## Trivia

* According to the trailer, this video was supposed to have a VHS release in North America, but it was cancelled, however, it did make it on DVD.
* This is the only Classic Wiggles video besides Wiggledancing! Live in the USA! to not have any footage uploaded onto The Wiggles YouTube channel.
* "Blow Me Down" was likely originally to be after the skit where Captain goes water-skiing around Sydney Harbour, as it did in the TV episode with that same skit, but it was cut for unknown reasons (most likely time).
* Most of the songs and skits from this video can be seen in The Wiggles Show! (TV Series) ,with two exceptions: D.O.R.O.T.H.Y (My Favourite Dinosaur) and the short version of Say Aah at the Doctors were both ommited from TV Series 5, making both of them video exclusives.
* The set and Wags costume were also used for The Latin American Wiggles, because they were filmed sometime close to filming of The Latin American Wiggles, as Captain Feathersword was played by Paul Paddick before switching to John Martin for The Latin American Wiggles.
	+ The set was used for the Sailing Around the World tour as well.
* The skit where Greg wants to sing everything is taken from The Wiggles Show! Series 4 episode Wiggly Friends.
* "Little Brown Ant" makes its video debut after first appearing in Here Comes a Song 14 years earlier.
* This is the first Wiggles Video to feature a music video for "Do The Owl" that was not a live performance and to cut Steve and Terri Irwin's speaking parts.
* Anthony's hat nearly flies off during Dressing Up.
* Although the cover says "14 Wiggly Giggly Tunes", there are actually 19 songs total (not counting songs performed during the Wigglehouse and Sailing Around the World segments).
* This video marks the last time the Red Starry Keyboard has sparkle stars and the first time they're yellow.
* This was the only time Greg sang Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star until Celebration!.
* In Let's Go (We're Riding In The Big Red Car), extended footage that wasn't used for the song Big Red Car in Here Comes The Big Red Car is seen.
* Stock footage of The S.S Feathersword used during the first Wigglehouse segment of Anthony reading a poem about The Wiggles and their friends is reused for It's Time to Wake Up Jeff!.
* This video is yet to be uploaded on YouTube as part of Classic Wiggles. It is currently the only OG Wiggles video to not have any footage uploaded to the official YouTube channel, besides Wiggledancing! Live in the USA.
* During the flower transition to Subo Diez Escalones, the rest of the sound effect for the Big Red Car is heard which could make that originally the prologue to the song wasn't intended to be featured but was added in the last minute.
* This is the first Wiggles DVD in North America to be distributed by 20th Century Fox(now called 20th Century Studios).
* In North America, this is HiT Entertainment's last Wiggles video to have it's own trailer.
