Trivia

  • Derek Drymon makes a comment about the SpongeBob theme song: "Steve's idea was to try to make the most annoying song you can, to—so when Saturday morning, when kids turn the TV on and parents are trying to sleep, you have this pirate screaming in the other room for the kids to jump on the floor."
  • The song is based on the sea shanty "Blow the Man Down."
  • Captain Maggot of Emilie Autumn's musical group likes to sing this song.
  • In the version used for Square Roots version, Avril Lavigne sings it.
  • A stop-motion opening with CeeLo Green performing the theme was only seen in "Truth or Square."
  • "SquidBob TentaclePants" had an opening, but later on, it was switched back into the normal theme song.
  • In the first movie, it was a real song.
  • When SpongeBob plays the trombone in Truth or Square, it was similar to Pinky Dinky Doo when Mr. Guinea Pig played trumpet every time someone was about to say the "Great Big Fancy Word."
  • In The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, when Burger-Beard the Pirate begins reading the story to some talking seagulls, the seagulls begin to sing the theme song, but Burger Beard orders them to stop before they can finish, threatening them with death. In the end of the movie, having accepted defeat, Kyle, a younger seagull, asks him if they can sing it. They put a hat on Burger-Beard and a picture frame around him, and Burger-Beard reluctantly agrees to lead them in singing the song. The scene then becomes animated with Burger-Beard replaced by Painty the Pirate, and audio from the TV version of the theme song is used.
    • At the beginning of the movie, when camera localizes the Bikini Atoll, the final notes from the theme song is heard.
  • In Atlantis SquarePantis, when Potty calls Patchy by telephone, it can be heard final notes from the theme song as the Patchy ringtone in his mobile.
  • In some other countries, the intro footage is different. (Ex: the French version has a bubble of SpongeBob, a face of him and his name in French too)
  • In the Albanian, European Spanish, French, Italian, Korean, and Macedonian versions, it uses footage in which no text is to be seen.
  • After Season 1, the animation in Season 2 was changed to digital ink and paint. Despite the transition to HD in Season 9, the song remained cel animated and in standard definition until "Lame and Fortune." Starting with that episode, there was a new theme song in high definition.
  • On August 5, 2015, in tweets by Vincent Waller on Twitter, it was confirmed that a 16:9 HDTV/widescreen version of the theme song was in the works.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
    • On June 30, 2016, in a tweet by Vincent Waller, it was confirmed that the 16:9 HDTV/widescreen version of the theme song has been finished and was set to be publicly released in July 2016.[11][12][13][14]
    • On July 9, 2016, the 16:9 version of the theme song premiered during an airing of Eek, an Urchin! and is now used on all widescreen episodes. The 4:3 intro is still used on pre-season 9 episodes.[15]
  • There are at least six production images featured in the protective case of The SpongeBob SquarePants Experience: A Deep Dive into the World of Bikini Bottom.
  • The theme song has been very popular when reversed as many have found the lyrics showing it has inappropriate lyrics in reverse.
  • Painty's first lines were lines that Stephen Hillenburg had to say to kids when he worked as a fake sailor at the Orange County Marine Institute. However, Hillenburg said, "ye," instead of "you."[16]
  • In "Sanitation Insanity", SpongeBob's holes whistle the last notes of the theme song.
  • In "Old Man Patrick", SpongeBob sang the opening part of the theme song.
