In 1994, Thanos Kalliris recorded a Greek version of the song, titled "Το Νου σου κύριε Οδηγέ". In the same year Paul de Leeuw recorded a Dutch language version of "La solitudine", with the title "Ik wil niet dat je liegt" (English translation: I don't want you to lie). Filipino singer Ivy Violan also recorded a Filipino language version of the song, adapted by Alvina Sy with the title "Hanggang Ngayon" for her 1998's album with the same title.

In 1994, Brazilian singer Renato Russo recorded a cover of the Italian-language version of the song for his album Equilibrio distante. After his death, a posthumous duet with Leila Pinheiro was included in his album Duetos. The English version of the song was covered by German pop singer Jamie Stevens and included in his 2002 album Unbreakable. The Spanish singer Abraham Mateo included a cover of "La soledad" in his self-titled debut album.

Cuban timba group Bamboleo recorded a salsa version of "La soledad" for their 1996 album Te gusto o te caigo bien. A year later, DLG followed suit, recording a salsa version of "La soledad" for their 1997 album Swing On. Lead singer Huey Dunbar removed the reference to "Marco" and replaced it with "ella" (she). DLG's version also adds a spoken reggae bridge to the song, in which the woman Dunbar is singing to responds to his plea and vows to return.

Famous quotes containing the word covers:

    Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.
    Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 10:12.

    It is an evil world. The fires of hatred and violence burn fiercely. Evil is powerful, the devil covers a darkened earth with his black wings. And soon the end of the world is expected. But mankind does not repent, the church struggles, and the preachers and poets warn and lament in vain.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    In truth, politeness is artificial good humor, it covers the natural want of it, and ends by rendering habitual a substitute nearly equivalent to the real virtue.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
