==Song Interpretations==
<!--
Some fans have interpreted the lyrics to be sarcastic, such as One Week // One Band who says that the lyrics "tell a tale of sarcastic selflessness".<ref>[https://oneweekoneband.tumblr.com/post/136653197824/tally-hall-member-spotlight-andrew-horowitz One Week One Band Tally Hall Member Spotlight Andrew Horowitz.] 2016. Tumblr. Web article. (Accessed: June 12, 2023).</ref> The song could also be interpreted as a political campaign.
=== Inspiration ===
However, in an interview with Suzanne Chessler, Andrew stated "Some of our songs allow lots of room for interpretation, but my song 'The Whole World And You' is just a fun number with no deeper purpose."<ref>[https://digital.bentley.umich.edu/djnews/djn.2006.01.05.001/89 Newspaper Article] (Accessed June 12, 2023).</ref>

==Music Video==
The music video for "The Whole World and You" was made by Frankenstudio, a production company run by Ken Berman and Frankie Cordero, and it was made using multiple wooden-looking puppets.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB2lBrNDPV8 Frankenstudio- Puppet and Video Production Reel. YouTube]</ref> It focuses on a electoral candidate and their election campaign, which sadly ends in a assassination attempt.<ref name="LAPSBAM">[https://web.archive.org/web/20111113073355/https://www.bam.org/view.aspx?pid=3769 BAM Live Action Puppets Shorts Program B website]</ref>
 
The video was used in Tally Hall's Internet Show, and was later shown at Brooklyn Academy of Music's Live Action Puppets Shorts Program B in 2011.<ref name="LAPSBAM">[https://web.archive.org/web/20111113073355/https://www.bam.org/view.aspx?pid=3769 BAM Live Action Puppets Shorts Program B website]</ref>
 
==Trivia==
* The word "sotries" was originally intended to be "stories" but there was a typo when the lyrics were printed out. Andrew decided to keep the typo and sing it as written.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLRBqXQSf9It=3145 Wall Party '06. Question about Sotries. Tally Hall. Hidden In The Sand.] YouTube. Video. Uploaded: Jan 22, 2019. Accessed: Jun 12, 2023.</ref>
* In 2021 [[Needlejuice Records]] reissued [[Marvin%27s_Marvelous_Mechanical_Museum_(Album)|Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]]; as part of the quality control phase the word was auto-corrected back to "Stories" on the CD and vinyl lyric sheets. The error was fixed in the 2022 reprint.
* There is a short rendition of the song done in an alternative punk style present on the Admittedly Incomplete Demos album, as well as appearing twice in live performances.

=== Trivia ===
The word "sotries" was originally intended to be "stories" but there was a typo when the lyrics were printed out.  The band decided to keep it, and sing it, as SOTRIES, which lasted until the 2021 [[Needlejuice Records]] reissue of [[Marvin%27s_Marvelous_Mechanical_Museum_(Album)|Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum]] when, in the CD and vinyl lyric sheets, the word was auto-corrected back to STORIES and no one noticed in time.
