Cover versions


The lyrics "Take your hands off me / I don't belong to you" were used in Legião Urbana's song "Será" on their 1985 debut album.
The song was covered by English artist David Gray and released on his successful 1998 album White Ladder. It was the album's fifth proper and final single and reached #26 on the UK Singles Chart. Gray's version, like his live performances, features additional lines at the end from the Van Morrison songs "Madame George" and "Into the Mystic". These additions contribute to a run time of 8:58, which is just under four minutes longer than the original; as such, the single featured a shorter radio edit. In addition, Gray's version omits the comma out of the title.
Marc Almond sang the song with Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra on the 2001 album Small World, Big Band.
Japanese duo Salon Music and American duo Sparks covered the song for Salon Music's 1988 album O Boy.
Nouvelle Vague covered the song on their 2009 album 3.
