Best comment ahaha

[@Mclarenboy100]

Not to diminish all the insane talent in here (seriously, Lachie's singing is incredible and Murray rocking the solo is wild), but I'm disappointed at the lack of comments for Simon (the new Red Wiggle) and how his baritone just ADDS to the entire vocal of Elephant. Like it adds *so much* to the original, not just in making it funky as hell, but somehow...darker too??? Whatever it is, I just live for his baritone.

[@laneatkinson6441]

Yes!! His voice is awesome and it really spices up the song.

[@Kodiak1234]

Weird to say, but the Wiggles are outstanding musicians, with literal decades of experience playing massive arenas, it shines through here

Anthony and Jeff were in a pop band together before The Wiggles, called The Cockroaches. Murray was in a pub rock band before and during his time with The Wiggles.

He rarely wears shoes when performing, something to do with his mental health and how he feels without them. If he absolutely has to he wears those shoe sock things.
