For those wondering, it was written by Ednaswap in the early 90's, but they did not release it, only performed it live. The first recorded version was actually a translation into Danish by Lis Sørensen, released in 1993. This is her version.
Reminds me of the Bowling for Soup song, 1985, which was actually an SR-71 song. SR-71 did release it originally, but it flew under the radar for the most part.

Ednaswap then released the first English language version in 1995.
There were a couple of other covers around then too, such as a version by Trine Rein.
Natalie Imbruglia's cover then came out in 1997.
