The Wiggles Movie Soundtrack

The Wiggles Movie Soundtrack is the 8th Wiggles album. It was released in 1997 and is the soundtrack to The Wiggles Movie, released the same year. The soundtrack was recorded in 1996 and 1997. This album includes every song used in the film (except for The Chase for unknown reasons), plus a multimedia track called Wiggles Interactive accessible from a 32-bit computer.

This album was released in the US under the title "Magical Adventure: A Wiggly Movie", with the same tracks as the Australian and New Zealand album, with the exception of Wiggles Interactive.

Trivia

 * "Dorothy (Would You Like To Dance?)", "Can You (Point Your Fingers and Do the Twist?)", "Rock-a-Bye Your Bear" were all re-recorded for this soundtrack as well as the film. The original recordings of those songs have now become rarities.
 * The instrumental track for "Hot Potato" was later reused for the 1998 version of the song, but is different from the one used on the 1994 version.
 * "I'm a Cow" is the only previously released song that appears in its original version. "Romp Bomp a Stomp" was non re-recorded, but was remixed to remove Dorothy's spoken lines.
 * "Can You Point Your Fingers and Do the Twist?" was originally in D major when it was recorded for the Big Red Car album and video. This re-recorded version is in E major.
 * Teddy Bear Hug was reused as a remix video on The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video and the American and UK re-recordings of Yummy Yummy, but it was credited as Point Your Finger on the song title, due to being the main song used in the track. Also, the remix was sung by the Wiggle Puppets in the video.
 * Two songs Quack Quack and Nya Nya Nya were first performed in Wiggledance! Live in Concert.
 * This album has the original speed for the songs.
 * The Chase song was supposed to be on this soundtrack, but it was cut out at the last minute, due to time constraints.
