A proposed follow-up, Just Can't Get Enough (Of Jesus!!!), with more new wave and New Romantic elements, never saw official release, but some bootleg tracks have surfaced. Sonseed disbanded in 1983. As Patricia Costa, Costagliola recorded two albums, Walk Forward and Give Your Love Away, with Polichetti, Franco and Sciarra as the backing band. Nicky Sciarra became district manager of Community Board 7 in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. He died in 1993 after apparently choking on a sandwich. The band came back into the spotlight in 2008 when a recording of them performing their song "Jesus Is a Friend of Mine", from a religious TV show called The First Estate, appeared on the Dougsploitation blog, and subsequently became a YouTube hit, where it spawned several parodies. Polichetti performed the song live at the Bowery Poetry Club in New York City on November 14, 2009 with the ska-swing band . In 2011, Fox Television's hit show Glee also did a cover of the song "Jesus Is a Friend of Mine". During the Regional competition, the group "Aural Intensity" sang the song. (en)
  • I Sonseed erano una band cristiana di musica pop, formata presso la Chiesa di Nostra Signora del Perpetuo Soccorso a Brooklyn, New York, nell seconda metà degli anni '70. Il gruppo era formato da Sal Polichetti (basso, voce); sua moglie Patricia Costagliola (tastiere, voce), Frank Franco (chitarra, voce); Kevin McGillen (backup vocals) e Nicky Sciarra (batteria). Il loro unico album, First Fruit, è stato pubblicato nel 1983. Polichetti ha anche annunciato che nell'estate del 2009 i Sonseed avrebbero pubblicato un CD con la casa Arena Rock Records che include selezioni dall'originale primo album. Nicky Sciarra diventò responsabile di zona della Community Board 7 in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Morì nel 1993, apparentemente soffocato da un sandwich di formaggio salato. La band tornò alla ribalta nel 2008, quando una registrazione di una loro esibizione della canzone Jesus Is a Friend of Mine, tratta da uno spettacolo religioso TV, è apparso sul blog Dougsploitation, e successivamente è diventata una hit di YouTube, dove ha generato parecchie parodie. Polichetti ha anche eseguito il brano Live at the Bowery Poetry Club di New York City il 14 novembre 2009, con la ska-band swing Tri-State Conspiracy. (it)

Både sångerskan Nina Hagen och TV-serien Glee har spelat covers på Jesus Is A Friend of Mine. (sv)
