Music reviews of The Backyardigans
Music Review: Good CD, but it can get grating......unless you're a kid.
Rating: 4 Stars
When I looked for this CD (for my son, of course), I wondered if the songs from the hit show would be included, and which ones.
I was somewhat impressed by the listing, and actually found myself playing the CD even without the little one tagging along.
In case you're clueless or don't have a child, The Backyardigans is a show about 5 preschool friends and their adventures in a backyard. The show itself is actually put together well, as there's a ton of music and dancing. What puts the show above the others (in my opinion, anyway) is the sheer diversity of the musical numbers, from reggae to rock, to hip-hop to country, to show tunes to jazz, and even dixieland, among other genres. This CD represents some of the songs from the show.
To be honest, you would have to watch the show itself (because of all the different dance numbers and the like) to get the full effect. But as an abstract of the show, the CD does its job well. There are 19 songs from various episodes, and many genres are represented here - Latin, disco (side note - if you can, watch the episode "Quest For the Flying Rock"......feels like "Saturday Night Fever" with all the retro disco dances"), big band, jazz, and others. While some of the songs are only 2-3 minutes long (if that....some songs barely range a minute), the CD moves quickly and there's just enough of the song to keep it in your head (and drive you insane, but your mileage may vary).
Since I'm a musician, I really got into the sheer diversity of the genres, and the music itself is put together well. And some of the songs are the "full" version, as in the version you don't hear on the show. I even like the last song being a lullaby, which I put on repeat sometimes if I need my son to go to sleep on a long car ride. My only complaint is that at about 45 minutes, they could afford to put some more songs on the CD, but the rest of the space is taken up by the "Go Go Go" video from "Race Around The World" (which has no songs representing it on the CD).
Still, the young'uns who watch the show will get a kick out of it, and the CD is really designed with them in mind. So if you have kids, I would probably snap this up immediately. If the kids don't watch the show, I would at least give this a try - the many genres here will get kids exposed to other types of music. If you're a fan of music, I would probably check it out (at least privately if you're afraid your friends will laugh at you).
