Noel Gallagher of Oasis adds adapted lyrics from "Octopus's Garden" to the end of their song " Whatever" during some of his live performances. It was re-released in 1976, with the A- and B-sides reversed, and credited to Reparata (no Delrons). It used vocal effects and ocean-themed sound effects to mimic the style of their 1968 UK hit, " Captain of Your Ship". Reparata and the Delrons released the song as a single in 1972 on Dart records, backed with "Your Life Is Gone". Jim Henson’s Muppets made 3 video cover versions of the song, on Sesame Street, episode 19 in 1969, The Ed Sullivan Show in March 1970, and The Muppet Show episode 312 in 1978, which was performed by Kermit the Frog, his nephew Robin the Frog, and Miss Piggy. A CD is included with the book, including an introduction by Starr, a new version of the song, the lyrics spoken as prose, and an instrumental version of the song. The book, which consists of the song's lyrics, is illustrated by Ben Cort. In 2014, Starr wrote a children's book based on and named after the song. The track, in its original form, is also available on the compilation album 1967–1970. During the guitar solo, the drum track is replaced with that of " Lovely Rita". The remix begins with Starr's vocals over the orchestration from " Good Night", then transitions into the original instrumental backing track on the line "I'd ask my friends.", with sound effects from " Yellow Submarine" added in the background.

At Starr's request, Harrison added the sound of bubbles by blowing through a straw into a glass of milk. The backing vocals by McCartney and Harrison during the guitar solo were put through compressors and limiters to create a gurgling sound. Thirty-two takes were required before the Beatles were satisfied with the track. (Take 2 of the recording, featuring this guide vocal, Starr singing the first verse three times, is track 14 on disc 2 of Anthology 3.) In the absence of George Martin, the Beatles themselves were listed as producer, with Martin's apprentice Chris Thomas present in the control room to assist. Starr also provided a temporary guide vocal on this date. The basic instrumental track was recorded 26 April 1969, with the Beatles lineup of two electric guitars (Harrison and Lennon), bass guitar (McCartney) and drums (Starr). It has also been performed by the Muppets several times in various episodes of their shows. The song, which contains the lyrics "Oh what joy for every girl and boy/Knowing they're happy and they're safe," is sometimes thought of as being a song for children, like " Yellow Submarine" or " All Together Now". Uncredited assistance in developing the song's chord changes was provided by Harrison, who can be seen helping Starr work the song out on piano, with Lennon later joining in with drums, in the documentaries Let It Be (1970) and The Beatles: Get Back (2021), both using the same footage. Starr's songwriting was further inspired by his desire to escape mounting hostility among the Beatles he would later admit that he had "just wanted to be under the sea, too". Tasted like chicken.") The boat's captain then told Starr about how octopuses travel along the sea bed picking up stones and shiny objects with which to build gardens. He ordered fish and chips for lunch, but instead of fish he got squid (it was the first time he'd eaten squid, and he said, "It was OK. The idea for the song came about when Starr was on a boat belonging to comedian Peter Sellers in Sardinia in 1968.
