Release[edit]

Behind the Bridge to Elephunk was released outside North America on May 26, 2004, by Polydor Records.[1] The DVD included a “Jukebox” feature, which allows the music videos to be played in a random order non-stop.[2] It included the previously unreleased music video for “The Boogie That Be”, which was filmed before the song was recorded and before Fergie joined the group. Most of the DVD’s content was made available for streaming to members of the group’s fan club Peabody.[3]
