[5] Jane's version of the song was rereleased as a CD single in the United Kingdom in 1993, accompanied by a new remix by A Guy Called Gerald.

In 1992, "It's a Fine Day" was covered by English electronic music group Opus III, whose lead vocalist was Kirsty Hawkshaw.

The single reached number five in the United Kingdom, and number-one in Greece and on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart.

At the time of the release, the producers (i.e., Kevin Dodds, Ian Munro, and Nigel Walton -- the other three member of Opus III) couldn't legally reveal themselves, as they were under contract as A.S.K.

Instead, the group spun a wholly fabricated story that the producers had stumbled on classically-trained vocalist Kirsty Hawkshaw, hearing her sing while they were up a tree recording the sounds of birds on a DAT recorder at a Spiral Tribe rave in the Hertfordshire woods to sample for a new track.

When "It's a Fine Day" reached number ten on the UK Singles Chart, the band performed on the Top of the Pops, which had been Hawkshaw's childhood dream.

[13] Kirsty Hawkshaw has since remade the song three times: in 2002 with Mike Koglin, in 2008 with Kinky Roland, and in 2019 as "Fine Day 2K19".

[18] "It's a Fine Day" was also a top-20 hit in Austria (14), France (14), Germany (18) and on the Eurochart Hot 100, where it peaked at number 16 in March 1992.

Larry Flick from Billboard felt the "quirky dance act" has made a "near-perfect, radio-friendly ditty", noting that it's "empowered with a potent blend of, ethereal female vocals, a hypnotic hook, and an electro-hip beat.

"[21] Andy Kastanas from The Charlotte Observer named it "a dance-pop tune with "rave" undertones and pretty female vocals that'll make your day better than fine.

"[22] Marisa Fox from Entertainment Weekly described it as a "bubble-gummy dance track", adding that "this self-described ambient-techno group lives up to the genre’s esoteric side.

"[10] Dave Simpson from Melody Maker complimented it as "a masterstroke in conception and execution", stating that "in five years' time, anyone searching for the sound and spirit of early '92 won't be far from "It's a Fine Day'".

"[25] Wendi Cermak from The Network Forty wrote, "Like nothing else out there, this track is simultaneously spacey and driving, bordering on the current Euro-rave movement.

"[28] And Roger Morton declared it as "a seductive piece of lightweight house, which takes Crystal Waters style breezy beats and nursery school melodies, and showers them with blossom and balloons.

"[31] AllMusic editor MacKenzie Wilson said the song is "melodically enchanting with loopy trance vibes and textured synth waves", noting Kirsty Hawkshaw's "dove-like vocals transcended into freewheeling soundscapes".

The video features Kirsty Hawkshaw with her standout shaved head and bodysuit, performing and dancing against a backdrop of what is supposed to be a fine day.

In 1998, producers Arthur Pellegrini, Carmine Sorrentino, and Dave Carlotti released a remix of the song on the Italian Hitland label.

German house producer Keanu Silva sampled the song on the track "Fine Day" in July 2018.
