Trivia / Prozzak

• Cross-Dressing Voices: Jason Levine sings the female parts on "Strange Disease" and "Wild Thing/Poor Boy" in a falsetto.
• Defictionalization:
  • For a time, searching for www.nevergetoveryou.com would redirect one to a page on the band's official website. Both are now defunct.
  • The concert setup for the "www.nevergetoveryou" video eventually became the band's real-life tour setup, with Jay and James performing in-character as Simon & Milo atop giant busts of the characters.
• Early-Bird Cameo: Stacy The Computer, who would become a recurring character on the Saturday People album, first appears in the video for "Wild Thing/Poor Boy."
• Fake Nationality: A pop duo consisting of a Brit and a vaguely Eastern-Europian guy, as portrayed by two Canadians.
• He Also Did: Jay and James produced and co-wrote Fefe Dobson's debut Self-Titled Album, as well as "Get Down" for the Boy Band b4-4.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes
  • The music video compilation "Simon & Milo present Prozzäk's Hot Show" has never been released on DVD. Bits of it are often found floating around YouTube.
  • "DJ-J-Vox" and it's remix were only ever released on the band's MySpace page.
• No Budget: It's clear from the designs of the album, the Limited Animation in the "Love Me Tinder" video and the minimal production that Forever 1999 was more a passion project by the band than an investment by a major label.
• No Export for You: Saturday People was never physically released outside of Canada due to poor sales.
• Official Fan-Submitted Content:
  • The verses for "Infatuation" were written by a contest winner.
  • The single cover for "Baby I Need Your Love (Pussy Cat)" and the animations counting down the days to its release on Facebook were created by a different contest winner.
• Technology Marches On
  • The lyrics of "Sleep With Myself" describe intimacy being lost in the digital age with "fax machines" being mentioned in the same breath as computers.
  • While the lyrics of "www.nevergetoveryou" remain topical in an age of social networking and online dating, the title grows more and more dated as the internet becomes less of a spectacle and websites are succeeded by apps.
• What Could Have Been: A Simon & Milo cartoon was planned for Disney Channel in the early 2000s, with Ready Ready Set Go and the band's title song for the channel's Made-for-TV Movie Get a Clue testing the waters with their audience. However, Jason Levine wound up clashing with executives over what they considered "age appropriate" for Disney's core audience and the project fell through, though storyboards for a pilot episode where made.
• Word of God: Jason Levine claims that Simon lacks a neck so that there can be one more thing burdening him.
• Write What You Know:
  • Jason Levine. "Everything that happened to Simon happened to me."
  • "The Legend Of Simon & Milo" was based on Jay and James's coming together out of the ashes of their previous in-band rivalry to create something new that would strengthen their friendship.
