Its 1987 re-released version features the extra lyrics: “such a good time / a really good time”. Writing about the use of the song in 1986′s Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Jonathan Bernstein said, “Never a hit, this slice of Swiss-made tomfoolery with its varispeed vocal effects and driving percussion was first used by John Hughes to illustrate the mouthwatering must-haveness of Cameron’s dad’s Ferrari. Since then, it has become synonymous with avarice. Every time a movie, TV show or commercial wants to underline the jaw-dropping impact of a hot babe or sleek auto, that synth-drum starts popping and that deep voice rumbles, ‘Oh yeah . . .’”. The song featured in the 1987 film The Secret of My Success, starring Michael J. Fox, although it did not appear on the soundtrack album.
