* {{Sexbot}}: Marty Balin ''claims'' that "Plastic Fantastic Lover" was a paean to his new stereo system (or maybe TV--the story varies), but the description of it as a lover with "chrome-colored clothes", and the references to "Data Control and IBM" make it clear that he was trying to imply a little more--possibly influenced by some of Kantner's SF collection.

** "Embryonic Journey" was used (among other films) in the series finale of Series/{{Friends}}.
*** "White Rabbit" and "Somebody To Love" are also well-used in media. Odds are good that, if you're watching a program about or set in the Sixties, you'll hear one of those two songs. [[AnachronismStew Even if it's the very early Sixties]].
