'And the World is One on a Christmas Morning' is from The Wiggles’ album Yule Be Wiggling. As if taking snippets from many carols for inspiration, this track covers everything you want in a carol. The Wiggles have managed to mix cicadas singing, kookaburras laughing and Mary and Joseph’s journey to Bethlehem, all tied up with a happy message of peace on earth in a tight 2 minutes and 12 seconds. 

Love them or hate them, The Wiggles formed in 1991 and have now become a brand entertaining worldwide audiences. With a cycle of touring live shows, television performances, albums and community announcements, The Wiggles are a multimillion dollar business and have earned their position in Australia’s popular culture.

Performed by the original four Wiggles (Greg Page, Jeff Fatt, Murray Cook and Anthony Field), for this recording the band have added violin, cello and percussion parts. Backing vocals are sung by Mark Punch who, as well as being an in-demand session musician, co-wrote ‘Heading in the Right Direction’ for Renee Geyer with Garry Paige in 1977.
