Sandie Shaw
Are You Ready To Be Heartbroken?
Released on Polydor in 1986 produced by Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley shortly after they finished work on Easy Pieces.
I may be on the record as not liking this version, but that doesn't mean it's bad, or that I'm not flattered and excited that Sandi chose to sing it.

Tori Amos
Rattlesnakes
Tori recorded her unique version of Rattlesnakes for her 2001 release 'Strange Little Girls', an album of songs written about women, by men. She performed the song on Jay Leno's tonight show, which is the closest I've ever been to appearing on that show.

Toby Martin & Anita Spring
Let's Get Lost
This was recorded for the 2003 movie 'Danny Deckchair' and with it being an Australian film, they had an all Australian soundtrack, so 'Let's Get Lost' was rerecorded (apparently very close to the original) by Toby and Anita.

North Atlantic Explorers
I Will Not Leave You Alone
Finally someone else other than my wife agrees that this song was too good to be on the b-side of Like Lovers Do... North Atlantic Explorers included it on their 2005 album 'Skylines'.

AGK
Rattlesnakes
AGK are from London. iTunes calls them 'folk' and MySpace says 'electronica' so I shouldn't really be surprised that they've sung one of our songs. It's included on their 2008 release 'Further South'.
