"Don't Let It Go to Your Head" is covered by Lilyjets, a Norwegian girl group, as a single[5] from their debut album 3rd Floor (2006).[6] They also produced an official music video.[7] In 2009 the song was covered by Jordin Sparks on her second album Battlefield (2009).[8][9] Shortly after Jordin's album was released Dobson said, "Jordin Sparks just did [that song], which was on Sunday Love, which was very cool. She did kind of, like, a more R&B version of it, which I think is really nice, actually. It was really cool that she didn't try and do a rock version of it, and she did what she's more comfortable with, which I thought was awesome."[10]
