Charts

Trivia

• This was the first album to feature guest appearances from other notable Australian singers.
  • When the album was re-released to digital platforms as part of the Classic Wiggles series, the song "Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport" and its introduction were removed due to controversies surrounding Rolf Harris in recent years.
• This was the first album to feature Paul Field as a backing vocalist.
• This was the first album since the self-titled debut to not feature Anthony Field as a guitarist.
• Trombonist Don Bait (a close friend of Dominic Lindsay's) performed on the album as an uncredited musician.
• The song "In The Wiggles' World", which was the theme song for the group's second television series the previous year, made its studio debut on the album.
• "Here Come The Wiggles", "Taba Naba", "Sing With Me", "Six Months In A Leaky Boat", and "Blow Me Down" previously debuted during the 1999 Wiggly Big Show live tour before the album's release.
  • The former song was also performed at that year's Carols in the Domain concert.
• "Porcupine Pie" was the only song on the album to not appear in the tie-in video special.
• On the North American release, the spoken intro tracks were combined with their corresponding songs, resulting in sixteen total tracks rather than twenty-four.
• The album was nominated for the 2000 ARIA Music Award for Best Children's Album, but lost to Hi-5's Jump & Jive With Hi-5.

Mistakes and Errors

• Jeff Fatt was not credited for playing the keyboards, piano, or accordion.
• Carolyn Ferrie and Paul Paddick were only credited for vocals on the North American release of the album.
  • Paddick's surname was also misspelled as "Padick" on the NA release.
• In the liner notes of the North American release, Don Bartley was credited for mixing the album instead of mastering it.
• On the Spotify version of the Australian release, Greg Page is not credited for writing "In The Wiggles' World", Anthony Field is not credited for writing "Here Come The Wiggles", and Jeff Fatt is not credited for writing "Let's Go (We're Riding In The Big Red Car)".
• In the liner notes of the Australian release, Greg Truman was not credited for writing "Blow Me Down" and Dominic Lindsay was not credited for writing "Here Come The Wiggles". The North American release fixed these errors but added The Wiggles' names to the credits of the former song despite their not writing it.
