"Two Cathedrals." Great episode. Wikipedia lists a number of other uses of the song.

One of the finest hours of television drama in history.

Although there's a heavy rain storm, Barlett refuses the coat Charlie hands him. Charlie then takes off his.

The song appeared in the second-season episode "Out Where the Buses Don't Run" of Miami Vice, the third-season episode "I Coulda Been a Defendant" of Due South, and the second season finale of The West Wing, "Two Cathedrals".[10] In each instance, it is used over the climactic scenes of the episode. It was also featured in the 1991 film McBain, the 2001 movie Spy Game and most recently in the series finale, "START", of The Americans as well as the episode "Say Again Your Last" in SEAL Team. It was used as the title music to the 1992 BBC drama series Civvies. The song also appeared in the series finale of Supernatural. This song and album art were featured during the fourth season episode "Goodwill" of Halt and Catch Fire.
