"You buy it to sing your baby to sleep, and end up playing it for yourself. Old classic hits, Queen, Mamas and the Papas, the Ronettes; sung in the most peaceful soothing tone of voice. An extremely relaxing and beautiful album, that's sure to please anyone. Ages 1 day-100 years!"
Hearing these "oldies" as love songs about our babies...

"...changes the way you will hear them if you ever hear them as they were originally recorded, and to me that is a change for the better! The words take on a whole new emotional meaning when you hear them and sing them to your real baby. Lovely and soothing ambient music that you will enjoy and will help baby to sleep. I also found it is nice to use certain tunes as background for baby videos. Linda's singing is angelic and enchanting. This CD, along with Connie Kaldor's "Lullabies Bercuse" and Nicolette Larson's (can't remember name just now) are my 3 favorite lullaby CD's."
The Best Baby CD out there!

"When my 4 year old daughter was a baby, I used to sing "Be my Baby..." to her. Although it was a "Do-Wop" love song from the 50's, I always thought the words could apply to a baby. I was so excited when I found this CD on Amazon. I ordered it right away. The first time I listened to it, I know had my newborn 5 month old daughter in my arms and the words to the songs actually brought tears to my eyes! This CD is done better than any other childrens CD I have ever heard. Linda Ronstadt's voice is absolutely angelic! I have now purchased the CD for a friend who just had a baby, and now my mother will be ordering the CD for herself! It's a must have!"
Soothing and beautifully done

"This joyous CD is a collection of lullabies for babies. Linda Ronstadt's beautifully melodic voice is just perfect for this, producing eleven great lullabies with just the right sound. What makes this CD most interesting is that most of the tunes are rock-and-roll classics, which have been beautifully redone.Overall I thought this is a wonderful CD, soothing and beautifully done with great singing and instrumental backup. The only song that didn't translate well was We Are the Champions, which is the only "off" song on this whole album. But, other than that this CD is great!Singing old, familiar songs as lullabies was something that my wife and I both did, and this album raises it to an art form. As a matter of fact, the CD paperwork contains the words to the songs, which means that you can learn to sing along, while you rock your little one to sleep. This is a great CD, a great gift for any new parents."
