The Girls Aloud one was a cover of one by the Pointer Sisters.

I don't think it was Kate Bush. I thought it was more like an Elaine Paige type person. I could be wrong though. I could just google, I suppose...

where are they now. Probably in their mid thirties wondering how to put on their trousers properly. As for
STAY:
Stay - Eternal
Stay - Shakespeare's Sister
is all i can think of so far..
And google I did - Jennifer Rush. Plus several other songs with the same name that I can't recall.

ONE:
One - U2
One - Metallica
Uno - Muse (technically the same)
where are they now. Probably in their mid thirties wondering how to put on their trousers properly.
Mid thirties? I'd say more like late twenties. They were only about ten, and that was around 1990ish.
Oh and did E17 have a 'STAY' too?

THe Ethiopians had a song called ONE, that was a.k.a. ONE LOVE, so add that to both lists.
What a Wonderful World

Sam Cooke's was just called Wonderful World, I'm afraid.

Pulp recorded a Yesterday too. I'm sure there are plenty more. "Stay" was also the name of David Bowie single off Station to Station. That DJ fella Sash had a hit of the same name in the late nineties.

Along with Bowie.
Bernard Butler of Suede and McAlmont & Butler also had a nice Stay.
The Drifters one might have been Please Stay i'm unsure. Another Bacharach classic.

Volume's from 1962

The somehing happens is called 'Parachute'.
House of Pain had a 'Jump' ...or was it 'Jump, Jump'?
Apparently every song but the title track of U2s All that you can't leave behind had a title taken from some other song ...not deliberately ...just lack of imagination.
I've always loved the way Half Man Half Biscuit can take the p1ss out of other peoples titles
