Two months after Montgomery's version reached number one, American male R&B and pop group All-4-One released their version of "I Can Love You Like That" by Atlantic and Blitzz, and it reached a peak of number five on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 1995. It was produced by David Foster, selling 600,000 copies domestically and being certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[5][6] Despite a live performance on the BBC's long-running music programme Top of the Pops, it only peaked at number 33 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the band's last top-40 entry there.

Critical reception

Steve Baltin from Cash Box wrote, "All-4-One had one of the biggest hits of last year with the chart-topping "I Swear". The first single from their forthcoming And The Music Speaks album continues the remarkably middle-of-the-road sound they put forth last year. As a result, similar chart success is likely. Though appeal of the same magnitude might be harder to achieve. Simple and Wonder Bread white, “I Can Love You Like That” is a huge ballad."[7]
