one of the best reasons to watch tv with your kids,

This review is from: Oswald: Pop Goes the Octopus (Audio CD)
In the hurly-burly frentic world that is often kids TV, along comes a simple octopus, his wienie dog and his friend Henry the Penguin among others. Even with all its simple pleasures(story, art, themes), the best reason to watch this is the music. Often I will find myself humming the simple acoustic theme in my head while at work. Now the best songs are collected in this album. The music is great, with most of the songs sung by Fred Savage, who voices Oswald. Now Nat King Cole he isn't, but his simple warblings only add to the charm. The two songs sung by Tony Orlando are also quite cute. The tunes are short, catchy and memorable. Now my daughter and I can turn off the TV, turn on the CD and still enjoy Oswald.

An excellent choice for children or adults,

This review is from: Oswald: Pop Goes the Octopus (Audio CD)
This CD has proven to be a wonderful purchase. The songs are very soft and gentel and perfect for relaxing or bed time. We have an 8 month old daughter, and this music has proven to be the best yet to help her sleep.
I must admit as an adult, I also love this music, it is very well done and pleasant to listen to, and I often find myself humming the melodies or singing the songs throughout the day.
None of the songs are very long, and the music on the disk itself goes by fast, but it seems to be a perfect mix of great melodies that are perfectly timed to not be annoying or boring.
Whoever wrote these songs did an amazing job. If you have children or if you simply love good music from horns, violins and piano this is a sure winner.
