"Ready Steady Go" was used as the second (first in the U. S. Adult Swim version) opening song to the Fullmetal Alchemist anime. It was featured as a song in the Japan-exclusive Nintendo DS launch music video game, Daigasso! Band Brothers, along with the Japan-exclusive 2005 iNiS music video game Osu! Tatakae!
