* {{Applicability}}: Some have taken the short as a parable about DoingItForTheArt; the frog's singing and dancing appears motivated by a genuine love of performing, and he rejects/sabotages the man's every effort to exploit his talents for financial gain.

** The short may have been partly inspired by the live-action film ''Film/OnceUponATime'' (itself based on a radio play), which revolved around a man trying to make money off a caterpillar in a box who dances to the tune of "Yes Sir, That's my Baby", though it doesn't also sing, and unlike Michigan, the man actually manages to turn it into a national sensation.

* ParodyDisplacement: Most of the songs that appear in the short are only known to audiences today for their appearance in it. Furthermore, if one of the songs shows up in a piece of media today, it's probably going to be as a parody of this cartoon (see ''Film/{{Spaceballs}}'' for one example).

* FridgeBrilliance: “Hello My Baby” seems to be the first song the frog always sings to its new owner. Maybe he’s welcoming them into his life, but the second half of the chorus foreshadows the man’s fate: “If you refuse me, you’ll lose me, then you’ll be left alone...(so) tell me I’m your own.”

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Some have speculated that the frog is ''deliberately'' not singing for the man in order to get him in trouble. Some even speculated that the man was hallucinating the frog dancing, but this has obviously been {{Jossed}}. The ending to "Another Froggy Evening" suggests that the frog will sing [[YouDidntAsk if properly asked]]. And that it isn't croaking, it's saying: "Do you want another song?" in [[StarfishLanguage Martian language]], which Marvin the Martian ends up being the only one to understand.
