A lot of the newfound attention to this deep cut from Linda's discography can be attributed to the fact that the song was featured in The Last of Us, HBO Max's new thriller series based on the video game of the same name. According to Spotify, the song saw a 4900% surge in streaming after the episode it was featured in aired.

Per Wikipedia, when it originally released, "Long Long Time" was on Billboard’s Top 100 for 12 weeks and earned Linda a Grammy nomination for Best Contemporary Female Vocal Performance. Much like "Running Up That Hill" with Kate Bush and Stranger Things, it appears as though Linda's track is benefiting from careful music curation in another hit streaming series.
