  • The title refers to the many very talented artists that John Carney (V) knew who put off their career by saying "once" they get this and that sorted out, but never succeed because they've put it off too long. This describes the lead character, The Guy.
  • Movie Goof (boom mic visible): In the recording studio, at the end of the first song, the boom mic is clearly reflected in the glass behind the Girl.
  • Shot in 17 days.
  • Glen Hansard's mother plays a cameo as one of the singers during the party.
