Harrison also referenced the song in "Simply Shady", from his 1974 album Dark Horse. The song inspired one of the characters' names in the 2007 Beatles-themed film Across the Universe, Sadie (played by Dana Fuchs). The band Sexy Sadie took their name from this song. The main piano riff in the Radiohead song "Karma Police" is inspired by the piano part in this song. Cover versions When Mojo released The White Album Recovered in 2008, part of a continuing series of CDs of Beatles albums covered track-by-track by modern artists, the track was covered by Rachel Unthank and the Winterset. The disc also featured a bonus track of the same song performed by Paul Weller. The song was also covered by Anderson .Paak on multi-instrumentalist and producer Kush Mody's first album Creature Comforts (2014).
