A B O U T

About The Soundtrack: This album/CD was released in coordination with the July 2007 theatrical release of the movie Hairspray. It ranks as the top independent release of 2007, has sold over one million copies, debuted at #20 on the Billboard charts and went on to peak at #2, and is RIAA platinum certified...

There are two different versions of the soundtrack availible - the original version and a two-disc special edition released in November of 2007 that includes vocal demos and the excised number "I Can Wait". There's also the ITunes digital download version, which includes "I Can Wait" as a bonus track.

CHANGES: There are several new numbers on the soundtrack that aren't featured in the Broadway musical: "Ladies' Choice", "Come So Far (Got So Far To Go)" and "The New Girl In Town" were all written for the movie - "The New Girl In Town" had at first been created for the musical but had been scrapped at the last minute. Also, Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman wrote a reprise for "Big Blonde and Beautiful" to help enhance the movie-centric Edna/Wilbur/Velma conflict. The rest of the songs have been altered slightly from their stage versions for length or to fit the movie's scheme. Also, two songs from the stage production appear in altered versions: "Mama I'm a Big Girl Now" is sung girl-group style by the three women who brought Tracy to life most memorably - Nikki Blonsky (The 2007 movie Tracy), Marissa Jaret Winokur (The Tony-winning Broadway Tracy) and Ricki Lake (The 1987 movie Tracy). The song features a vocal cameo by Harvey Fierstein, Broadway's first Edna Turnblad. "Cooties", originally sung by Amber and the Council girls as they mock Tracy's downfall before the Miss Hairspray pagent, is reworked as a rock song by Aimee Allen. Both are heard during the credits. All songs were composed and written by Hairspray's Broadway book and music writers Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman
