Stone performed a folk version of the song when she made a cameo appearance as herself in the third season of the American series American Dreams, in the episode "Starting Over", which aired on 30 January, 2005.
The song was included on the international soundtrack of the Brazilian soap opera Como uma Onda.

Critical reception
