The song also makes extensive use of doo-wop acapella, organs and complex harmonies - hallmarks of ''Blue Album'' era writing. In an early [[Weezine]], it was revealed that [[Patrick Wilson]] has a vocal part during the bridge. Wilson is known to have one other very small vocal part on the Blue Album, but this is otherwise the only vocal part Wilson would have on a Weezer record before ''[[The Red Album]]'' in [[2008]]. | The song also makes extensive use of doo-wop acapella, organs and complex harmonies - hallmarks of ''Blue Album'' era writing.

A demo of "Holiday", ca. [1993]], recorded solely by Cuomo exists in circulation. The demo is very similar to the album version, although one notable difference is that the breakdown features no lyrics or alternate vocal parts. | A demo of "Holiday", ca.

Holiday is rarely played live since the band's 2000 relaunch, but a live recording can be found on the EP ''[[The Lion and the Witch]]''. Because the song was played shortly after [[Scott Shriner]] joined the band (making him unfamiliar with several lyrics), and because set lists at the time were determined at random, Shriner flubbed the bridge lyrics. Most of the band to cracked up in laughter. After the completion of the song, Cuomo jokingly remarked "Scott just won a Grammy!" | Holiday is rarely played live since the band's 2000 relaunch, but a live recording can be found on the EP ''[[The Lion and the Witch]]''.
