Trivia

*None of the band members used their surnames when credited on this album. This was because Benji & Joel had not yet changed their surname from their father's (Combs) to their mother's (Madden), and they did not want to be credited as Benji & Joel Combs. The other band members did the same, in a show of unity.
*The version of "The Click" on the re-released album is the second recording of the song. "The Click" was originally recorded for the "Little Things" single as a B-side. The earlier version is much grittier and sounds like a club recording, or just poorly mixed. The second version, recorded as the theme song for the MTV animated series "Undergrads", is much better mixed.
*This is the only Good Charlotte album to feature all 5 founding members.
*It is the only Good Charlotte album not to have an intro track on the album.
