Music reviews of Whaddaya Think of That

Music Review: Great CD
Rating: 4 Stars

We bought this CD for our son and niece for their birthdays this year after watching the videos on Noggin. The two of them loved to stomp around to "We Are the Dinosaurs", which isn't even the best song on here, which is saying something. These are different versions of songs we all know, and some really cool originals. The favorites in our house are "I Know a Chicken", "Down Down Baby", "The Cat Came Back", and "I Love My Rooster" (somehow an Octopus made its way into the song once it got here).
My niece is as enamored of the CD as my son is, but she's a Doodlebug fan, which is also my husbands favorite. Never having been a fan of Seinfeld (yes, she managed to work Seinfeld into a Children's song, folks, how's that for creative?) I just can't get into that one.
Probably shouldn't say this here, but after months of looking I finally located egg-shaped shakers/shakey eggs ("I Know a Chicken") at Kidsurplus.com for around $1. Before that I used Easter eggs from a dollar store with rice in them and taped up with packing tape because they were requested one afternoon. They didn't last too long and made a mess so now I have 4 shakey eggs, enough for all the kids who come over to boogie with the chicken. That song alone is reason enough to buy the CD.
Even if you aren't absolutely nuts about the CD on the first run through your child will be, and it will grow on you too.

Description of Whaddaya Think of That

Laurie Berkner serves up a heaping helping of whacked-out, slaphappy lyrics and get-you-moving acoustic guitar licks. The littlest listeners will want to slip on their dancing shoes for such originals as the opening track, "We Are the Dinosaurs," on which a pack of prehistorics prance around, stopping only to eat their food when they're in the mood and take a rest over in their nest. The blues-soaked "I Know a Chicken" teeters on frenzied, shaky eggs and an over-the-top tempo, and the sweet, musically simple "123" tickles sentimental sides with its "koochie-koochie coo / I love you" refrain.

Besides her sure-footedness with her own songs, Berkner also nails a number of traditional tunes here, most notably "She'll Be Comin'' 'Round the Mountain," "ABCD Medley," on which she artfully melds the ABC song with "Row, Row, Row Your Boat," "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star," and "Wimoweh (The Lion Sleeps Tonight)," a gloriously kid-ified rendition of the already infectious original. Overall, this record reflects Berkner's knack for stacking on the fun. Best of all, because of its standout instrumentation, parents are apt to groove along ungrudgingly, thereby setting the stage for a squabble-free shared musical experience.
