"Yoru no Entotsu" was covered by Japanese singer/songwriter Chisato Moritaka in her 1989 album Hijitsuryokuha Sengen, based on Carnation's 1988 re-recording. Though it was never released as a single, the song has been a regular staple in Moritaka's live set list. The music video features Moritaka performing the song with Carnation.[3]
For the 2013 Carnation tribute album Nande Kimi wa Boku yori Boku no Koto Kuwashii no?, Moritaka and Carnation re-recorded the song; this time, with Moritaka supplying the drum tracks.[4][5] This version is also available in her 2015 self-covers DVD Love Vol. 8.[6] She uploaded the promo video on her YouTube channel on September 7, 2014.[7]
