- Covered Up:
- They recorded and released "Eve of Destruction" first, but Barry McGuire's cover became much better known.
- Inverted with "It Ain't Me Babe", which was originally recorded by Bob Dylan.
- Signature Song: "Happy Together," of course.
- Sampled Up: The drum breakdowns on "I'm Chief Kamanawanalea (We're the Royal Macadamia Nuts)" from Battle of the Bands are a stock hip-hop sample.
- Suspiciously Similar Song: Queen's "You're My Best Friend" sounds quite a bit like "The Story of Rock & Roll". The two songs' openings are almost identical.
