Wubbzysongs Composers on NPR!



NPR (National Public Radio) put forth a fun challenge to "Create A Song In A Weekend" for songwriters who wished to compose, record and submit a song within 48 hours. They posted all of the over 150 entries on their website. Bob penned lyrics to a song called "NPR" and Brad composed and recorded it.

NPR played their "NPR" song on the air during the Weekend Edition Saturday show and Scott Simon chatted with Brad about the tune and composing with Bob. You can hear the November 21, 2009 interview here!

Thanks Lou!

Amazing songwriter/performer Lou Barlow has been a fine friend to the Wubbzy songs! As fans of his solo works and his bands over the years (Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh, The Folk Implosion), we were so glad when he contacted us to say "hi."

Check out his kind words in the latest issue of Magnet Magazine about how he and his daughter are enjoying the Wubbzy songs. (Click here!)

And be sure to buy his latest, excellent CD/downloads "Goodnight Unknown." It's on iTunes as well. Here's a video from the new CD (click here).

There's a great film of the making of this new CD here!

Nickelodeon Australia production at the 2009 Sydney Royal Easter Show. The 20 minute show has played twice a day for two weeks since Easter.

We shall see... and hear!

Wecome To The Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! Songs Blog!


Thanks for stopping by! Here's where you can learn all about the original songs in the Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! cartoon on Nick Jr.!!!

Along with the catchy Theme Song at the beginning of the show, there's a specially written song at the end of each episode to compliment the subject of that particular show.

You can watch some of these animated music videos right here now!



Feel free to email us if you have any questions or just want to say "Hi"! Let us know if you want news and updates regarding the Wubbzy songs emailed to you as they come in. We'll also
keep posting on this WubbzySongs blog so keep checking in from time to time.

The Theme Song..."Wow-Wow-Wubbzy...Wubbzy-Wubbzy-Wow-Wow!"



This is as good of a place to start as any! The opening Theme Song!

Bob wrote the lyrics and asked a few composers to put some
music to his words. Here's what we came up with:



This is also the end theme music (at the end of this clip). Bob did an excellent edit by just removing the vocals. The music sounds really nice on it's own as the end credits flash by on screen.  

And even without the singing, it's still really excellent to dance to! See for yourself:


This instrumental version is available for your cell phone's ringtone here!

And now let's enjoy the magical effects of the opening song on one happy fan!



And on TWO happy fans!



AND on THREE happy fans!


How To Create A Wubbzy Song...Step 1: Lyrics

Introducing...Mr. Bob Boyle. Bob created and directs Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! He also created and directs Yin Yang Yo! on the Disney Channel /Jetix!

If you find yourself singing the wonderful words to a Wubbzy song...they're Bob's! He'll send me a batch of possible verses and choruses based upon the subject of the particular episode that the song plays in and I'll edit the lyrics until it gets to a structure that works for me. Also the songs have to be just about 1 minute and 30 seconds so unless we write really fast songs (which we often do!), there can't be too many lyrics.

I'm not sure how Bob comes up with the words and rhymes he does to create a song structure. Whatever he's doing, it sure is fun to make music and sing to!

You can read more about Bob and how he created and continues to create Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! here...
