Host Christopher Lee introduced the segment as being `` not for the squeamish ''. The song was later sampled by Scott Brown in the song `` Ice Cold 2 ''.

American rapper and producer Kanye West used a sample of the record as part of an intro for his song `` Cold '' during his set at the Glastonbury Festival 2015. A cover version is heard in a commercial for Wendy 's that debuted during Fox 's broadcast of Super Bowl LI on February 5, 2017. Rapper B.o.B sampled the chorus of the song in 2010. The single version is a second shorter than the album version, but adds an orchestra track.
