The poem was set to music by Jolie Holland's friend Brian Miller - he did a whole album of Yeats' poems, called 'Yeats is Greats', although this is the only one I've heard. Jolie covered it on her first album, 'Catalpa', and later taught the song to David. I think Brian Miller also wrote the music for Jolie's song 'Crush in the Ghetto'.
