In 1974 Dyer and Scotts's pop group Jigsaw recorded the song as an album track on their 1974 studio album; I've Seen The Film, I've Read The Book.

The song has since been covered by many artists. Most notably by the US group Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods also in 1974 (peaking at #15 on the Billboard Hot 100), and the British indie dance/indie pop band Saint Etienne with an alternative dance-pop arrangement in 1993 (peaking at #23 on the UK Singles Chart as a double a-side with "Hobart Paving").
