In 2015, Loreen recorded a version. It was released as a single on 18 December 2015 where she performed it live on TV on at Svenska Hjältar-Galan. It is her first single released in the Swedish language.[6]

Loreen turned the guitar pop track into a moody, electronic ballad which starts out with just her voice and some synths, but halfway through explodes with a lush production and more vocal power.

Michael from 'A Bit of Pop Music said; "This type of moody electro ballads suits her powerful and mystical sounding vocals the best." requesting more of this on her second album.[7]

Scandipop said; ""Under Ytan" [is] a stark and dramatic new production that builds into something special." [8]

In 2017, Kikki Danielsson recorded the song during Så mycket bättre. The song was then called "At the Border", depicting the situation of refugees throughout the world.[9]
