Did someone do a big cover of it recently where only the song writer gets the royalties?

Yeah, P Diddy redid it and it was huge. The story is P. Diddy now pays Sting about $2000.00 a day in royalties from his version.

It’s not recent but Biggy Smalls sampled it and made a huge hip hop hit from it. Then he got shot.
