Surfs [as C'est grâce à toi]
Claude François [as Une Fille et des fleurs]
Graham Parker [Live At Marble Arch]
Stray Cats [B-side of Rock This Town]
Phil Collins [n°1 UK, B & NL; triggering a songwriting partnership with Lamont; result: Two Hearts, the Oscar winning theme of film Buster (\'88)]
Dixie Chicks [in film Runaway Bride]
Boyzone [some titles lose appeal with every cover added]
