Rockabye Baby Contest!

by Erinn

Any parent knows that kids songs, are usually just for kids. I know I want to poke my ears out hearing “Cinderella” sing some day my prince will come or some high pitched kid singing pop goes the weasel, over and over again. The same goes for lullabies.
We would play classical piano music instead of traditional lullabies for our kids, because if we had to listen to it, we at least wanted to enjoy it! I guess you can say we are music snobs, but how much can you take?

Rockabye Baby! saved our day. Rockabye Baby is not traditional lullabies, but rock classics that YOU love that are transformed into beautiful instrumental lullabies. Everyone from The Rolling Stones to Metallica to Coldplay are reconstructed into lullabies using instruments like the glockenspiel, vibraphone, mellotron, harp and bells.
Yeah, I don’t know what they are either, but it sounds amazing.

The kind people of Rockabye Baby sent us a few CDs to check out and we were instantly in love. My husband sings Pink Floyd songs to our kids every night, and he loved the Pink Floyd cd more then my kids did. I even caught him bringing it in his car to listen to while at work.
The Nirvana cd turned all of my favorite Nirvana songs into music for little ears. They are beautiful, calming music that would be perfect for any baby and the parents that love them.

Deadline for this contest is midnight November 23. Good Luck!

    That sounds wonderful! My daughter is constantly making up her own versions of the songs but it would be nice to give her (and me) some more options!
    What a great idea!
    I guess if I don’t win, I’ll have to buy them. :-) Thanks for the chance!!

    I have been wanting to get these CD’s for my kids! However everytime I get to the CD store they don’t have any in stock.
    My boys would go crazy over them! They love to dance and sing all the time! My 5 yr old wants to be a singer when he gets older,right after he becomes the Red Power Ranger! LOL
    Great Contest!
