As Stereogum notes, Van Etten recorded the cover, plus an original song, for the 2020 documentary,
Feels Good Man, about the creator of Pepe the Frog. (It’s unclear if this had any bearing on Van Etten’s song choice, but Johnston designed a cartoon frog of his own, “Jeremiah the Innocent,” who appears on the famous
Hi, How Are You? mural in Austin; Jeremiah, however, has not been adopted as a favored meme of the alt-right.)
