I love this album
Larry Groce is the singer in this series and his voice is very friendly and sedating. I've loved his music since I was four years old and I still do. The sound of his voice relaxes me and even helps me sleep at night. The song "I'm a Policeman" is a good sedative for me and I recommend it to other children and their families. Larry is a good man and a pleasant singer.

awesome
Love this cd!when i was a kid i used to have it on a record!I was very happy to see that disney put it on a cd!Now my children will be able to listen to the funny music that i grew up listening to!

My Daughter Loves It
Perfect CD to play to keep my daughter occupied during those long drives in the car.The whole family can join in to sing. ... Read more

not the best lyrics
I bought this CD for my two year old. Had I known that one of the songs refers to a drunken sailor who should be put away until he is sober, I would have purchased something else.
I think Disney should be more careful of what they put on their CDs.

Love it!
What a great cd! I have wasted so much money on cd's that say they have the traditional versions of the songs only to end up with real rubbish with electric guitars, distortion and rap!! Its enough to drive parent. . . and child . . .insane! This collection is absolutely wonderful. The songs are the ones you grew up with, sung in a way that encourages sing-alongs. I'm getting a second copy for the car!

Vol. 2 is good, but not the best.
I have owned all four volumes of the Disney Children's Favorite Songs since I was three years old, and although this one is enjoyable, I think it is probably the poorest of the four.The songs just aren't as much fun to listen to as on the others, and I recall that one of them, "Old Blue," in particular, used to frighten me when I first got the tape because the singer sings that his dog died. Well, I'm over that fear now *muffles a sob* but I still don't think this tape is the best one to start off with.I'd advise buying all four volumes together, and if you only want to buy one, get Vol. 4.It's undoubtedly the best. ...

Not the best for sing along
This album is not as much fun to sing along to as volume 1. We will probably listen to this album very rarely as I am already looking for another to replace it.

Not your typical wretched children's music
The whole family loves this music (although I shouldn't presume to speak for the 5 month old)and that is more than I can say for most children's music.The singer, Larry Groce has a very good singing voice and his interpretations are great.The music is upbeat without being saccharin.The variety is a definite bonus and most of the songs are timeless classics.We hate hate hate the Wee Sing collection but we love this particular Disney set (we have volumes 1-4).We live in a particularly desolate part of New England and in order to get anywhere worth going we have to drive a minimum of 2-3 hours--this music is so helpful in the entertainment dept!

nice selection of children's songs
This is a nice selection of songs, featuring a couple of nursery rhyme medleys and many classics such as Alouette, Michael Row the Boat Ashore, and the Alphabet Song.

While the selections seem well thought out, they are all performed by the same singers (Larry Groce and the Disneyland Children's Sing-Along Chorus) which detracts slightly from the enjoyment.Another Disney series, 'Classic Disney', features songs from Disney movies and is performed by the original artists.

A nice value. ... Read more

Non-Christians Beware
I just had to say that because I saw this warning in another review for another children's song CD.The CD hadn't given a warning about how "Christian" it was, even though these people could have easily previewed it!They expressed how uncomfortable they felt playing it to their children (I wonder how uncomfortable their children felt about it since the parents carry the baggage).Well, before the great polarization our country has gone through since Disney recorded these classics, Disney had songs that were a mix of old and, relatively, new favorites that included the Creator.Yes, the Disney organization has gone through its rough patches since Walt's passing.I'm sure Walt wouldn't have appreciated some of the darker sides his company reflected after Eisner came to power.Here, though, is a thorough compilation of old favorites, including "religious" ones (e.g. He's Got the Whole World in His Hands).You might even call it a retrospective.And, if you have problems with any of the songs in any children's music CD's, make your own compilation CD and guard your child's innocence (but don't stunt their spiritual health - kids know right from wrong, good from bad, they always amaze me)!You may be surprised at what appeals to your child, and what does not!

Fantastic!
If it were possible to rate this recording ten stars, or twenty, I would.I grew up listening to this one on long car rides, at home, and lots of other places.The songs are fun and comforting, and if I'm any indication, even adults will find them enjoyable to listen to.

Great children's songs!!!
I have all four volumes of the Disney CDs. I would note, for the record, that these are not really Disney movie songs, but just classic children's songs put on a CD by Disney. I think they're great!!! We listen to them all the time. There are one or two that aren't my favorite on there, but otherwise I love them. My children (2-1/2 years and 14 months old) listen to music often at home and in my car. ... Read more

com"YULE"ation cleric : my two cents too,first word first
Goofy sings out as lead ,with the whole Disney club chiming occasionally, on three tracks. The other tracks are mostly sweet lounge music from christmases far past with the album compiler doing an ok job. The real lost gem {collectors take note} is track 3 with music and lyrics by Gary Powell & Chris Martin * 1999. It's a rappin' rage techno spin by Santa and his stomach which must have been a gas to make.Buy it\burn a few tracks\donate to your public library.^ much better than vol.1^ ... Read more

Editorial Review

Cynical types will accuse Disney of milking the "greatest" concept untilit's drier than Tinkerbell's fairy dust ("Supercalafragilisticexpealidocious," "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Da," and "Heigh Ho" were hits off of Vol. 1; "Bare Necessities," "It's a Small World," and "Some Day My Prince Will Come" stole the show on Vol. 2), but aglimpse of this installment's track listing is all it'll take to squash their suspicions. Once again running reverse-chronologically, Vol. 3 opens with Jonatha Brooke's gorgeously achy ballad "I'll Try," from 2002's arguably not-so-great Return to Neverland, and gradually reaches back through the years to re-raise the curtain on Toy Story 2 ("When She Loved Me," performed by Sarah McLachlan), The Lion King ("Can You Feel the Love Tonight"), Mary Poppins (Julie Andrews's classic "A Spoonful of Sugar"), Pinocchio ("Give a Little Whistle"), and a bundle of treasured others, bottoming out at 1933's "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" from The Three Little Pigs. Vol. 3 is not without its weak moments--would a G-rated movie-goers' poll produce Beauty and the Beast's "Gaston" or The Hunchback of Notre Dame's "Topsy Turvy" on a hits list? Seems unlikely. Still, the bulk of these tracks are, as the included Little Mermaid song goes, "Part of Your World," and the spread of decades they represent proves their staying power. Don't expect Disney to latch the lid on its inexhaustible archives until a dozen or so of these records, each as strong as the next, beckon you back for more. --Tammy La Gorce ... Read more

Some gems, some duds
The previous two volumes of this series, chosen by Leonard Maltin and graced by his excellent liner notes, were enough draw to make me buy this one "for my son." Unfortunately, Maltin wasn't involved in this one, and it shows.

I am glad I have it - if only to keep from buying the full soundtracks of all these movies just to get a clean copy of Pat Carroll singing "Poor Unfortunate Souls" (Little Mermaid) or "Everybody Wants to Be a Cat" (Aristocats) or Elfman's fabulous "What's This?" (Nightmare Before Christmas).

I suspect most folks will do what I did, and buy the CD because a few of the tunes still resonate - and there's plenty of power here for that. The "Siamese Cat Song" certainly isn't great art, but it transports me back to child state - where I feel I'm listening to my scratchy old 45 - quicker than you can say "Fess Parker."

I appreciate that the compiler - Ted Kryczko -stuck with Maltin's winning formula of old and new. But his sense of drama and pacing aren't the best. Yes, the Jonatha Brooke and Sarah MacLachlan cuts - featured one and two on the set - are pretty and sweet. I'm sure it's frustrating that these great cuts didn't get heard enough, because the movies were weak. You still don't start with them. Lead with your strengths.

Oh yes, the 6-year-old does appreciate it, but prefers volumes 1 and 2. (Nearly forgot my cover, there.)

Great music...but save a bundle with the 5-disc set!
This CD is great. It has both old and new Disney classics. But...for a little more money you can get all these songs and about 80 more. The 5 disc set sold here at Amazon has 99 Disney classics and sells for about the price of 2 CDs. The 5 disc set includes songs such as Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah from the no-longer released Song of the South, songs from the theme parks like the Electric Light Parade theme, It's a Small World from the NY World's Fair...it has them all! Buying the CDs seperately you probably spend twice as much + shipping; save some money--the 5-CD set is the way to go. ... Read more

Awesome
This CD has been given low marks because it's not a CD+G. That is mainly because it is not understood that once upon a time,
before CD's, karaoke was done on audio cassettes. Audio Cassettes did not have lyrics. People had to read off a sheet. People had to learn a song well. People still had fun. The same formula works on CD!

If you've ever bought any other karaoke CD's (esp. at this price range), most of the vocalists are mediocre at best, and the instrumentation ranges from barely acceptable to absolutely horrible MIDI Music.

Contrast this with the beautiful instrumentations and excellent guide vocalists on this CD and you have yourself a 5 star CD at about 1/3 the price and rivalling if not exceeding the quality of the top Quality Karaoke Brands.

The only minor irritant is that on the instrumental tracks, the melody line is played by an instrument (vs. normal karaoke where the melody line is left to the singer only). Minus 1 star for that.

So if you can't handle reading off a lyric's sheet and learning how to really sing the song, then this CD is not for you. But, If you are looking for top notch, well produced Disney Karaokethen you should definitely check out this CD.

Terrible disapointment
I opend the CD filled with joy till it started; at the beginning I thought there should be some kind of mistake but no, there were no letters. Not even one word, we couldn't sing at all; we just had the letters printed in very tiny letters but no guide to sing.

This is NOT Karaoke
This is not true Karaoke--there are no onscreen graphics to accompany the songs.There are 10 songs with and without words.The songs with lyrics are not even by the original artists.They sound awful sung by some unknown singers.This is the biggest Disney rip-off yet. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Lullabies lend themselves to woozy re-creations, a sort of endless repetition that flags under the weight of the concept (putting kids to bed for their much-needed sleep) and the lack of weight accorded to the music. You might expect a Disney lullaby collection to be on a par with the most mediocre collections, but this one is really a fine set. The tunes are standard--from the famous "Brahms Lullaby" to "All the Pretty Little Horses"--but they're uniformly excellent and creative, staying within the realm of acoustic music that sounds and feels organic. These are Disney-related tunes, for the most part, so "Stay Awake" is here, as is the whimsical "Sleep, Daddy, Sleep." Musically, the set is varied, steering away from a repetition of instrumentation or delivery. That makes it easily entertaining enough for back-to-back listens, which any parent will be asked for with this collection. --Andrew Bartlett ... Read more

boooooring, bad voices
Most of the songs are boring and I cringe when some of the singers try to hit high notes.I love some of my daughter's cds.There are others that don't interest me, but I don't mind them.This one is grating.Luckily, my 2 year old isn't too thrilled with it either and just asks me to play the first song (when you wish upon a star) over and over.I'm going to have to find that song on another album with a better singer.I'd recommend not wasting your money on this cd. For a wonderful, soothing lullaby album, I'd recommend "World Sings Goodnight".It's absolutely beautiful.

Wasn't so happy
I got this CD as a gift. I listen to the song along with my daughter, but she didn't seem to respond to it. the song was so well words can not explain. I bought a fisher Price CD call little people a sind along song and she love that compare to this one.

Don't waste your money
This CD is just classic Disney drivel.I was hoping for a quality recording, but it isn't even that.Cheesy doesn't even begin to describe it.With an organization the size of Disney, it's amazing they can put out such poor quality work.The music is very schmaltzy, the artists are mediocre.

I would give it zero stars, but I can't.

Editorial Review

Instrumental albums from Walt Disney's mega-empire are a rarity. But judging from the excellence of Disney's Lullaby Album--from the superb arrangements to the surprise song choices--you'll probably be hearing more of them. Producer and arranger Fred Mollin exhibits not only good taste and restraint in his approach, but his song choices sweetly complement one another. Treading the fine line between Muzak and genuinely soothing music, Mollin lands softly and sentimentally on such Disney movie song classics as "Baby Mine," "When You Wish upon a Star," and "Stay Awake/Feed the Birds," as well as on other chestnuts such as "Brahms Lullaby" and Kenny Loggins's "House at Pooh Corner." The real delights, though, are the Beatles' "I Will" (rendered beautifully on piano and strings), Louis Armstrong's timeless "What A Wonderful World," the classic "Beautiful Dreamer," the old doo-wop favorite "Good Night My Love (Pleasant Dreams)," and an inspired reprise of "Brahms Lullaby" joined with Gershwin's "Someone to Watch over Me." Complete with sleeping tips from psychology professor Jodi Mindell, Disney's Lullaby Album almost guarantees that you'll fall asleep before the baby does--for all the right reasons. --Martin Keller ...

A Sweet, calming album
I bought this for my baby (now 2) -- she drifts to sleep with this CD nearly every night. It's one that the parents can take EVERY night, too! I now give it as a great baby gift. Some classic songs that I grew up with, all pretty mellow. (We have other cheap "lullaby" albums with some very fast tracks - not soothing at all.) No lyrics on here, which is also a plus for us.

Timeless and Classy: The Definitive Lullaby Album.
This is it.THE lullaby album.It crosses generational lines, most importantly the boundary between the baby and the parent.I'm just glad someone bought it for us, because I wouldn't have taken a second look at a "Disney" CD.No way.But this music reminds me of everything Disney used to be, when there was still a Walt behind the wizard, before it sprawled out of control after his death, to become Umbrella Corporation's Childhood Division (see Resident Evil; Resident Evil: Apocalypse).

Back to the music.Beautifully subdued, subtle, with just enough instrumentation to evoke an almost unbearable nostalgia, a "sehnsucht" (per C.S. Lewis) that is perfect for cradling your babe in arms, from the first day on, and drifting away together, this enchanted music taking deeper root within you each time.

Part of my baby's bedtime routine
It sounds like elevator music to me, but this CD has been soothing my 17 months old to sleep every night since she was a newborn. It is an indispensable part of our bedtime routine. We even bring it with us when we travel. If you are looking for a soothing instrumental lullaby CD for your baby or toddler, this is a great choice. ... Read more

Awesome collection!
I have to say, that with a 5 year old who is obsessed with the movies that these songs go with, it has made the perfect gift! She spends hours listening to this CD while doing more productive activities than sitting in front of a TV watching the movie.The songs are special to her because of the movies, and she actually does her schoolwork well with these fun songs playing.As a music lover and a Disney lover, we both agree at 5 and 30 that this is a hit.

For adult listeners, the Disney songs sung by "real" singers
Trivia Challenge: Included in the 16 tracks on "Disney's Superstar Hits" is the only song from a Disney film to hit #1 on the Billboard Pop Charts.See if you can remember which one it is before I give the answer away at the end.No peaking ahead.

The songs collected on "Disney's Superstar Hits" are mostly from the 1990s; there is "Once Upon a Time in New York City" from way back in 1988 from "Oliver and Company" and a few songs from the 21st century.But the only golden oldie is "Put It Together (Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo)," which comes from "Cinderella II" and not the original.The obvious frame of reference would be to see this collection as representing the Disney Renaissance ushered in by the Alan Menken/Howrad Ashman era, which makes it strange that nothing from "Little Mermaid" is included.But the common denominator to this collection is that the songs are not sung by the characters from these films, or, more properly, the people who did the voices for the characters.So instead of Angela Landsbury doing "Beauty and the Beast" it is Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson.

There are several songs from the less than stellar direct to video Disney sequels, such as "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II," "The Lion King II: Return to Pride Rock," "and "Cinderella II," which would be a minor complaint.But Tina Turner sings one of the songs, so it is hard to complain.In fact, the strength of this collection is indeed the superstar singers.Most of them are blasts from the past such as Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Phil Collins, Sting, Huey Lewis, and Randy Newsman, but there is also new blood such as Christina Aguilera, Sarah McLachlan, Vanessa Williams, and even Jennifer Love Hewitt.Peabo Bryson comes out ahead, with the aforementioned "Beauty and the Beast" and another duet, "A Whole New World" with Regina Belle.

This disc is perfect for grown ups, who like the "real" singers singing the best songs from the Disney movies their kids have been dragging them to for the past decade.Vanessa William's "Colors of the Wind" is my personal favorite, although it is hard not to recall the fantastic opening of "The Lion King" when you hear Elton John do "Circle of Life."On the fun side of the ledger I like Randy Newman and Lyle Lovett working their collective ways through "You've Got a Friend in Me" a bit more than Jimmy Cliff and Lebo M's "Hakuna Matata."

Trivia Answer: "A Whole New World" was #1 on the Billboard Pop Chart for one week starting on March 6, 1993.It is the song that replaced Whitney Houston's cover of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" after 14 weeks on top.

Good CD
This is a great CD, but I was kind of disappointed that there weren't more tracks on it.Other than that, you and your kids will be singing along in the car for sure. ... Read more

my favorite princess cd
i love this cd!my dad got it for me for my birthday3 years ago and i still love it

Perfect for a Princess
I bought this cd for my daughter's 3rd birthday. She LOVES it! She asks me to play it every day and we both sing along to all of the songs. She has even picked up on the songs that she didn't know before she received it. I love it because now she is more interested in listening to the cd and dancing with me in the house than watching a video. In quiet times, she likes to sit on my lap and look at the pictures in the liner notes. The recordings are beautiful, it is the one children's cd that I can listen to over and over. If you have a little girl who loves princesses, this is definitely worth the money.

Great CD!
I'm Also 18 and about to graduate HS and this is still one of my favorite cds! I actually bought this cd about 3 years ago (a different cover-same cd) and LOVED IT! I didn't give "Home" a chance at first but one day I listened to it and it is probably one of my all time favorite songs! I love broadway and I sing and its a very challenging song to sing! Susan Egan has a gorgeous voice! And none more gorgeous than Jodi Benson (Ariel!). My point is this is a great cd, don't ignore it becuase you don't know all the songs...you'll grow to love them as much as the favorites! ... Read more

Another Repackaging Of Princess Favorites
When is Disney ever going to realize that recycling Disney Princess songs aren't such a good idea? As a Disney Princess fan since I was really little I have always enjoyed Disney princess songs.But i am so so so so sick and tired about on just about every Disney album dedicated solely to the Disney Princesses Disney always always ALWAYS has a habit of recycling old princess songs instead of adding new princess songs.I mean people already own half the songs on Princess Favorites and can buy them on the film soundtracks or the Disney princess collection cd.Why I think this cd was released is that Disney was trying to promote the movie Cinderella II Dreams Come True as the songs from that movie are on this cd.But heck one of the songs Put it Together is also on the SUPERSTAR HITS cd.So while this cd may be a redone version of Princess Collection Volume #2 please Please Please PLEASE do not buy,
Thank you very much for your time

Whose Princess Favorites???
I would classify only 3 of the songs on this CD as Princess Favorites - Belle, Kiss The Girl and Once Upon A Dream.The rest are either not Princess songs or not favorites.

My daughter is a huge Disney Princess fan, and wants to hear the songs from the Princess movies non-stop.She's only 3, but she does know her princesses, and the girl from Hercules and Nala from the Lion King are definitely NOT princesses!This is also the first time that I've seen Mulan grouped with the princesses.

We wanted music from the classic Disney Princess movies that she loves - Cinderella, Snow White, Beauty & The Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Aladdin and The Little Mermaid.I do not put Cinderella 2 and Aladdin and the Forty Thieves in that category - were those even released in the theaters, or direct to video?

I am generally a fan of the Disney compilations, but this one feels like a marketing rip-off.Get the Disney Classics 5 CD set if you really want the Princess Favorites - they may be spread out over all the discs, but they are the songs you want to hear!

Save your money!
A friend gave this CD to my little girl for her 5th birthday...she was thrilled to get it.The thrill ended as soon as it was played.She wanted to know where the Princesses were.
There is no Ariel...just a song by Sebastian.No Cinderella, no Snow White, and why would they place an unknown song from the Broadway musical Beauty and the Beast which only has been heard by the people attending the musical??At least Sleeping Beauty made the grade.My daughter has the movie Cinderella II which the CD promotes, but is not familiar with them to really enjoy these 4 songs.
Again, save your money...some day maybe Disney will set aside some of their money and marketing hunger and put out a CD that any 5 year old princess will enjoy singing along with...BTW isn't Beauty and the Beast being re-released...oh yea, thats why that endless song about Belle is on there..Bon Jour! ...

Editorial Review

Disney's Princess Lullaby Album shines light on a key children's release from 2001: Jason Falkner's Bedtime with the Beatles collection. The arrangements here are dripping with keyboards and swathed in strings, but the simple formula--translating familiar melodies and mellowing the music to sweet, soporific levels--works well. And, to be fair, these aren't Beatles tunes. But the Disney songs are recognizable enough that the youngster in need of music as a sleep aid won't be, so to speak, in the dark. Even if films like Snow White, Beauty and the Beast, and, to a greater extent, Mulan, aren't known quantities, Fred Mollin's orchestrations are soothing. Yes, the set will seem monotonous to adult ears, but this can take a nice, mellow spot alongside Disney Babies Lullaby in the twilight rotation. --Andrew Bartlett ... Read more

Love it!
I'm a daycare teacher and first heard this album atwork. Let me tell you it puts the kids right to sleep! When its not playing we have the hardest time trying to get them to sleep. This album works so well, I've bought it for friends of mine and even a spare at home!

My 4-year-old daughter LOVES this!
We've had this CD for nearly a year and my 4-year-old daughter has listened to it literally EVERY night.Purchased it for her during a time in which she was having trouble going to sleep each night and kept making excuses to come out of her room at bed-time.This CD was a dream come true.It has become a very important part of her bedtime routine.We put it on after we finish reading and are ready to leave her to sleep for the night.Sometimes we hear it playing softly during the night or early in the morning, as she will put it back on if she wakes up during the night.It really helps her to sleep!We always take it on vacation, and even had to go out searching for one during a beach vacation last summer as her baby brother got hold of it and scratched it.Thank goodness we were able to find another copy!My daughter's quote about this cd: "It makes me feel like I'm floating on a dream."Enough said!:o)

A great CD from a great shop.
i bought this CD as a gift for my friend. I just wanted to say sorry to her because I had made her angry but it seem very hard for me to say this. Just when I wander around Amazon.com and I found this CD. It looks so cute. I came up with an idea that to make this one as a gift for her. Wow, she really loves it. I love it also. All beautiful songs. I like Disney movies and soundtracks very much. Next time I'll buy a pack of Disney's Greatest Hits.
I really recommend this CD for you guys. ;) ... Read more

my favorite princess cd
i love this cd!my dad got it for me for my birthday3 years ago and i still love it

Perfect for a Princess
I bought this cd for my daughter's 3rd birthday. She LOVES it! She asks me to play it every day and we both sing along to all of the songs. She has even picked up on the songs that she didn't know before she received it. I love it because now she is more interested in listening to the cd and dancing with me in the house than watching a video. In quiet times, she likes to sit on my lap and look at the pictures in the liner notes. The recordings are beautiful, it is the one children's cd that I can listen to over and over. If you have a little girl who loves princesses, this is definitely worth the money.

Great CD!
I'm Also 18 and about to graduate HS and this is still one of my favorite cds! I actually bought this cd about 3 years ago (a different cover-same cd) and LOVED IT! I didn't give "Home" a chance at first but one day I listened to it and it is probably one of my all time favorite songs! I love broadway and I sing and its a very challenging song to sing! Susan Egan has a gorgeous voice! And none more gorgeous than Jodi Benson (Ariel!). My point is this is a great cd, don't ignore it becuase you don't know all the songs...you'll grow to love them as much as the favorites! ... Read more

Fun Disney Hits!
A very fun compliation of Disney songs from newer movies like Hercules, way back to the classic Snow White. If you like Disney at all, this CD is a MUST have!

A Sing Along
This album, like its predecessor, is an awesome compilation of classic and modern Disney hits. You don't have to be five years old to enjoy this collection. Case in point: both my sister-in-law and myself own both the Disney Princess albums, so when we travel together its playing 90% of the time. Even my brother enjoys it. We ALL sing along!!!

wonderful
my daughter loves this cd it is all she ever listens to. It has all the songs from the movies she loves. ... Read more

Great Great Great!
I bought this before my daughter was born and one day I put it in and I loved it!Now that my daughter is almost two we both know the words!It's a funny CD and it makes the drive go by quickly!

Wore out the cassette
I had this "album" on cassette when my son was a baby almost 14 years ago. Expecting another child soon and went looking for it again, along with the Disney Lullaby CD; my teenager still remembers these songs fondly,and I can't wait to share them with our new little one. Tip: put this CD on when you're changing your child and sing to him/her; keeps them fascinated (and still!)

Mickey, Donald, Goofy and the gang sing some silly songs
The idea here is to tickle the ribs of little kids by putting together twenty of the world's wackiest songs and have Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and other Disney cartoon characters make their appearance throughout the album.For example, doing "Ta Ra Ra Boom De Ay!" Mickey and Goofy exchange some bad jokes.A few of the songs have actually appeared in Disney movies, such as "When I See an Elephant Fly" from "Dumbo," which is given a different interpretation by a "teacher."Some of the songs are sung by a group of kids, but most are done by adults singing solo, usually with vocal affectations (e.g., "Little Bunny Foo Foo").If you little ones have never heard these songs, then "Silly Songs" is certainly one way of providing an introduction.Every kid should know the words to "I'm My Own Grandpaw," "A Peatnut Sat on a Railraod Track," "Three Little Fishies," "There's a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea" and the classic "Be Kind to Your Web-footed Friends" (with all due apologies to John Phillip Sousa--and do I really have to tell you who sings this one?). Parents should just look over the playlist and if you know these songs then your kids should too, and it is probably better if they learn then from this record then having to endure you teaching them "Boom, Boom, Ain't It Great to Be Crazy?"Besides, think how their jaws will drop when they find out you already know the words when they try to teach YOU. ...
