** In 1994, the band was going to re-record "Only Dying", an early demo dating from when they were still called Mighty Joe Young, for the soundtrack of ''Film/TheCrow''. After Brandon Lee's accidental death while filming the movie, the song title and some of the lyrics started [[DistancedFromCurrentEvents seeming unfortunate in that context]]; They instead licensed "Big Empty", from their newest album, ''Purple'', for the film. The demo of the song leaked, and was eventually made a bonus track on a deluxe edition of ''Core''.

** Dean and Robert [=DeLeo=] had already been planning their TheBandMinusTheFace side-project Talk Show while STP's ''Tiny Music...'' was still being completed, and had to choose which of the songs they were working on they'd bring to STP and which they'd use for Talk Show. According to Dean, "Big Bang Baby" could have been a Talk Show song and "Everybody Loves My Car" could have been by Stone Temple Pilots, instead of the other way around.
