Keith Urban Swings by to Sing With the Wiggles
My kids outgrew the Wiggles about one Hot Potato, one Fruit Salad and some Crunchy Munchy Honey Cakes ago. But the crazy-popular children's band from Sydney, Australia, knows how to grab attention. They've sold 24 million DVDs, 8 million books and 8 million CDs, and even beat out fellow Aussie Keith Urban as the highest-earning entertainers in Australia from 2006 to 2008. But now they've banded together with the country star to record a song. It's reportedly a cover of the catchy, whistling 1965 Roger Miller tune, "England Swings (Like a Pendulum Do)." Will that be on an upcoming Urban album? Or will it end up on a Wiggles DVD? Not sure. But Urban has his own little Wiggles fan at home, so the collaboration kind of makes sense. "Having a 2-year-old, I'm not going to turn down the Wiggles," he said.

I’ve heard the recording, and loved it. Keith gets to do a little solo part on one of the verses. It is a great collaboration…Grammy worthy, in my opinion.
Susan says:
Very cute! Keith’s not new to lending his voice for the kids (Raffi’s Apples and Bananas) but it’s more timely now with his daughter in the picture. Love to see him do a Sesame Street segment.
Val says:
Makes sense because he is now Dad. Cute
