Trivia[]
- Of its 25 usages, 15 are in season 1 episodes.
- This is the first track to play in season 2.
- In the Dennis Music or CTM Music website, a different track is played in the album called "Green Grass of Hawaii," however in the TRF Music website, before it was updated, the actual track played in the album.
- This track was never used as an APM track, but as a TRF Track. The series used to have the rights to use TRF tracks until 2008. Dennis Music right now is no longer TRF, and joined with CTM Music and Current Music.
- For this reason, this track has been retired since season 5. Since season 4 and season 8, the tracks "Bikini Bottom Bound" and "Wahini Wobble" have tended to be featured in similar narrative contexts.
