Although never released as an official single, the song has charted on two occasions on the UK Singles Chart. Fifteen years after the release of the album, the song charted at No. 71 in August 2009[1] following its appearance on a commercial for Virgin Media.[2] Two years later, the song spent a further four weeks on the chart, reaching a new peak of No. 47, when it was used on the "Dust to Dust" trailer for Gears of War 3.[1] In September 2011, "Into Dust" made its début appearance on the Irish Singles Chart, where it reached a peak of No. 40.[3]
