-*Set to include in the album was a rendition of the song 'Flashdance...What A Feeling' which was performed by the band at live shows. The band was forced to remove the cover from the album due to legal technicalities. The band is now not even permitted to perform the song live.{{fact|date=March 2011}}
-In an interview:
-Interviewer:  What was the problem with calling the track on the new Fantomas album "What A Feeling" (from Flashdance)?
-Mike Patton: That was a rumor. We never recorded that silly song.
