On season five of American Idol, finalist Chris Daughtry was accused of performing Live's rendition of Johnny Cash's "I Walk the Line" and calling it his own. One week later, Daughtry acknowledged it was not his own rendition, even saying Live was one of his favorite bands. In May 2006, Live appeared on The Howard Stern Show and addressed this issue.
An unreleased song by the band, entitled "Hold Me Up", is featured in the Kevin Smith movie Zack and Miri Make a Porno during an emotional scene between Zack and Miri.
