The track has appeared in a number of media uses, including in the TV series "Jam", "Top Gear" and "Nip/Tuck"; films "Traffic", "28 Days Later" and "Drive"; and David Firth's animation "Salad Fingers".
Frou Frou sampled the track in their song "Hear Me Out" in 2002, as did Burial in 2006 for "Forgive."

I listened to this every single night for 9 month while going through stage 2 aggressive cancer,,, I always thought if I die while listening to this it can't all be bad, luckily a miracle happened and I'm here now to talk about it... remember it can happen to anyone anywhere so make the most of each day and don't ever forget to tell loved ones how important they are to you. โ

Stay strong, ive lost many ive known to cancer. Life cannot be taken for granted, but most of us do.
@iainstevenson6658
I too have just recently come through such a cancer, and I too discovered this sonic hymn when googling around "ending". Then a Macmillan nurse shared with me a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson - "It is the wounded oyster that mends her shell with pearl."
Thank you for your post. Stay strong. There is always Hope.
Peace and Praises

Listening to this whilst remembering the most wonderful, gentle man I have ever known. My father. He died little over a week ago. I miss him beyond words. I am broken. I wish I could have been there when he passed but I wasnt. A part of me has died with him. Rest in peace Dad, we will see each other again. I love you.
@adamz0037
I hope you find comfort and peace during this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had a dad like you did. He died 7 years ago and I am crying now thinking of him. It is good to hear music that links you both. My father and I shared a lot of music and after he passed I kept hearing music that I wanted him to hear. I finally realized he was sending it to me. You can continue his life by carrying on. It does get better with time. Talk to him.
