Chosen One is a song by Smog on his Julius Caesar-album. Since it's release it's been covered several times, amongst others by The Flaming Lips in a record store in Minneapolis on December 12, 1993, a recording which later appeared on their EP Due to High Expectations... the Flaming Lips Are Providing Needles for Your Balloons. German indie-pop singer Monta has also covered Chosen One during concerts, but the material remains unreleased.

Later Chosen One was included in a Peel Session which transmitted November 12, 1997. This new version was featured as a b-side on the Cold Blooded Old Times-single as well as on the rarities compilation Accumulation: None.
