I dont know if this violates copyright... but I'm going to add the lyrics of the song that Wendy sings at the audition. If it violates copyright, remove it. By the way, in Greece, we have a similar song too, na' moun nyhta sto gialo (if I could be at the shore during the night), and we sing it during the carnival, along with other similar explicit songs, mounata (cunt songs) --Orthologist 17:34, 11 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

I added a bit in the trivia section about the song You Got It

Uncited material edit

Cite please;

  • "Fingerbang" was going to be the name of Trey Parker and Matt Stone's band. They have admitted that, for about a day, they genuinely thought this a good idea. Somewhere in time, however, they settled on the pornography-derived name, DVDA.
  • In this episode's commentary, the creators remarked that this was the first episode in which they truly began using the method of "straight-storytelling". Before this, almost all episodes had A-stories, B-stories, C-stories, etc., which would all come together in the end. In this episode, the creators claim, they learned that an episode may be merely about one thing, with character's side stories all reacting to the main idea.
  • Randy's fit of rage, which ends with him smashing the glass doors of the living-room cabinet and shouting "No! Nooo!", is a reference to the scene in Star Trek: First Contact in which Captain Picard says the same thing and also smashes a cabinet; in fact, Randy's voice changes from Parker's to a sampling of Patrick Stewart's voice from the film.
  • During the audition scene, the piano accompanist bears a resemblance to the character Schroeder from the comic strip and cartoon Peanuts.
  • During the initial conversation between Cartman and the mall manager, pop singer Tiffany is mentioned, as she had gone around the country performing and promoting herself at malls.
  • The group of which Randy Marsh was a member, "Ghetto Avenue Boys", is a parody of the Backstreet Boys, New Kids On The Block and other such thoroughfare-related boy bands. The song that the Ghetto Avenue Boys are shown singing is a parody of "You Got It (The Right Stuff)".
  • This episode makes reference to "Merry Christmas, Charlie Manson!" when Randy says, "Come on; I'll buy you kids an orange smoothie." The orange-smoothie joke predates even that, however, going back to "The Spirit of Christmas."
  • In the scene in which Randy apologises to Stan for being jealous of him, a visitor can be seen in the picture behind them, hiding in the design.
  • Wendy's audition song is a parody or a variant of Miss Susie, in that each verse ends with profanity that begins the next verse as an innocuous word, except for the last verse, which is bleeped out.
  • Kenny's (and later Randy's) costume is a reference to the costume of Angus Young from AC/DC
