The Muppets' Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem performed the song on episode 2.9 of "The Muppet Show" featuring Madeline Kahn, for use as a UK spot.

The band had eight years of regular chart hits, in both the United States, where their music was played on top-40, easy listening, and country music outlets, and throughout the English-speaking world including the UK, Canada and South Africa. Their music spanned several genres, mostly novelty songs and acoustic ballads in their early years; their greatest success came with their later material, mostly consisting of disco-influenced soft rock, which the band recorded under the shortened name "Dr. Hook". Dr Hook recently announced that they will be celebrating their 50th Anniversary with the Dr. Hook 50th Anniversary World Tour
