<P> On Saturday Night Live, Season - 1 Ep. 3: John Belushi performed a full - length impression of Cocker singing this song . </P> <P> The cult PBS film The Lathe of Heaven (from 1980) uses the original recording of the song . The main character (George Orr), who can manipulate reality with his dreams, comes upon a 45 of the song at a novelty shop run by an alien . The alien hands George the 45 saying "Help is available ." The song plays in the soundtrack and morphs into a synthesizer version . The film was out of circulation for over 20 years . When it was finally re-aired on PBS and released on DVD in 2001, many fans were upset that the original Beatles recording was replaced by a singer with an acoustic guitar . This was due to changes in publishing rights that have occurred since 1980 involving the dissolution of The Beatles' original Northern Songs and the acquisition by Sony / ATV (partly owned by the Jackson family). </P>
