English singer Louise covered "'Let's Go Round Again'" in 1997 for her second album, 'Woman in Me'.

On the Eurochart Hot 100, the single reached number 30 in December 1997.

Critical reception

Jon O'Brien from AllMusic viewed the song as "a faithful cover". Pan-European magazine 'Music & Media' commented, "As her former Eternal colleagues move further into R&B, Louise has been just as effectively repositioned as a mainstream pop/dance act. Here, the process continues with a skilful rebuild of the 1980 Average White Band hit which becomes a slick and effective disco stomper with strong '70s overtones." Gerald Martinez from 'New Sunday Times' described it as "retro-disco".
