Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0050086138074 Format: Enhanced Label: Walt Disney Records Manufacturer: Walt Disney Records MPN: 861380 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Walt Disney Records Release Date: October 04, 2005 Studio: Walt Disney Records Editorial Review: Amazon.com: New Agey pianist Jim Brickman's history with children-friendly material goes back a long way--one of his early assignments was writing for Jim Henson, after all. On this album, he tackles Disney songs, although that definition is rather flexible. New tracks "Beautiful" (featuring vocalist Wayne Brady) and "I'm Amazed" (featuring country singer Lila McCann) aren't actually from any movie or TV show but inspired by Cinderella. (Other singing guests of note include former American Idol contestants Kimberley Locke and Josh Gracin.) Brickman's approach is so mellow that it's hard to tell the tunes apart in a Mary Poppins medley made up of five different songs, including the usually upbeat "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious." This actually extends to the entire album, which feels like an extended medley. On the plus side, nothing comes in to peskily disrupt the soothing vibe. --Elisabeth Vincentelli Average Rating:

Actually, I have listened to it twice, and it seems like the kind of pleasant, quiet, familiar music that just melts into the background. ...

But this cd is without a doubt my favorite. It's mellow enough to play during naptime and the kids enjoy it but the adults in the room enjoy it too. And we don't go crazy from hearing another rendition of something like "5 Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day." The renditions of classic Disney songs include my favorite "Reflection," but then there's the original song "Beautiful" with Wayne Brady ...
