Freaky Friday (soundtrack)

Freaky Friday is the soundtrack album to the 2003 Disney film of the same name which features songs by various artists. The album was called a "mixed bag" by AllMusic,[2] which specifically cited American Hi-Fi's "The Art of Losing," The Donnas' "Backstage", Andrew W.K.'s "She Is Beautiful," and Joey Ramone's "What a Wonderful World" as good, and strongly criticized the rest of the album.

"Ultimate" is a song from the Freaky Friday soundtrack, with a video made of scenes from the film used to help promote it on Disney Channels Worldwide. It enjoyed some success due to airplay on Disney Channel and Radio Disney.[4]

Background

It was written and produced by Robert Ellis Orrall and Jeff Coplan. The song was played during the end credits of the film. The song was so successful on Radio Disney and Disney Channel, that it was included on the soundtrack of the series That's So Raven.

Music video

There are two different promotional music videos for the song. In the first (which appears on film), Lohan sings the song as her character Anna Coleman and her bandmates (played by Christina Vidal and Haley Hudson) at her mother's wedding. In the second version that appeared on Disney Channel, the video begins the same as the first one, at a wedding. Then it transitions to Lohan recording the song in a studio and features clips from the film.
