Besides appearances on The Silent Force and The Silent Force Tour, a live version of "Jillian (I'd Give My Heart)" is the second track of Within Temptation's Black Symphony release: It is the first song of the concert in Ahoy, Rotterdam played by both Within Temptation and the Metropole Orchestra. For some other concerts from The Heart of Everything Tour, it was the opening track, merged with The Silent Force Intro. Moreover, the song is among the most frequently played live songs by the band since the release of The Silent Force. It is also the introductory theme song for the Showtime original series The Borgias.
The "Jillian (I'd Give My Heart)" song is about the Deverry Cycle fantasy novel series by Katharine Kerr set in the fictional land of Deverry.
