Anni-Frid Lyngstad of ABBA was one of the backing vocalists singing the words "Moviestar, oh Moviestar, ooh".
- The song was covered by the French-German duo Stereo Total on their 1995 release Oh Ah! and used on the soundtrack to the romantic comedy movie The Tao of Steve (2000).
- The German synthpop band And One covered it on their 1997 album Nordhausen.
- In 1984 the Spanish singer Miguel Gallardo made a new adaptation. He called the song "Tu Amante o Tu Enemigo". The lyrics have nothing to do with the original in English but retain the melody.
- The song was used in Nissan commercials on the Swedish TV Channel TV4 in 1996 and 1997.
