The Wiggles carried "Elephant" into Triple J's Like a Version segment on March 5, 2021, a children's music group squaring up to a Tame Impala stomper, and the cover went on to win the youth broadcaster's Hottest 100 of 2021.
The song itself has a long back story. Tame Impala put it out in July 2012 to announce their second album, Lonerism, though it was one of the oldest songs Kevin Parker had, left in the vaults until a sound check run-through had the whole band urging him to put it on the record. Its bluesy riffing made it the odd one out on Lonerism, a holdover from the days of Tame Impala's self-titled EP, when it was written.
