Trivia

• Hosted by Professor Owl.
• The video was originally issued to promote the November 21, 1986 theatrical re-release of Song of the South, celebrating the film's 40th Anniversary, and representing the launch of the new home-video series of (as yet, unnumbered) Sing Along Songs.
• "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" comes second after the "Mickey Mouse Club March" in spite of headlining the title.
• This video features a short version of the "Mickey Mouse Club March"; the full version is on "The Magic Years".
• Footage for the song "It's a Small World" was taken from Disneyland Goes to the World's Fair, which aired May 17, 1964. On the song itself, the pitch appears to be shifted one semitone higher on the recording after the snake charmer-style music.
• "Casey Junior", while containing the original footage from Dumbo, also contained footage from The Brave Engineer and Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip.
• "Give a Little Whistle", in addition to the original footage from Pinocchio, also contains footage from Mickey's Delayed Date, Lend a Paw, How to Play Football, Dumbo, The Nifty Nineties, Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier, The Vanishing Private, Melody Time, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Make Mine Music, and The New Spirit.
• After "The Unbirthday Song" is finished, the footage of the Dormouse floating down from the fireworks on an umbrella is shown, but his dialogue is redubbed to introduce the next song: "Music and magic go hand in hand. They compliment each other. A song can make your dreams come true. That is, if you have a Fairy Godmother," which then leads to "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo."
• Ending footage for Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah Reprise was taken from "This is Your Life, Donald Duck" where the Disney gang comes to pay tribute to Mickey, Donald, and Goofy.
• It was also known as Cancion del Sur: Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah in Spanish when it was released in Spain.
• Known as Cendrillon: Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo in French, released in France and the United States.
• Both the 1994 and 2001 VHS re-release copies are considered the rarest since only a few copies were manufactured into stores.
• The 1986 original print and the 2001 print featured the Sorcerer Mickey logo with "presents" appearing below it.
• For some reason, the 2001 print starts with the same promo featured at the end of the 1990 print, then goes on to the Sorcerer Mickey logo and then the 1994 print's intro.
