From the creators of 2002's wildly successful Jonah--A VeggieTales Movie comes a new story of heroism in the beloved VeggieTales' world, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. Now, we follow the comic misadventures of three animated veggie pals who reluctantly set sail for adventure and discover that real heroes don't have to be tall, strong, handsome...or even human. The latest in a franchise that has sold over 50 million DVDs/videos since its 1993 inception, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything-A VeggieTales Movie continues the hit series' values-based lessons in teaching kids what it really means to be a hero. Universal Pictures presents The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything-A VeggieTales Movie, opening in theatres nationwide on January 11. The Decca soundtrack will be released on December 4 and features performances by well-known, Christian pop artists tobyMac, singing the new end title track, "What We Gonna Do?", newsboys, Relient K and a new original song, "The Right Thing" by American Idol finalist, Mandisa.

Good fun music!

Summary: Funny songs for the kids
Comment: Even though there is a lot of instrumental music on this disc, there are enough silly songs as well to keep my son laughing every time we listen to it in the car - it's one of his favorites and as much as I hate to admit it, I find myself humming these tunes throughout the day!

Summary: "Grab You Root Beer" and Enjoy This Soundtrack
Comment: One of the highlights of each VeggieTales episode is the songs. So, while I don't normally buy movie soundtracks, I made an exception for this disc. And it's a great combination of fun songs and instrumental pieces.

The first half of the disc is made up of songs with lyrics. They're about half and half Veggie and Christian artists. We've got "Spanish Gold," the song from the dinner theater show and "Jolly Joe's" from the pirate hangout they visit. If you sat through the credits, you found the video for "Rock Monster," a spoof on "Rock Lobster" that tells part of the story. You'll be glad to know it is here as well.

My favorite track on here is "Yo Ho Hero," the song sung by Steve Taylor and the Newsboys. The song was actually used during the movie, and I find it fun. It makes fun of how lazy our heroes are. I'm not normally a fan of tobyMac, but I do like his contribution, "What we Gonna Do?" It's still got the hip hop feel he's known for, but it isn't so over the top it annoys me. Finally, there's Mandisa's song "The Right Thing." Best I can tell, it was never in the film, which is a shame because it is a great summary of the message of the film.

Now if you thought this soundtrack wouldn't have "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything," you were dead wrong. We get two versions of it here, the classic Silly Song version that started it all, and the Reliant K punked up version done for Jonah.

Speaking of Jonah, the include "Second Chances" from that soundtrack as a bonus song.

The second half of the disc is made up of instrumental pieces. They usually include a line or two of dialog surrounded by several minutes of full orchestra. This stuff is beautiful.

And this is an enhanced CD, which means there are three videos you can find on your computer. There's the silly song version of "Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" and "Do the Moo Shoo." Finally, they give us the video they made for "Rock Monster" which is half the fun of the song.

All told, this is a fun soundtrack that will make fans of the Veggies very happy.
