Cliff Richard Didn't Know His Song Was in GTA 6

Cliff Richard did not know that his song “Devil Woman” was connected to GTA 6. The track appeared in the Netflix Extended Look, but the 86-year-old singer only learned about it after relatives mentioned the news. He also had not understood that GTA 6 was a game rather than a television show.

How Cliff Richard discovered GTA 6

In an interview with The Times, Richard summarized the discovery by saying he was simply told that it had happened. According to the singer, his nephew’s sons were the ones who informed him. Their reaction to the track also caught his attention because, in Richard’s words, they did not realize he could sing like that.

Even after being told about GTA 6, Richard still did not fully understand what the project was. He asked whether the “show” was actually a game show and one of the biggest programs on television. The confusion indicates that the singer had not been following the game before “Devil Woman” appeared in the Extended Look.

The source does not detail how the music arrangement was handled or how much Richard knew about the partnership before the presentation. His comments focus on the moment his family told him about the song’s appearance. There is also no information about any direct involvement by the singer in producing the Extended Look.

A 1976 song reaches a new audience

“Devil Woman” was originally released in 1976 and turns 50 in 2026. Richard was excited by the possibility that younger listeners could discover his work through GTA 6. He believes this may stop people from viewing his name as something that belongs only to the past, while still recognizing how that past shaped the present.

The track’s appearance in the Extended Look reportedly produced a measurable effect beyond the presentation itself. According to the report cited by GameSpot, Spotify streams of “Devil Woman” rose sharply after the August showing. The summary does not provide a stream count or percentage for that increase.

The situation highlights how GTA 6’s music selection can introduce older recordings to an audience that did not experience their original releases. In this case, the artist himself was surprised by the song’s new journey. Richard learned about it through a younger generation within his own family.

What this changes for GTA 6 players

The comments do not change the release date, platforms, or access details for GTA 6. The game remains scheduled for November 19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, according to GameSpot. The news instead adds context to the use of “Devil Woman” and the musical impact of the Extended Look.

The official score will also receive a separate release connected to the game. Justice’s score is scheduled for December 11 and will be available through streaming and physical media. The source does not directly connect that album to the inclusion of “Devil Woman.”

It remains unknown how “Devil Woman” will be used within the game beyond its Extended Look appearance, or whether Richard now plans to learn more about GTA 6. No details were provided about the process that brought the track into the project. Cliff Richard made the comments to The Times, with GameSpot reporting them via Dexerto.
