The music was said to have been illegally sampled by Michael Cretu in a track on his 1990 new-age album MCMXC a.D.. The track, "Sadeness (Part I)", was also released as a single.
In 1994, Polydor Germany agreed to an out of court settlement with Cretu due to his infringement of Polydor's "right of personality" due to his plagiarism, which resulted in Cretu paying compensation to the original creator of the sample.[1]
