#REDIRECT [[Thomas & Friends]]
[[Mike O'Donnell]] and [[Junior Campbell]] wrote songs for the Series from [[1995]] to [[2003]], Series 4 to 7. These songs were not released on TV; they were released on audio cassettes or on videos/dvds (in which case, they were accompanied with a music video). A lot of the time the songs were based off character themes which they had composed and were used as incidental music.
In the [[UK]], the first nine songs were released on an audio cassette in the mid 1990s by [[EMI]], and featured them around narration of a story about a "Best Kept Station Competition" which was told by [[Michael Angelis]]. The songs "That's what friends are for" and "Rules & Regulations" have never been given music videos, though, unlike every other song created for the series.
The songs created for Series 6 and 7 were not released in the UK or Australia, aside from Winter Wonderland.

==Trivia==
*The original given title for "Never, Never Give Up" included three "Never"s, however, a recent [[Singapore]] [[VCD]] release reveals that the correct title is "Never, Never Give Up", although in the song, three "Never"s in a row are used, rather than just two.
*For Series 8 and 9, Engine Roll Call appears at the end of each 30 minute show. Some shows also have other music videos, replacing one of the interactive interstitials.
*The Series 4-7 songs have only appeared on VHS and DVD, and were never shown on television, but some appeared in "[[Shining Time Station]]" and "[[Storytime with Thomas]]".
