Tom Kenny came full-circle with his musical past in 2006 when he co-wrote and recorded SpongeBob SquarePants: The Best Day Ever. While Kenny's singing on the CD is done in the voice of SpongeBob and other characters from the show, he was very serious about the quality of the actual music on the disc and was able to get enlist help from such musical royalty as Brian Wilson, Tommy Ramone, and Flaco Jimenez. The music pays homage to the Beach Boys, the Archies, the Lovin' Spoonful, and the Troggs, among others.
