5!!Tropes:
6* AnAesop: Things change in time and people grow. However, just because things are different doesn’t mean they’re bad.
7* TheCameo: The farm animals ([[SweetSheep notably a single lamb]]) seen during the finale are from the "Jolly Holiday" sequence in ''Film/MaryPoppins''.
8* GrayRainOfDepression: The sky darkens and rain falls when Mickey and Piggy's comeback concert falls apart to match Mickey's downcast mood. But when they discover that Piggy can still sing well - in baritone, no less - [[RaysFromHeaven the sun's rays come out]], signifying their newfound joy.
9* GrowingUpSucks: At first, as the conflict starts because Piggy grows up and loses his high singing voice. But eventually he and Mickey realize he can still sing just fine - he's just now a baritone.
10* IGotBigger: Piggy starts out as a cute little piglet that fits in Mickey's palm. He grows up to the size of a cow, and in doing so loses his adorable squeal.
11* MusicalEpisode: The episode is almost all singing, set to the titular song.
12* MythologyGag: Donald's medical license is from Marceline, Creator/WaltDisney's hometown.
13* {{Scatting}}: Piggy lays down a bassline scat with ease.
14* SpitefulSpit: A duckling spits on Mickey's shoe after his and Piggy's act bombs.
15* StealthPun: Donald Duck as a doctor, who can't find anything wrong with Piggy and advises Mickey to lip-sync. He's quite literally a ''quack'' doctor.
16* ThatSyncingFeeling: Mickey tries to have Piggy lip-sync to a record of his old high-pitched voice to cover up his lower voice, but they're exposed when [[RepetitiveAudioGlitch the record starts skipping]]. Their [[OhCrap reaction]] explains it all.
17* VocalRangeExceeded: Piggy's high-pitched squeal turns into a low grunt as he gets older, which means he can no longer sing like he used to. In the end, he and Mickey realize that he can still sing - in baritone.
