After the song was recorded by Frankie Laine in 1953 and reached #1 on the United Kingdom charts, another version was written by Sigman in which, instead of directing the question to God about why the singer has lost his love, the lyric is addressed directly to the lost lover. In the new lyric, "Answer me, Lord above" is changed to "Answer me, O my love" with other appropriate changes. The new song, entitled "Answer Me, My Love," was also recorded by Laine, but became a bigger hit for Nat King Cole in 1954.
