"Chosen One" is a song by Smog on his Julius Caesar album. Since its release it has been covered several times, including a version by The Flaming Lips in a Minneapolis record store on December 12, 1993, a recording which later appeared on their EP Due to High Expectations... the Flaming Lips Are Providing Needles for Your Balloons. German indie-pop singer Monta has also covered "Chosen One" during concerts, but the material remains unreleased.

Later "Chosen One" was included in a Peel session broadcast on November 12, 1997. This new version was featured as a B-side on the "Cold Blooded Old Times" single as well as on the rarities compilation Accumulation: None.
