Free Music Notes for Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions of NirvanaFree Music Review: Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children? Hit: 1 StarsThe grungey sound of the Seattle scene sounds perfect for the nursery,doesn't it,with the late Kurt Cobain,clad in flannel, belting out "Come as you are,as you were,covered in bleach"? This latest "Rockabye Baby!" horror attempts to turn grunge into kid-friendly songs with glockenspiel and mellotron. It's true Cobain sang of the umbilical cord and the uterus in "Heart Shaped Box",one of Nirvana's hit albums was "In Utero",and the legendary cover had a swimming naked infant... but that doesn't make Nirvana kid-friendly.
"Rockabye Baby!" turns Nirvana's eerie songs into equally eerie instrumentals. There are versions of "Lithium","Come as you are",and "Heart Shaped Box"... but it's music fit for a carnival in Stephen King's IT. Nirvana is hardly a musical paradise for the little ones.
Free Music Review: Demented Clown Music Hit: 1 StarsI have to agree with some of the previous reviews - "demented clown music" os an accurate description. It was just creepy and boring.
Free Music Review: Not my cup of Pennyroyal Tea Hit: 1 StarsThis is just wrong on so many levels. I agree with the previous review. It sounds like demented clown music. What would Kurt say?
Free Music Review: A little too scary - there are better ones in the series Hit: 2 StarsI have the Rockabye Baby CDs for NIN and Tool, so I thought Nirvana would be just as much fun. However, these songs were scary. I'll be playing this as my Halloween music. Honestly, most of this sounds warped and evil. It's probably because Nirvana did not write very complex arrangements - most were basic and fast, and it sounds like murderous clown music when slowed down and music-boxed.
I won't be playing this for my little one, but it is very effective mood music if you want to terrify someone.
Free Music Review: Who would have thought... Hit: 5 Starsthat Nirvana tunes would be soft and soothing as lullabies!! I love this CD and play it often for my daughter, especially during morning naptime. The melodies are perfect to lull her to sleep.
