The melody of the song, as it is usually sung, formed the basis for Boney M.'s hit "Hooray! Hooray! It's a Holi-Holiday" in 1979, and for Alexandra Burke's song "Start Without You". The tune is also found in children's music, including the Sunday school song "O-B-E-D-I-E-N-C-E", "Radio Lollipop" by the German group die Lollipops, and the Barney & Friends songs "Alphabet Soup" (using only the tune of the first verse) and "If I Had One Wish" (which uses both verses).
