Trivia

"Dorothy (Would You Like To Dance?)", "Can You (Point Your Fingers And Do The Twist?)", and "Rock-A-Bye Your Bear" were all re-recorded for this soundtrack as well as for the film.
Can You (Point Your Fingers And Do The Twist?) from this soundtrack was later reissued on the Here Comes The Big Red Car album and video in 2006, and Dorothy (Would You Like to Dance?) was later reissued on It's Time to Wake Up Jeff! album and video in Australia and Splish Splash Big Red Boat album in North America both also in 2006.
Likewise, Dorothy (Would You Like to Dance?) and Can You (Point Your Fingers And Do The Twist?) were the only 2 songs from this soundtrack that were later reissued in 2006.
This is the first album to feature Paul Paddick's operatic voice.
Roger Lemke doesn't sing Ballerina, Ballerina, Paul Paddick does his opera singing voice of Alfonso Tiramisu, who also played Captain Feathersword the Friendly Pirate, Jeff Fatt provides the voices of Wags the Dog, as well as Henry the Octopus.
The instrumental track for "Hot Potato" was later reused for the 1998 version of the song.
"I'm a Cow" is the only previously released song that appears in its original version. "Romp Bomp A Stomp" was not re-recorded, but removed Dorothy's spoken lines and slightly mixed differently.
"Can You (Point Your Fingers And Do The Twist?)" was originally in D major when it was recorded for the Big Red Car album and video. This re-recorded version is in E major.
Wigglemix was used as a video on The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video and the American and UK versions of Yummy Yummy (1998), featuring the infamous Wiggle Puppets.
The songs Quack Quack and Nya Nya Nya were first performed in Wiggledance!, which was filmed during the Wake Up Jeff! Tour.
The Chase, which was featured twice in the movie, was not included on the album. It was later released on the US version of Yummy Yummy.
Peter Iacono is credited as "Peter (Fuji) Iacono".
David Anthony plays the piano on Wally's Dream Music.
Nya Nya Nya is adapted from an Irish children's song I'll Tell Me Ma.
A re-issue of this album was still released by ABC Music, but with no Wiggles Interactive.
On the US version, the word "Instrumental" is added for the songs such as Mrs Bingles Theme.
On Boo Boo & Mace's single, Wigglemix is titled as "Point Your Finger Boo Boo & Mace Remix".
