Free Music Notes for Still the Same Me
Free Music Review: Not just for kids!
Hit: 5 Stars
This album is a breath of fresh air in an age when so many parents buy records for their kids based on the brand name (Barney, Sesame Street) or perceived educational value (Baby Mozart). It teaches values and self-esteem, lessons that are good for any age (particularly in "Still the Same Me"). It even encourages listeners (children and adults) to pick up their things to a neat Caribbean swing ("Oh My Goodness, Look at This Mess!").
If you are buying this album for children, it would be best to listen to the album with them a few times. That way you can encourage them to clap along with the singing ("Tuwe Tuwe"), or even improvise their own rhythms along with the group (tracks 4, 6, 9, 11, 13, 16). Songs such as "We Shall Not Be Moved" may also turn into a valuable history lesson.
Songs such as "Nature Song" capture the wonder of childhood, and are great to listen to on sunny mornings. With or without children, this album is a good listen.

Catchy tunes, GREAT lyrics, I really really really love this CD! I find myself singing these songs over and over in my head, all day long, and because they're such great songs, this is just fine!Free Music Review: Child-affirming
Hit: 5 Stars
We got this CD as a gift, and are a "white bread" family. The songs are fun, much different than traditional kids music, have very positive messages from a child-raising perspective as well as from the perspective of being a child. Adults will enjoy this as much as children. I would love to take my 3 year old son to a Sweet Honey concert!Free Music Review: Affirming and Child Focused Music CD -- Best Ever!
Hit: 5 Stars
We've been fans of Sweet Honey in the Rock for years. Now we have a child and as multi-racial same-gender couple raising a multi-racial child we want to find a music CD that can teach our child the fun of music and all the progressive values of affirming and respecting oneself and others. This CD is it. It has all the beautiful harmony Sweet Honey in the Rock is known for. The songs are so well written with great melody, rhythm and messages. We've done many "jam sessions" with our child playing this CD and he really enjoys them. We can't wait for him to understand the meaning of the lyrics when he grows up.Free Music Review: One great CD!!

This is the first SHIR CD i have gotten, but I have always loved them singing that song from the "Down in the Delta" CD. "A Patchwork Quilt" I believe it is called. On this CD, I love the Laughter Song, "We Shall Not Be Moved", and "Oh My GOodness, look at this mess", and "Goodnight". These ladies are singing without the benefit of instruments, and they are to truly be commended for it. It is very few people that can do that in this day and age. These ladies ought to be more popular and they are not. But I highly recommend this CD for those who have kids, as well for the kid in all of us. peace.
