SpongeBob SquarePants: The Best Day Ever is the fourth album by the voice cast members of SpongeBob SquarePants. Written by Kenny and musician and producer Andy Paley, it features musical cameos by Brian Wilson, Tommy Ramone, Flaco Jiménez, and others.The Best Day Ever album was released on September 12, 2006 to positive reviews from critics.
The album The Best Day Ever was written by SpongeBob's voice actor, Tom Kenny, and producer Andy Paley. Featuring 27 tracks, it was influenced by the 1960s pop music. The record's numerous skits refer to a freeform radio station called WH2O. Kenny's inspiration for the song "My Tighty Whiteys" was "underwear humor". Kenny said "Underwear humor is always a surefire laugh-getter with kids [...] Just seeing a character that odd wearing really prosaic, normal, Kmart, three-to-a-pack underwear is a funny drawing [...] We thought it was funny to make a really lush, beautiful love song to his underwear."
In addition to the cast, the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson, NRBQ's Al Anderson, Joey Spampinato, Tom Ardolino, and Terry Adams, and Tommy Ramone of the Ramones were musical guest artists. Kenny said, on the musical cameos, that "We thought they would spread some magic dust on it. And although this is just a weird little cartoon record, I didn't want to have today's equivalent of Kajagoogoo or Men Without Hats on it." He opined that "the people we got" are "kind of timeless." Other musicians who contributed to the album were Dave Allen, Don Allen, Mandy Barnett, Jerry Blavat, Mike Bolger, Corky Hale, Lisa Hammon, Flaco Jiménez, James King, Tommy Morgan, Jillinda Palmer, Herb Peterson, Nino Tempo, Mike Uhler, and Jeremy Wakefield.
