"Black on Black" appeared in a different form on the soundtrack of the film 9½ Weeks (1986).

"Black on Black" starts with a looped sample from Gregorio Allegri's work Miserere mei, Deus.

Heart recorded a cover version of sorts with "Black on Black II" which became the most noteworthy version of the song as a Top 5 Billboard Rock Chart hit [1] on their eleventh studio album Desire Walks On (1993). The Heart version is similar in structure but in a more heavy metal style and some minor changes to verses. On this version Dalbello provided backing vocals and shared writing credit with the Wilson sisters.

David Gilmour of Pink Floyd guests on guitar on the last song of the album, "Immaculate Eyes".
