Butterfly Boucher recorded a duet with David Bowie singing his song "Changes", on the Shrek 2: Motion Picture Soundtrack, released in May 2004, for the film of the same name. Although AllMusic's Heather Phares was not impressed with this version which has "the dubious distinction of being average of great ... not even Bowie's cameo on 'Changes' can elevate it". Boucher's own songs have been featured on various TV programs. In July to August 2004, short-lived ABC series, The Days used "Life is Short" as its opening theme. TV drama series Grey's Anatomy featured both "Never Leave Your Heart Alone" and "Life is Short" in its first season (2005), and debuted "A Bitter Song" from her then-unreleased album Scary Fragile in the third season episode "Drowning on Dry Land" (2007). In addition, the title song "Scary Fragile" also featured in the pilot for the ABC family show, Switched at Birth. The song "Gun for a Tongue" plays in the opening credits for The Lying Game.
Flutterby was the source of songs on the fantasy television series Charmed. "Life is Short" was used in the episode "Spin City", and the episode Show Ghouls features a version of the track "I Can't Make Me" remixed by Chris Lord-Alge, which is later included in soundtrack album, Charmed: The Book of Shadows.
Boucher co-wrote several songs and appears on Dawson Wells' debut album Re: No Subject, for which she played instruments, including drums, guitar, piano and keyboards, tambourine and bass. She provided lead and backup vocals on most of the songs, including a duet with Dawson called "Gracey and Henry Martin's First Summer". Compositions she penned with Wells on that album are "Say Anything", "Silly One", "Being in Love". An accomplished arranger and producer, Boucher additionally co-produced this album with Wells.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“The question confronting the Church today is not any longer whether the man in the street can grasp a religious message, but how to employ the communications media so as to let him have the full impact of the Gospel message.”
—Pope John Paul II (b. 1920)
“Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
