Customer review - 2000-06-23
- This is an awesome CD by an awesome singer!This is my first Art Garfunkel solo album, and I absolutey love it! The songs are so precious. "Lasso the Moon" is a beautiful song. It puts me to sleep every time. "Good Luck Charm" sung by Art's 6 year old son, James, is really cool. He really did an outstanding job! Kids will get a kick out of hearing him sing. "Morning Has Broken" is beautiful, too. It gives praise to the Lord for all the things the morning brings. This CD, in my opinion, is Art's best. Thank you, Art! God bless you!

- A very enjoyable CDI really enjoyed this CD, as did my 7yo son and 4yo daughter. The song "The things handed down" is especially beautiful. I also really enjoyed the duet w/ his young son, "Good luck charm." It is not only well done and sweet, but my kids really like the fact that a child helped make the CD. Many of the other songs are re-makes of favorite classics that are beautifully sung. You can't go wrong.

- An instant classic -one song is lovelier than the nextAlmost all songs, with the exception of the boppy one, Good Luck Charm, sung by his little boy, are quite mellow...and very appropriate for bedtime. Dreamland and Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, moreover, are perfect as such. It'd be difficult for me to pick a favorite song - all have beautiful, catchy melodies and words. Some, in their evocativeness regarding parent-child love, still bring tears to the eyes of this new parent. That said, many of these songs are also touching when listened to as traditional love songs. Finally, the writers of some of these songs include Lennon/McCartney, James Taylor, Mary C. Carpenter, Marc Cohn, Garfunkel and others.

- One of my all-time favorites!!!Garfunkel's out-done himself this time! What a truly fantastic combination of tunes! His rendition of Marc Cohn's "Things We've Handed Down" is incredible. "Lasso the Moon" has become a theme song for my son and I ~ This is an album that every home needs!

- My kids love it and so do II've always loved Art Garfunkel's fabulous voice, but I was surprised by how wonderful this CD is. I expected "kiddie songs" and that isn't what this feels like to me. "Morning Has Broken" and "The Things We've Handed Down" are both beautifully sung and are 2 of my favorite Garfunkel singles of all time! My children also love this CD, especially singing along with Art's son James in "Good Luck Charm." Guaranteed to make you smile! "Lasso the Moon" is another wonderful song! Highly recommended for anyone.
