**Trivia**

	+ Likewise, it is the oldest video to be released in North America at all.
	+ ABC DVD was going to release a DVD version of their own in Australia. A date was set for 8 July 2004, but it was delayed and eventually cancelled.
	+ The "Dance Party" version also appeared on a rental DVD titled Wiggle Mania, which was a Kidmongous exclusive to Blockbuster along with Wiggle Bay. This was also released in 2003, and was offered in a VHS version as well.

* This is the last video that Anthony wears his green polo shirt and long-sleeved turquoise shirt. From 1996 onwards he wore a blue shirt.
* This is also the last time any one of The Field Brothers plays Captain Feathersword, from late 1995 onward, Captain Feathersword would be played by Paul Paddick (who is in fact not a member of the Field family).
* This is also the last time not have Paul Paddick involved in The Wiggles media as he joined in late-1995.
* This and Wake Up Jeff! are the only videos where Jeff drives the Big Red Car.
* This is the only time Paul Field played Captain Feathersword, as well as the only other time John Field played the character.
* Different parts of the video were filmed at two different times. The two most notable distinctions are Anthony's shirt and haircut (a green short-sleeved tee and shorter hair during one shoot, and a turquoise long-sleeved skivvy with longer curly hair in the other).
* The Big Red Car is made of plywood (although a cardboard version was also used) in this video and the next. Later, in The Wiggles Movie and TV Series 1 it became an actual drivable car.
