The Sapphires

The Sapphires: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is a soundtrack album for the film The Sapphires, released on 27 July 2012 by Sony Music Australia. It features the vocals of Jessica Mauboy, Jade MacRae, Lou Bennett, Juanita Tippens and Darren Percival, with Mauboy singing in ten of the sixteen songs. Produced by Bry Jones, the soundtrack contains songs from the 1960s, including "Land of a Thousand Dances", "I Can't Help Myself", "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" and "What a Man". The track "Ngarra Burra Ferra" is a song based on the traditional Aboriginal hymn "Bura Fera" in the Yorta Yorta language of Victoria, Australia, the language spoken by the indigenous Yorta Yorta people of the Goulburn Valley and Murray River valley centred on modern-day Echuca. "Gotcha", an original song co-written by Mauboy, Ilan Kidron and Louis Schoorl, was released as a single and peaked at number 43 on the ARIA Singles Chart. The album was well received by critics, who praised the vocals and songs chosen to appear on the soundtrack.
