The first appearance of Zippity the Hamster.
The first video to mention Barney’s name in twice, the name of

FANDOM
the video series and episode title.
The first time "I Love You" is sung at the end.
The first time the Barney doll does not wink at the end.
ADVERTISEMENT

The first time in which the Barney costume is entirely purple

as the previous releases of the Backyard Gang series used
HOME different colored hues to represent the costume. The current
hue for the Barney costume has remained that way ever since
for all media in general, including live show performances.
GAMES The second time where Barney is physically shown in doll form
while speaking onscreen before coming to life as "Going
Places!" also featured this albeit being heard offscreen.
ANIME The final Barney video to feature the Kids Edutainment Video
logo.
The final time Barney is performed by David Voss as he left the
MOVIES series to go into the army and was replaced by David Joyner
starting with the next video. Eventually, David Voss returned
to the franchise in Barney Live! In New York City portraying the
TV
role of The Winkster alongside Ashley Wood.
The final appearance of the 1990 Barney costume, although it
would continue to make public appearances up to December
VIDEO
1991.
The final Backyard Gang video to have a trailer released on
home media as the final two videos were made and released a
WIKIS
year later in 1991.
The only Backyard Gang video to have been made in 1990
despite Waiting for Santa and Campfire Sing-Along both
START A
WIKI having 1990 copyright dates at the end of the credits since
they were already made a year prior before being released.
In the video, Tina mentions that everyday in school they sing the
Grand Ol' Flag, but in reality schools sing The National Anthem.
The Barney doll that Tina owns is the same doll that was given out
from the Barney Fan Club.
For some reason, the spine on the original cover says "Barney
Videos" rather than having the Backyard Gang logo.
This video serves as a pilot for Barney & Friends, due to the setting
of this video taking place at a school.
A Spanish dub of this video was made presumably around the same
time as an alternate to the original. Due to it being produced around
the same time as the English version, the dub was made by a
different team compared to Barney y Sus Amigos, and the songs
(except for "The Alphabet Chant") remain in English.
Five winners were selected from The Barney National Talent Search
and they performed "What I Want to Be" in this video as their names
were revealed in the end credits.
After the music had ended in the end credits, a small snippet of the
"Shimbaree, Shimbarah" sound effect can be heard briefly.
The setting of this video takes place in October on a Saturday.
Production for this video took place in June 1990.
On April 4th, 2021, Youtuber TF1945™Archive, upload the full video
from Disney Channel's Lunch Box/Music Box (https://www.youtube.
com/watch?v=X3FbdODUv0E&ab_channel=TF1945%E2%84%A2Ar
chive).

Release date
This video was released one day after Bo Barron's fifteenth birthday,
and one day before Todd Haberkorn's eighth birthday.
