- Creator Backlash: "Skweeze Me Pleeze Me" was recorded as a joke. Despite being a number one hit single, it was pretty swiftly disowned and dropped from the live set, never to return. The band's dislike of the song is widely echoed in the fandom as well, where it's generally considered a weak, Strictly Formula offering.
- Jim Lea has this opinion of the band’s breakthrough song, “Coz I Luv You”. Upon finding it was both Number 1 on both the British and Irish Charts, he exclaimed, “What a pile of shit!”.
- He Also Did: Current lead singer Malcom Mcnulty got his start as the front man for German heavy metal band Hazzard.
- Throw It In!: Noddy's opening "Baby, baby, baaay-BEEE!" on "Cum On Feel The Noize" was just a microphone test.
- Two-Hit Wonder: Despite their massive success in the UK, their only top 40 singles in the US were "My Oh My", which peaked at number 37 and "Run Runaway", which peaked at number 20.
