Cover Versions and Legacy
In 2004, Lucie and Sandy, two contestants of the French television show Star Academy 4, covered this song on one of the Friday weekly shows.
On 30 March 2004, on the Worldbest competition which brings together winners of various broadcasts of Star Academy, the two finalists, Wilfred Le Bouthillier and Marie-Élaine Thibert, performed "Si demain... (Turn Around)", gaining the second place. In 2005, they released the single in Canada under the title "Et si demain" ; their version is different from the original one because a verse is deleted and there are more refrains near the end of the song. They also performed "Et si demain" on 18 September 2004, in the show "La Fureur" on SRC, and on 19 April 2004 on TVA. Le Bouthillier and Thibert's version was in turn covered by K4T and Luc St-Pierre in the Canadian TV show Heure de Gloire.
In 2007, Isabelle Delobel and Olivier Schoenfelder, two French professional figure skaters, carried out their performance to "Si demain...(Turn Around) ", in "Stars sur glace", at the Palais omnisports de Paris-Bercy, broadcast on Paris Première (the song features on the programme of their 2006–2007 figure skating season). This song was featured briefly in the 2003 film Old School. It was sung by the wedding singer, Dan Finnerty, at Will Ferrell's character's wedding reception.
