"Get on the Bus" is a song recorded by American group
Destiny's Child, featuring musician
Timbaland, for the original motion picture
soundtrack of
Gregory Nava's romantic drama Why Do Fools Fall in Love (1998). It was written and produced by Timbaland and
Missy Elliott. As with other Timbaland's 1990s productions, the song features some unorthodox elements, including bird sounds. It was released as the second single from Why Do Fools Fall in Love on September 21, 1998 by
Columbia Records and
Elektra Records.
"Get on the Bus" was a moderate commercial success throughout Europe, reaching the top 20 in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. In the United States, it received minor airplay on
urban contemporary radio, peaking at number 63 on the US
R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. An accompanying
music video for the song was directed by Earle Sebastian. The song was later included on the international editions of Destiny's Child's second studio album The Writing's on the Wall (1999) and included in the set list of their 2001–2002
world tour.
