Written and arranged by the ex-[[Motown]] producer [[Norman Whitfield]],<ref name=Simpson2021>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/jul/12/how-we-made-car-wash-by-rose-royce |title=How we made: Car Wash by Rose Royce |last=Simpson |first=Dave |date=July 12, 2021 |newspaper=The Guardian |access-date=July 13, 2021}}</ref> the song was the group's first single and one of the most notable successes of the 1970s [[disco]] era. "Car Wash", the theme of the 1976 film ''[[Car Wash (film)|Car Wash]]'', was Rose Royce's most successful single and the [[lead single]] from their first studio album, the [[Car Wash: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack|''Car Wash'' soundtrack]]. Reaching number one on the US ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' [[Billboard Hot 100|Hot 100]] and [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|Hot Soul Singles]] charts, "Car Wash" also peaked at number three on the [[Dance Club Songs|National Disco Action Top 30]] chart and reached number nine on the [[UK Singles Chart]] in February 1977. The song was covered in 2004 by [[Christina Aguilera]] and [[Missy Elliott]], who released their version as the single for the ''[[Shark Tale]]'' soundtrack. ==Background== The former [[Motown Records]] producer Norman Whitfield had been commissioned to record the soundtrack album for ''Car Wash'' by the director [[Michael Schultz]]. Although Whitfield did not want the project, he decided to do so, both for financial incentives as well as the chance to give Rose Royce, a disco/funk backing band that Whitfield signed to his own label in 1975, the exposure they needed to become mainstream. Unable to develop a theme song for the film, inspiration finally struck Whitfield while watching a game of basketball, and he wrote his first draft of "Car Wash" on a paper bag from a fried chicken eatery.<ref name=Simpson2021/><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2008/sep/19/popandrock.normanwhitfield|title=Obituary Norman Whitfield|work=The Guardian|accessdate=July 2, 2019}}</ref> The resulting song set the mood and tone for the [[comedy film]] it was commissioned for Rose Royce's lead singer Rose Norwalt ([[Gwen Dickey]]). It describes a fun and easy-going car washing business, where everything is "always cool/and the boss don't mind sometimes if you act a fool". The ''Car Wash'' soundtrack, a [[double album]], was Rose Royce's first album, and the title track was their first single. "Car Wash" sold 2&nbsp;million copies and was a number one success on both the Billboard popular and R&B charts in the United States and a top ten success in the United Kingdom. The song was number one on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 for one week, from January 23 to January 29, 1977, replacing "[[I Wish (Stevie Wonder song)|I Wish]]" by [[Stevie Wonder]] and replaced by "[[Torn Between Two Lovers]]" by [[Mary MacGregor]]. The ''Car Wash'' soundtrack album, entirely recorded by Rose Royce and Whitfield, spawned two more successful singles, "I Wanna Get Next to You" and "I'm Going Down" (covered in 1994 by [[Mary J. Blige]]). The ''Car Wash'' soundtrack won a 1977 [[Grammy Award for Best Score Soundtrack Album for a Motion Picture, Television or Other Visual Media|Grammy Award for Best Score Soundtrack Album]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.grammy.com/nominees/search?page=36&artist=yo-yo%20ma&title=&year=All&genre=All |title=The Grammys : Yo-Yo Mama |website=Grammy |accessdate=2016-10-11}}</ref> In 1988, the song was re-released as a [[double A-side]] single with "Is It Love You're After?" in the United Kingdom, peaking at No. 20. ==Track listings== ;UK 7" vinyl<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.amazon.co.uk/Car-Wash-Water-7-Vinyl/dp/B003YWIZIU|title=Car Wash / Water [7" Vinyl]|publisher=Amazon.co.uk|accessdate=January 11, 2015}}</ref> #"Car Wash" – 3:18 #"Water" – 3:31 ==Charts== {{col-begin}} {{col-2}} ===Weekly charts=== {| class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" style="text-align:center;" |- !scope="col"| Charts (1976–77) !scope="col"| Peak<br />position |- !scope="row"|Australia ([[Kent Music Report]])<ref name=auschart77>{{cite book|last=Kent|first=David|author-link=David Kent (historian)|title=Australian Chart Book 1970–1992|edition=illustrated|publisher=Australian Chart Book|location=St Ives, N.S.W.|year=1993|isbn=0-646-11917-6|page=258}}</ref> | style="text-align:center;"|12 |- {{singlechart|Austria|16|artist=Rose Royce|song=Car Wash|accessdate=January 11, 2015|rowheader=true}} |- !scope="row"|Belgium ([[Ultratop]] 50)<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ultratop.be/nl/song/1c3/Rose-Royce-Car-Wash|title=Rose Royce – Car Wash|publisher=[[Ultratop]].

In an interview, Aguilera said, "We had to change the key to be a little bit higher for my range. So we couldn't take the exact samples, but we brought in all these live instruments to recreate kind of this old, old classic, soulful feel and sound...." "Car Wash" was the only single from the soundtrack to [[DreamWorks Animation|DreamWorks]]' [[Computer animation|computer animated]] film ''[[Shark Tale]]''. Aguilera and Elliott's cover of "Car Wash" missed the U.S. ''Billboard'' Top 40, peaking at No. 63, while becoming a top five hit in the United Kingdom and became the 48th best-selling single in the United Kingdom of 2004 with sales of over 100,000 copies. In this context, the "car wash" the song refers to would be the place where Oscar (the main protagonist, voiced by [[Will Smith]]) works, where large sea animals who behave like cars are washed in the same manner. Aguilera was paid $1&nbsp;million for recording the song.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.boppermusic.com/blog/what-is-music-licensing/|title=What Is Music Licensing?|work=Bopper Music|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200929090917/https://www.boppermusic.com/blog/what-is-music-licensing/|accessdate=September 29, 2020|archive-date=2020-09-29}}</ref> ===Music video=== The music video to Aguilera's version shows her and Elliott as animated fish similar to those in the film, combined with scenes of Aguilera and Elliott recording the song in a recording studio. The video also includes scenes of ''[[Shark Tale]]''.
