"Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle)" is a song by American hip-house duo the Outhere Brothers, released in 1994 by label Aureus as a single from their debut album, 1 Polish, 2 Biscuits & a Fish Sandwich (1994). "Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle)" topped the charts in Ireland, Spain, and the United Kingdom.[1] Although the music video and radio edit of the song featured a remixed, clean version of the song, the original, explicit lyrics were featured on different versions of the track on the CD single.

Critical reception

[edit]

Maria Jimenez from Music & Media noted that "sparse house beats, minimal effects and maximum foul language" are the basis for "Don't Stop (Wiggle Wiggle)".[2]
