It was more widely popularized when it was re-recorded and released by Bowie on his album Let's Dance (1983).
Bowie decided to put the song on his album when Pop, his friend and musical collaborator, was in financial straits (due to his struggle with drug addiction) and was close to facing bankruptcy.
Bowie decided to release the song on Let's Dance so that Pop could collect half the royalties (as co-writer of the track) and get back on his feet financially.
The UK single release reached number 2 for one week in 1983, being kept off the top position by 'Every Breath You Take' by The Police. The US release reached number 10.
