Trivia

• All the performers sing in their own voices, with two exceptions: Goldie Hawn, who was told by Allen to intentionally sing worse because she sang too well to be believable as a normal person just breaking into song, and Drew Barrymore, who convinced Woody Allen that her singing was too awful even for the "realistic singing voice" concept he was going for. Her voice was dubbed by Allen-regular Olivia Hayman.

• The title song was written by Bert Kalmar and Harry Ruby, and was used as a recurring theme song in the Marx Brothers movie Horse Feathers (1932). Groucho Marx was highly regarded by Allen.

• That song was reworked as "How Do You Do?" for Betty Boop in the 1934 cartoon, "Betty in Blunderland". Mae Questel, the voice of Betty as well as Olive Oyl, played Woody Allen's mother in the 1989 film, New York Stories.
