Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

If you've been operating under the impression that songs with the word "bloody" in the title can't make for good lullabies, guess again: given the Baby Rock treatment, "Sunday Bloody Sunday" sounds infant-tested, sandman-approved. And, more important, not even the tiniest bit absurd. With their glockenspiels, vibraphones, and mellotrons, the Baby Rock magicians have spun sweetness and a soothing vibe into everything from "Smells Like Teen Spirit" to "Stairway to Heaven"; given the unthinkable nature of those undertakings, this one seems almost too easy. "All I Want is You" is a little on the snuggly side to begin with, after all, and so is "The Sweetest Thing." No matter how high the bar is set, what's consistent about this series is its knack for getting eyelids to drooping and rock fans to chuckling: Bono and the Sandman make for strange bedfellows, but entertaining ones. --Tammy La Gorce

Product Description

Parents on the lookout for offbeat nursery music might find what they're looking for in Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of U2. An ethereal chorus of glockenspiels, toy pianos, sleigh bells, and synthesizers put a new spin on songs like "The Sweetest Thing," "Desire," and "With or Without You," often to good effect. While there isn't anything particularly revelatory about hearing these instrumental renditions of U2's work, there's nothing unpleasant about them either. Added bonuses can be found in the D.I.Y. mobile in the liner notes and the unintentional typos on the back cover ("U2 are Irelands' legendary musical heros"). This collection is a perfect find for expectant U2 fans and those with a penchant for the strange. ~ Margaret Reges, Rovi

5.0 out of 5 stars These are WONDERFUL March 20, 2007
By J. Kobs
Format:Audio CD
We had been trying to use a music box to play music to get the baby to go to sleep at night. Trouble was, it wouldn't play more than a minute or two. I ran across these things and thought they'd be a little goofy. But I bought a couple anyway. The songs are remarkably recognizable though they are definitely lullaby-like. Works wonders! I can put it in the CD player and set it to "sleep" mode and on "shuffle" and off she goes to sleep. I HIGHLY recommend these CDs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Forget the Baby, This is for Me. February 2, 2009
By Sophia
Format:Audio CD
I don't have any children, but I have a high-stress job. I jokingly asked my husband for a "lullaby" to put me to sleep at night. He came up with these and I love them! They don't really put me to sleep, but they make me feel happy and I'm a whole lot more calm. It is better than listening to the actual U2 songs because I can hum it through the day without having the words run in my mind all the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great children's bedtime music that won't annoy adults October 4, 2007
Format:Audio CD
These Rockabye cds are great. We have about 6 of them. We buy the one's that are of the bands we like. That way the kids listen to them before bed and we don't mind because we are singing the words in our heads to our favorite songs. Who ever created these is ingenious. No words and the music is changed just enough to make it sound kid friendly yet is so true to the original songs that you can't help humming along. Not too mention when a song comes on some where else I find my oldest humming along. It is so cool. I recommend all of these cds. Buy your favorite band, the kids will love it.
