Legacy
Billboard ranked the song at #6 on its All Time Top 100 and #1 on Top 50 Sexiest Songs Of All Time.
The revamped bossa nova version of the song was released on the 2002 Olivia duet album (2) as a bonus track; this version replaces the original in latest tours of Newton-John. A Newton-John duet with Jane Lynch was displayed in the episode "Bad Reputation" of the television series Glee.
Most recently, in 2010, Matthew Wilkening of AOL Radio ranked the song at #39 on the list of the 100 Worst Songs Ever, stating that "An entire generation's leg-warmered, pastel spandex shame is laid bare in just under four minutes."
The instrumental version of the song featured in a 1984 advert for the Talbot Samba car on British television.
