' is out now on YouTube in the link below!

The cover version of "When I Fall in Love" by Canadian singer Celine Dion and British singer Clive Griffin was featured in the 1993 romantic comedy Sleepless in Seattle, starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, and released as a single in July same year. The song was recorded expressly for the soundtrack and was originally intended as a duet between Dion and Stevie Wonder, but according to Dion when she heard the demo performed by Warren Wiebe she preferred that would be her duet with Wiebe. It was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal in 1994, and won a Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s). The award went to David Foster and Jeremy Lubbock. The song appears on both, the Sleepless in Seattle soundtrack (number one on the Billboard 200 and 4× Platinum RIAA certification for selling over 4 million copies in the US), and later on Dion's album The Colour of My Love, released in November 1993.[http://www.celinedion.com/celinedion/english/music.cgi?album_id=5 The Colour of My Love] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080703013358/http://www.celinedion.com/celinedion/english/music.cgi?album_id=5 |date=July 3, 2008 }}.

J.D. Considine from The Baltimore Sun wrote that "it's no accident that Celine Dion keeps recording all those movie-theme duets -- she's got the perfect voice for wide-screen romance, all unbridled power and telegraphed emotion." He added that "she sounds great, demonstrating the kind of vocal confidence that originally made Whitney Houston a star."Considine, J.D. (January 28, 1994). "Celine Dion shoots for soul but misses". The Baltimore Sun. Larry Flick from Billboard felt that Dion "is at home within an arrangement of delicate rhythms and sweeping orchestration", while also noting that Griffin's voice "is a pure thrill."{{cite magazine|first=Larry|last=Flick|url=https://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-Billboard/90s/1993/BB-1993-06-19.pdf|title=Single Reviews|magazine=Billboard|date=June 19, 1993|access-date=February 1, 2020|page=86|author-link=Larry Flick}} Christopher Smith of Talk About Pop Music said that the singers "do credible justice to Nat’s signature tune as she remains in subdued and romantic mood for the entire length" of the song.{{cite web|author=Smith, Christopher|url=https://talkaboutpopmusic.com/2019/10/26/review-the-colour-of-my-love-celine-dion/|title=Review: 'The Colour Of My Love' – Celine Dion|publisher=Talk About Pop Music|date=October 26, 2019|access-date=April 7, 2020}}
