Disney is cranking up the volume on nostalgia today with the release of the official soundtrack for Freakier Friday, the highly anticipated sequel to the beloved 2003 body-swap comedy Freaky Friday. Released by Hollywood Records, the new soundtrack is now available and packed with all-new recordings from the film’s cast, a fresh take on fan-favorite songs, and an energetic original score from composer Amie Doherty.
Among the standout tracks is a powerful new version of “Take Me Away,” the iconic Pink Slip anthem from the original film. Produced by Suzy Shinn (Panic! at the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Dua Lipa), the track features vocals by returning star Christina Vidal Mitchell, reprising her role as Maddie, the fierce frontwoman of the fictional band. Also on the album is a bold cover of “Ultimate,” performed by Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band The Beaches, injecting a modern edge into the cult-classic tune.
Fans of Lindsay Lohan won’t be disappointed, she returns not just to the screen, but to the mic. Lohan performs three tracks on the album, including the original duet “Baby” with co-star Julia Butters and an acoustic solo version of the same song. “Baby” was written by Grammy-nominated songwriter and producer Sarah Aarons, whose credits include hits with Zedd and Alessia Cara.
