Razzledazzle is a BBC television programme for children that airs on BBC's CBeebies channel. It is an educational show that features Razzledazzle, a little orange CGI character with floppy ears and big eyes, voiced by Bethen Marlow.

Series overview

The programme is designed to get the viewer to focus upon sound, and, by sliding down magical slides, Razzledazzle visits 4 areas, "Rhyme Time", "Chit Chat", "Bish Bash Bosh!" and "Once Upon a Tale".

"Rhyme Time", presented by Sarah Hope, invites the viewer to recognise an everyday sound, which is then set to a poem and often repeated, allowing for interaction. "Chit Chat" features children involved in activities with their relations, focussing on natural communication skills. "Bish Bash Bosh" involves children acting out simple rhymes which are easily memorable, accentuating rhythm, syllables and rhyme. "Once Upon a Tale", presented alternately by Mina Anwar and Patrick "Wink" Lynch, is designed to create stories using predictive and repeated elements, widening the viewer's vocabulary and allowing for plenty of physicalisation of the narrative.

"Get Up" is a song by American recording artist Ciara. Released on July 25, 2006, the song serves as the first single from the original soundtrack to the film Step Up (2006), as well as the lead single for her second album, Ciara: The Evolution. It features American rapper Chamillionaire. The song was written by the singer and rapper with her mentor Jazze Pha, who produced the song. The song is a hip-hop number, accompanied by R&B and dance music sounds, while integrating a mild crunk beat. The song received generally positive reviews from music critics, who compared it to her previous work, namely "1, 2 Step."

The single received generally positive reviews from music critics with most of them praising the production of the song and the songs genre; the song was noted for containing "minimalist crunk grind which helped her debut sell three million copies". Additionally, the song was noted for being one og the highlights of the album being called "catchy, blipping track." "Get Up" peaked in the top ten in the New Zealand and the United States, becoming her seventh top ten hit. It was later certified gold in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Get Up! is a CD released by heavy metal band Helix in 2006. It was Helix' first official EP, and their 18th official release. It was released independently by Brian Vollmer's Dirty Dog Records. All 7 tracks would be re-released internationally on the 2007 full length album The Power of Rock and Roll.

The track "Heavy Metal Love", originally from No Rest for the Wicked, was re-recorded here due to a dispute with EMI. The song was to be featured on the soundtrack for the Trailer Park Boys movie "The Big Dirty", however the track was pulled by Dean Cameron, president of EMI Canada. The reason given was that distribution of the soundtrack was being handled by Universal, and not EMI who owns the track. The band instead chose to re-record it and include it on Get Up!

Get Up! itself was hyped by Vollmer as "...very reminiscent of the No Rest For The Wicked album," after the alternative rock stylings of their previous studio album, Rockin' in My Outer Space, from 2004.

Get Up! was the first single taken from Beverley Knight's third studio album, Who I Am. The track, which was showcased with a performance at the 2001 MOBO Awards, became Knight's third top 20 hit in Britain when it peaked at #17 upon its release.

The accompanying promo video was directed by Jason Smith.
