Hi Tom,
I know "I Fall To You" was covered, but to save my life I can't recall who recorded it (other than me).
"Cheryl's Goin Home," however is my second most recorded song. Sonny and Cher did it, so did The Cascades, Noel Harrison and a kick-ass group called The Blues Project. A group called The Rokes did an Italian-language version that sold a million records in Europe.
There's also an English fellow named Jon Otway who did a punk-rock cover of the song that knocks me out. About as different from my own version as you can get.
There must be at least 10 others. But they don't spring readily to mind.
As to how to get these cover versions, sorry to say your guess is as good as mine. Best of luck though.
Can any of you other members help this fellow out?

Jeff, thanks for posting this. For reasons I can't fathom, I never saw the other post.
I had seen him perform the song in a movie called "URGH! A MUSIC WAR" but never saw this TV show version.
His partner Wild Willy Plays some bone crushing guitar on this cut.
Much obliged.

Rokes video on YouTube
The Italian version of "Cheryl" by the Rokes is available on YouTube. It's called "Che Colpa Abbiamo Noi" (usual link for YouTube, search for group or song or add "watch?v=zfHJ5b9VVEA").
Did they use the Sonny & Cher music track? Definitely sounds like a Bono production, I think.
Bob, thanks for your great music. I own your first two LPs on the original label and just decided to give them a listen again this evening.
Cheers from Germany.
