"Freaks" was featured in a 2014 viral video recorded by Russell Bauer, "When Mama Isn't Home". In the video, Bauer is seen playing the song on trombone, with his son accompanying him by slamming an oven door to the beat. The video inspired remixes and variations of the video with other songs, and was also used as the basis of a commercial by German retailer Otto.
