[edit] Other appearances

In 2002 the song "Life's What You Make It" was featured in the Rockstar Games video game, Grand Theft Auto Vice City.

In 2003 No Doubt released a cover version of "It's My Life" which became a major international hit.

Brenner and Hollis received co-credits for Alex Gold's 2003 song "LA Today" (featuring Phil Oakey), probably due to a line being lifted from "Today" ("L.A. today, it's a dream away" versus "Today today, it's a dream away").
