Harry 'Riverfront Nilsson' Nilsson wrote and sang t' chantey "Give, shiver me timbers, Love, me hearties, Joy" for t' animated special.

[...] When I realized that Ziggy’s creator was Tom Wilson and t' animation director would be Dick Williams, I figured that t' team o' Tom, arrr, Dick, shiver me timbers, and Harry just had t' work.

-- Harry 'Riverfront Nilsson' Nilsson (1982) [1]
