The song has been featured in many films:
- The Saint, just before the sensual scene
- The Watcher, in a camera store when David Allen Griffin (Keanu Reeves) is seducing his next victim, an employee of the store
- Can't Hardly Wait, upon the entrance of Jennifer Love Hewitt's character Amanda Beckett to the party that makes up the core of the film
- A Man Apart
- Cruel Intentions
- Dogtown and Z-Boys, in the segment about Pacific Ocean Park pier
- Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, when Matthew McConaughey has long hair in the bar.
It has appeared in a number of TV shows too: it was the opening theme song of the short-lived television series Titans, during the opening credits of episode #221 "Friends in Deed" of Beverly Hills, 90210, during the Daria episode "The Invitation", and on promos for The History Channel's new series, Cities of the Underworld, during the episode "Tess, Lies and Videotape" of Roswell, as well as the FX series Over There. The song plays in the background in the British sitcom Game On, where Mathew Malone seduces a teddy bear.
In 1998, the song formed part of the soundtrack for the first episode of the second series of Chris Morris's radio programme Blue Jam.

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or radio:
“Laughter on American television has taken the place of the chorus in Greek tragedy.... In other countries, the business of laughing is left to the viewers. Here, their laughter is put on the screen, integrated into the show. It is the screen that is laughing and having a good time. You are simply left alone with your consternation.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The radio ... goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten and often eleven o’clock in the evening. This is certainly a sign that the grown-ups have infinite patience, but it also means that the power of absorption of their brains is pretty limited, with exceptions, of course—I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. One or two news bulletins would be ample per day! But the old geese, well—I’ve said my piece!”
—Anne Frank (1929–1945)
