'' was an original composition for the album by the show 's music composer W.G. Snuffy Walden. The track uses snippets of music used in the show between scenes. As the snippets were only ten seconds long, Walden decided to incorporate them into a new piece with the help of the cast. `` Bite Me, Doughboy !

Music from The Drew Carey Show won the Best New Material Record Release accolade at the 12th TV Theme Music Awards in 1998. Lori Sears from The Baltimore Sun gave the album three stars and commented that `` fans of the show will get a kick out of this one ''. Sears thought the tracks performed by the cast were `` priceless '' and called Carey 's version of `` High Hopes '' a `` meek rendition ''. AllMusic 's Stephen Thomas Erlewine also gave the album three stars and said, `` In short, it 's almost everything a Drew Carey fan could want ( even though a version of `` A Taste of Honey '' would have been nice ), and it certainly evokes the nutty charm of the show. '' Dan Goldwasser of Soundtrack.net wrote that fans of the show would enjoy the album and that it was `` worth picking up ''. Daniel Buckley of The Tucson Citizen graded the album a B. He liked the tracks used for the show 's song and dance numbers, but disliked the clips from the show itself with the cast, such as `` High Hopes '' and `` Tomorrow ''. Buckley dubbed the album `` a dream come true '' for fans of the show, but added that general music lovers would also enjoy it. Nicole E. Rogers, writing for The Wisconsin State Journal, thought the album was better than some of the other TV soundtracks released around the same time, as the music was actually relevant to the show. While commenting on The Drew Carey Show, Theresa Carpine Ferris from The Spokesman - Review quipped, `` All of the music on this show was so great, an album was made. It 's not the same, however, without seeing the antics that accompanied the music on the TV series.
