Trivia[]
- This is the first Disney's Sing-Along Songs live-action video not to be produced by Gregory Sills and the second Disney's Sing-Along Songs live-action video to be located at Disneyland.
- This is also the only Disney's Sing-Along Songs live-action video where no one says goodbye at the end. Instead, the characters use hand throw streamers and celebrate Christmas with the people. In addition, the final shot is edited so that the Cinderella Castle is seen underneath the fireworks.
- Daisy Duck's voice can be heard in the Japanese version.
- This tape marks the final appearance of the Disney's Sing-Along Songs logo from 1986.
- This tape marks the third time that the book turns the page to a song name instead of someone telling you the next song; the others are Disney's Sing-Along Songs: Very Merry Christmas Songs, Disney's Sing-Along Songs: Disneyland Fun and Let's Go to Disneyland Paris.
- At the end of the credits Brian Cummings tells the viewers to "Stay tuned for more Disney Sing-Along fun."
- Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie, Scrooge McDuck, Goofy, Chip and Dale, Grandma Duck, the Three Little Pigs, Snow White, Doc, Happy, Bashful, Sneezy, Grumpy, Sleepy, Dopey, Pinocchio, Jiminy Cricket, Geppetto, Honest John, Stromboli, Zummi Gummi, Dumbo, Br'er Rabbit, Cinderella, Prince Charming, Alice, Mary Poppins, Fifer Pig, Baloo, Colonel Hathi, Robin Hood, Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Roger Rabbit, Belle, and the Beast are featured characters in this.
- During the "Dear Santa" song, a clip from the Who Framed Roger Rabbit MS-DOS video game Hare Raising Havoc, and the front covers of three Disney Comics-published comic issues (Walt Disney's Comics and Stories #570, DuckTales #13, and Roger Rabbit #5) can be seen on Huey, Dewey and Louie's computer.
- The actual still with the logo is from the reprise of "When You Wish Upon a Star" at the end of Pinocchio.
- This marks the only episode to use Mickey's 1960's tuxedo on the 1987 costume.
- This marks the final appearance of Pluto's 1978 Disneyland costume with larger pupils.
- This is the only Disney's Sing-Along Songs video to not feature the usual theme music in the title card; instead, a different theme in the same key as the 1986 Walt Disney Home Video jingle plays as the logo fades out.
- The first time that the Disney's Sing-Along Songs theme is not played at the end of the episode.
- This is notably the first to feature a early shortened prototype version of the theme, which wouldn't officially happen until early 1996 in Mickey's Fun Songs re-releases.
- This is also the only episode to show the video's title after the logo appears.
- "Hip Hop Noel" uses footage from "The Night Before Christmas" and "Pluto's Christmas Tree".
- The parade footage for "Here Comes Santa" is from the 1990 parade at the Magic Kingdom and the 1991 parade from the then Disney's MGM Studios.
- There is also a German release of this video but it is rare. A Japanese version was also made.
- The page for "The Twelve Days of Christmas" shows Huey, Dewey, and Louie holding presents again instead of Mickey and Minnie caroling.
- This volume is tied with Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah as one of the least internationalized volumes in the series, not counting US-exclusive volumes.
- At one point of "Here Comes Santa", a Cabbage Patch Kid doll can be seen in Santa's sleigh.
- In "Hip Hop Noel", the ballerina's pink tutu appears to be modified from or inspired by Annette Funicello's costume from the Swan Lake recital where Walt Disney discovered her.
