Cliff Richard sees music resurgence via GTA 6 soundtrack

British singer Cliff Richard has experienced a significant surge in popularity at age 86 following the inclusion of his 1976 single “Devil Woman” in the GTA 6 Extended Look on Netflix. Since the feature, daily streams for the song have increased by 325%.

Despite the commercial success, Richard admitted in an interview with The Times that he was unaware of the Grand Theft Auto franchise. He expressed confusion regarding the medium, asking if the phenomenon was a major television game show.

Rockstar Games has included the track as part of the extensive soundtrack for the upcoming game, which is scheduled to launch on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series consoles. Richard noted that while he belongs to the past, he is pleased that his music remains relevant to modern audiences.
