Trivia

Wags the Dog is absent in the 2016 version because Dominic Field only got to play Henry the Octopus while his big sister Clare played Dorothy the Dinosaur.
In 2015, the Wiggles filmed two different versions for 2016, one for Wiggle Town! and one for Dance, Dance!.
An instrumental track of this song is played in the DVD menu of Here Comes the Big Red Car and Racing to the Rainbow.
The 1995 version plays in F while the current version since 2015 plays in C.
In the 1995 version, Greg played the flute on the Hammond B3 organ.
The Wiggle Town! version was uploaded on The Wiggles' YouTube channel during St. Patrick's Day on March 17th 2016.
