• Note: The song, "All the Man That I Need", would go on to be re-recorded (in a shortened, re-arranged version) by Whitney Houston, and would become an across-the-board smash hit in America, reaching the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100, the Adult Contemporary, the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and the Cash Box Hot 100. Houston's spin on the song nixes the guitar solo, opting instead for a screaming sax break by Kenny G.

CBS Sports used "Jacki's Theme: There's No Stopping Us" as the theme for its highlights of the 1982 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament following the championship game. In the final, North Carolina defeated Georgetown 63–62, with the Tar Heels scoring the winning points on a jumper by freshman Michael Jordan with 16 seconds remaining. The game featured several future National Basketball Association stars and Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame inductees, including Jordan, James Worthy and Sam Perkins of North Carolina, and Patrick Ewing of Georgetown, along with legendary coaches Dean Smith (North Carolina) and John Thompson (Georgetown). Five years later, CBS first used "One Shining Moment" for tournament highlights, a tradition which continues to this day. The 1982 NCAA tournament was CBS' first after NBC Sports held the broadcast rights from 1969 to 1981. Daft Punk sampled "Il Macquillage Lady" for one of their track for their Aerodynamic from the album Discovery.
