I had never heard of the show, and when I looked it up - realized it was from the mid-90's (starring Sarah Jessica Parker). I thought how odd it was that they used my music for an episode that was 15 years old. Turns out they redid a couple of the seasons and posted them on Hulu for streaming. Personally I had never heard of or watched the show, but maybe it was a big enough hit that they decided to bring it back? Anyway - here is the ending of episode 11 from season 2 where they used my music. I actually felt particularly flattered since there was no dialogue over my music, and they used over 2 minutes of the song and it was th...
