@ami_angelwings do covers count? 👉👈
So there's this song, by reasonably successful Australian band The Presets: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GytGiD_8l8M
And then during the covid lockdowns, a smaller profile band from a smaller Australian city covered it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkgUP_FScDk
(Voyager later went on to represent Australia in Eurovision, which is I am told pretty much everything they ever wanted)
@ami_angelwings (alternate answer, but I feel this is cheating): Dune.
I was introduced to it by the 1992 game Dune 2: Battle for Arrakis, a game my dad bought. It was the predecessor of the modern RTS genre (many argue that Herzog Zwei was actually the foundational game, but in my opinion having played both, 1992's Dune 2 essentially plays basically the same as 2010's Starcraft 2. Herzog Zwei does not. Anyway, pedants hopefully headed off, onward we go...)
That game had a massive influence on young me, far outside of the actual novel.
My profile pic is a cosplay of a take on the fremen from this game, where big visors were critical.
