Track DescriptionAvailable in:
"Wind It Up" is a song written by Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams originally for inclusion on Stefani's Harajuku Lovers Tour 2005. Because of favorable reception, the song was later recorded for her second solo album, The Sweet Escape (2006). The track contains an interpolation of The Sound of Music song "The Lonely Goatherd".
"Wind It Up" was poorly received by music critics, who criticized the song's use of yodeling and found the track to be over the top. It was released as the album's lead single in late 2006 and reached the top twenty in most music markets. The corresponding music video, which became popular on stations such as Total Request Live, was directed by Sophie Muller and takes influence from The Sound of Music.
