Editorial Reviews

From Parents' Choice®

The title, taking off from the word that means a huge number, is defined by album producers Scott Johnson and Rob Babcock as "to live as big as you can; to do what you love to do; to trust what you feel and think for yourself; to sing your own song." Those positive, upbeat messages are found in the songs, all by Johnson, honoring family and celebrating the adventure of life. Sung by various vocalists and arranged and played by Robert Berry, tunes range from the clever counting song, "One 2 Ten" ("One is a wonderful way to begin; Two as a rule is for couples and twins"), to "Rockabye Love," a heartfelt lullaby that Johnson wrote when his wife was expecting their first daughter: "Rockabye baby, rockabye love; You're made from the essence that dreams are made of..." The sweet, simple "Goodnight Mom, Goodnight Dad," is a turnabout lullaby: children sing it to parents. After ten vocal tracks, the rest of the recording offers instrumental versions to sing with. A Parents' Choice Approval. (Lynne Heffley, Parents' Choice, 1999)

Product Description

Googol On! -- 14 original songs inspired by children and parents, equally enjoyed by both.

Tap your toes to "Babies and Butterflies" or get chills during "Here By My Heart." Kids will laugh singing "The Problem with Grown Ups" and you will be inspired to sing your child to sleep with "Close Your Eyes Precious One."

5.0 out of 5 stars Dynamite! Wholesome, not corny, catchy, touching, fun!, November 25, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Googol On! (Audio CD)

There is some great kids music out there, finally! This CD is wonderful. I have one and have bought a few for presents. My kids (ages 8 and 4) love the songs and sing them around the house...The lyrics are the best parts; clever, touching, fun and the kind of songs you want your kids to hear. I love them, too. They reconfirm the values I am trying to instill into my children. But even more than that, it's good music! I'm singing the songs, too!!

Googol On!!!
