With 360 responses, it found that most respondents aged 5–19 during GTO initial airing could accurately finish the hook, with an over 80% success rate for those who had been aged 14, 16, and 17.[21]

"Poison" has appeared in subsequent GTO projects.

The announcement caused "POISON" to trend on X, alongside "Sorimachi Takashi" (反町隆史), "Onizuka Eikichi" (鬼塚英吉), and "Sorimachi-san" (反町さん).[24]

Internet meme

In early 2018, a post was made to the "0-Year Old Childcare" thread of Japanese textboard 2channel, stating that "Poison" could ease crying children and even put them to sleep if played for longer. As users of the site corroborated the song's effectiveness, the story spread around the Internet.[25] Sorimachi was told of the phenomenon several times by his management and others, and said on a November 2019 episode of : "If only I had known earlier, maybe I could've used it on my own kids when they were little. My older child always cried [...] If I'd have known, I would've just put on my own song."[5]

In an interview with, pedagog of Saitama University attributed the song's ability to ease children to a "clear" rise and fall of sound in the song's basso continuo.[26] In July 2021, Sorimachi's talent management company Ken-On released a YouTube video in which they tested the trend with Sorimachi. The video opens with Sorimachi reacting to clips showing the song effective on children from Japan, Brazil, the U.S., the United Kingdom, and New Zealand. Sorimachi then video calls with the head of the, who, similarly to Shimura, theorizes that the high frequency in the intro's rising and falling guitar riff is able to stimulate and calm babies up to two years old.[27] [28] As of November 2023, the video has surpassed 2 million views.[28]

To promote High Life, Sorimachi embarked on the Live Tour 98 High Life throughout Japan, performing "Poison" among other songs from the album. The tour's final day, performed at the Nakano Sunplaza, was released to video on February 3, 1999. A DVD release followed on December 20, 2000.[29] [30] According to Goo Imatopi and Livedoor News, Sorimachi was intended to perform "Poison" on NHK's Kōhaku Uta Gassen, but was unable to since the song's title conflicted with the 1998 Wakayama Arsenic poison case, a murder case with heavy impact in Japan.[31] [32]

"Poison: Iitai Koto mo Ienai Konna Yo no Naka wa" has been remixed and covered by various other artists. It is the lead track of the techno remix album Cosmetic Dramatic (2009)[33] and the 14th track on rock remix cover album Yanki Rock Non Stop Mix (2010).[34] As a television ending theme, "Poison" has been recorded in drama-related albums, including on Climax Love Story: Chapter 1 (2012), the first drama theme compilation album in a series of two,[35] and on Love Story: Dramatic Mix (2018) via a cover.[36] The song has also been covered during on-stage performances, such as by in 2015[37] and by Coldrain featuring in 2017.[38]

"Poison" has become a staple song of comedian Takashi Okamura, often performed by him during All Night Nippon (ANN) song festivals hosted by his comedy group Ninety-nine;[39] by October 2021, Okamura had performed the song six times.[40] At the 2023 ANN festival, Sorimachi joined Okamura in performance of the song. Okamura, who had suffered a rupture of the achilles tendon on his right foot, sat on a chair with a visible cast and sang whilst Sorimachi stood. Okamura described the joint performance as something he couldn't have considered "even in [his] dreams."[41]
