Various Artists - Sing Me to Sleep, Mommy

Echoing the love of God as the heavenly father, 10 artists of both the sacred and secular traditions spread motherly love on Sing Me to Sleep, Mommy, a gently inspirational recording for wee ones and their parents. Sandi Patty's "A Mother's Prayer" begins with a child sleepily uttering the all-too-familiar words: "Now I lay me down to sleep." Veronica Petrucci's "Star Against the Night" draws from both traditional gospel and R&B balladry, "My Prayer for You" shows disco diva Donna Summer's softer side, and Sierra's overwhelming sentiment on "He Gave Me You" is gratitude. Other featured mommies include Debby Boone, Kathy Troccoli, Crystal Lewis, and Lari White. --Paige La Grone Amazon.com

Not lullaby worthy - too "voicey"

We just received this as a gift. I was very excited as I LOVE lullaby music, but the excitement didn't last long.

The vocal "talents" are distracting on most of the songs and the music on The Sleep Song isn't peaceful but almost eerie . I don't find this CD quieting or soothing as I expect a lullaby should be. It's nice music, just not lullaby worthy.

My favorite lullaby cds are Bless My Baby Boy and Sleep Sound In Jesus. July 1, 2008

Precious

Got this CD for my baby granddaughter. It has beautiful songs. She seems to recognize the songs now, and she enjoys the music playing. I love to listen to it when my granddaughter comes to my home The songs are so sweet and precious. I recommend it highly! April 15, 2008

Awesome !!

I got this CD hoping it would be good, but I had no idea just how wonderful it would be. My 15 month old LOVES it. We dance to sleep with it almost every night...and sometimes at naptime. The words are so touching and truly come from a mother's heart. This would also be a wonderful gift for a new mother or mother to be!! August 13, 2006

Perfect Baby Shower Gift

After my son was born, I found it hard to find music to play when I put him to bed at night. A friend told me about "Sing Me to Sleep, Daddy" and "Sing Me to Sleep, Mommy". My son will turn 3 in April and we still play these CDs every night when we put him in bed. I love that my son hears every night how much he is loved.

It has also become the gift that I give everyone expecting a baby. March 11, 2006

What A Great Buy!

I had been looking for a cd that I could play for my baby before she is born (we're due in two months)and can't believe my luck! What an awesome cd! I cry every time "we" listen to it! The songs are simple enough for a novice to sing to her little one. I'm ordering one for my friend who just had her baby! A definite must-have! September 11, 2001
