Cover versions

  • The O'Kaysions released a version of the song on their 1968 debut album, Girl Watcher.[4]
  • A series of 1969 television commercials for Plymouth featured a jingle "Just look what Plymouth's up to now", sung by Petula Clark to the tune of "Sunday Will Never Be the Same".

gollark: My point is that presumably SolarFlame5 is worried about some activity advertising companies could do with their data, but there's not a reason Google couldn't do it too. Outside of selling data, but the issue with that is that ultimately you're (probably) worried some company will do something other than just "sell it on" with it.
gollark: I mean, that's probably not guaranteed either, but how do you know that Google won't use it for whatever evil purpose the advertising companies which might otherwise have your data would?

gollark: I mean, why do you not mind if Google has it, but do mind if other advertising companies do?
