On LP It Never Rains In Southern California.
Covers:
Hollies [n°2 UK & NL]
Radiohead [in Creep; Rondor Music, publisher of The Air That I Breathe, contacted Radiohead for at least an explanation, gladly given by the boys; for admitting the influence, Rondor mildly claimed but a tiny fraction of the Creep revenues; what an example!]
Simply Red [two versions, the second one based upon John Mellencamp's Jack And Diane]
Lana Del Rey [as Get Free on album Lust For Life; no, she did not have to credit Thom Yorke]
