Dreamytime Songs - Sony Wonder Audio Reviews

Sesame Street Dreamytime DVD

Spencer Limbach from New york, Huntington - 5 out of 5.

I would like to buy this item in a DVD please. I am trying to find a sesame street dreamytime the year of 1977. I can see you only have a audio CD for it. I do not want the audio CD for this movie at all. I like to watch it alot of times. I would insist to put it in my wish list for christmas or to buy it today. My return address is 20 beattie CT. I would like to have it at my house to watch at all times.

Definitely not the best of Sesame Street

sunny swimmer - 3 out of 5.

I grew up on Sesame Street and to this day love the music - or so I thought until I bought this CD for my 8 month old son. This collection of songs is definitely no where near the best Sesame Street has to offer. Most of the songs of sickly sweet and hard to listen to. Neither my son nor I enjoy this CD, and it's terribly disappointing because I really think the world of Sesame Street. I intend to buy another from the Sesame Street collection, but this time a CD with songs I recognize the names of.

Not for sleep time!

M. Peruzzi from CLINTON TWP., MI United States - 3 out of 5.

I bought this for my 18 month old son who loves sesame street but he was not to thrilled with it...maybe when he is alittle older. I don't think this will help him to fall asleep, it does not seem soothing/relaxing enough. Kermits songs are the best for relaxing child for bed, or ernies. The others voices are annoying to be honest, never relized it until I bought the cd. I'll proably sell it on ebay and try to get some money back out of it. I would not miss this one for the cd collection.
I read the reviews before I bought cd and even listed to the sample songs....Just was not what I exspected once I listen to the entire cd.

My parents bought this tape for my little brothers when teye were 2 or 3 and we used to listen to it all the time in the car. It was really great for them! Just a couple weeks ago I found myself driving in the car and I found this tape and pulled it out and started singing along, and I'm 18! The music is fun, the lyrics are sweet, and I think it's my favorite kids' album ever! Even though its 'sleepy time' songs, they're not all slow, many are upbeat and the whole tape (or CD) is really just great.

Excellent wind down music

Pizor from London, England - 4 out of 5.

The CD is so sweet and NOT annoying which so many baby CDs are. The first two songs are a bit more upbeat then a standard bedtime CD, but the rest is so mellow and loving. It's not quite as soothing as most lullaby CDs, but keep in mind, the songs are song by the Sesame Street characters. That said, hearing Snuffy or Kermit sing is somehow so relaxing. I don't know if it brings back good childhood memories for me, or what, but it just feels like someone giving me a great big bear hug.

In general, I'd say the disc is better for winding down the kids then absolute bedtime music. But my 9 week old seems to love it anyway. She even falls asleep to the very loud and upbeat Sesame Street Platinum CD. I guess it's just feel good music regardless of the tempo.

I Don't Want to Live on the Moon...

small-towngirl from Small town USA - 5 out of 5.

I agree completely with the other reviewer! This CD is as gentle, loving, and comforting for rocking a baby to sleep as it gets! These are the kinds of songs a little one will always carry with them as a memory of their mother (or father's) caring embrace and that they will find themselves singing to their own children someday. Trust me, I know from experience! My mom played "I Don't Want to Live On the Moon" (on the TV - there wasn't a CD of it back then) and sang along to it when I was 3 years old, crying, achy, and sick one evening - and the tenderness of the song never fails to bring tears to my eyes in fond remembrance whenever the little ones in my life watch it today! And just to illustrate the sheer beauty of the song, regardless of MY memories, my dad even admits to being choked up by it! (not an easy feat, by the way!)

That's not to say this CD is a downer, of course! Not by any means at all! There are mildly upbeat little tunes like "Dance Myself to Sleep" and "If Moon Was Cookie" that are equally as adorable and memorable as my personal tearjerker favorite: I Don't Want to Live on the Moon.

It really is amazing what an incredible gift Jim Henson had. God bless his soul for all of the gentle beauty and love his work was full of. There is something so honest and pure about his Sesame Street songs that you really won't find anywhere else. I highly recommend this beautiful collection of lullabies and hope that I'm correct in assuming this will be a treasured collection of songs to sing babies to sleep to for many generations to come!

delightful!

This is by far my favorite Sesame Street album. The songs are not likely to lull anyone to sleep but the lyrics are so loving, tender and unforgetable you will find yourself singing duets with your small fry very often!
