'King Kong' was covered by Tom Waits. This version was released on his 2006 album Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards.

'Casper The Friendly Ghost' was featured in the 1995 cult film Kids.

'Rocket Ship' was covered by The Dead Milkmen on their 1987 album Bucky Fellini, one of the first widespread covers of a Johnston song.

'Worried Shoes' was covered by Yeah Yeah Yeahs frontwoman Karen O. This version was released on the soundtrack to the 2009 film adaptation of Where the Wild Things Are.
