This song from 1970 is reaching a whole new audience after appearing in HBO's 'The Last of Us'
Linda Ronstadt’s “Long, Long Time” appeared not once but three times in Sunday’s episode of “The Last of Us.” And fans of HBO’s newest hit were clearly moved by Ronstadt’s song, as streams of her ballad have ballooned since the episode premiered. Between 11 p.m. ET and midnight on Sunday, Spotify streams of “Long, Long Time” increased 4,900% compared to the week prior, the platform reported this week.
Around the time the fourth season of “Stranger Things” was released in late May, “Running Up That Hill” began to net millions of streams a day. Über-popular series, particularly those with large Gen Z viewership, have shown a unique power to resurrect certain songs, particularly on TikTok. “Euphoria” introduced younger viewers to the ’70s jam “Right Down the Line” by Gerry Rafferty, a song Zendaya’s character Rue grooves to more than once in the series’ second season.
