Product Description
Album Description
Rock stars are parents too! Times are a changing and it is 2008 and we find multi-platinum recording artist Barenaked Ladies releasing Snacktime, a collection of 24 original children's songs through their imprint label Desperation Records. 'Our collective kids now outnumber the band more than 2 to 1,' explains vocalist/guitarist Ed Robertson. 'We set out to make a record that would be entertaining for them - not strictly a children's record, but a record that children would really enjoy. Our kids are into all kinds of music. Making the focus about what our kids like was a truly liberating process and fun for the whole band.'

Oh those Canadians!,
By Amanda Richards (Georgetown, Guyana) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Snacktime (Audio CD)
"Raisins come from grapesPeople come from apes I come from Canada" (lyrics from "Raisins") This Canadian alt-rock band scores big with my family with this album of 24 original and hilarious songs for kids. For a taste of the album make sure you watch the video on the Amazon product page for the first track "7,8,9", based on the old pun about a very hungry number seven. Whether they're singing about ninjas or pollywogs, allergies or the alphabet, BNL never fail to bring a smile to your face with the clever lyrics and catchy tunes. The ones we really like are "The Ninjas"; "Pollywog in a Bog"; "Raisins"; "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy ii - Popcorn"; "Allergies"; and "I Don't Like". The one that made me smile is "Crazy ABC's", and I'll list a few letters so you can see why. A is for Aisle B is for Bdellium C is for Czar D is for Djinn And further down .... H is for Hour J is for Jalapeno M is for Mnemonic T is for Tsunami The one small problem is that there are a few too many slower tracks that are pretty good as folk ballads, but not so good at holding the attention of younger kids. Some of these are "Louis Loon", "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy i - Snacktime"; "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy iii - Vegetables"; "My Big Sister" and "Bad Day". The melodies are nice, but will be more to the liking of slightly older folk. (Think Gordon Lightfoot) One fun bit of trivia is that at the end of "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy i - Snacktime" various people tell you their favorite snacks, and these people include Gordon Lightfoot, Geddy Lee, Lyle Lovett, Sarah MacLachlan, Jason Priestley, Janeane Garofalo and Weird Al Yankovic. Light-hearted, punny, clever and very, very entertaining - this is an album the whole family can enjoy and sing along to between giggles. Amanda Richards
5.0 out of 5 stars
Fantastic album for kids and adults,
This review is from: Snacktime (Audio CD)
I never leave album reviews, but this one is so great I had to post. If you have children you should have this album. My little guy who is under 2 has been listening to this for about one year and he cannot get enough of this album. As a parent who has to listen to it too it is just great. The songwriting is fantastic and fun and is perfect for kids, but also a lot of fun for adults. BNL has always had a great wit to them and it is alive and well on this album. My son's favorites are Pollywog, 7,8,9, Raisins and Louis Loon. Heck, even I cannot stop humming these tunes (and not in that annoying can't get it out of my head, but I wish I could kind of way). Enjoy!

Enjoyable for parents and children!,

This review is from: Snacktime (Audio CD)
This disc is an entertaining romp with the Barenaked Ladies. My 11 month old listens quite intently and especially likes 789. My husband and I also find ourselves singing along. I would like to commend the group for their quality lyrics, music and Canadian Pride!
