Folkie Lisa Loeb has followed the lead of other adult-music artists (including Kenny Loggins and her co-pilot on this album, Elizabeth Mitchell) in making a disc of children's music that can be enjoyed by all ages. Some of the songs are lyrically pitched exclusively to the toddlers (e.g. the traditional number "Little Red Caboose" and the traditional adaptation of"Big Rock Candy Mountain") while others are a tad more sophisticated (a nicely revamped version of "Oh Susanna," and the Beatles-ish "New Morning"). Then there is the laudable ethnic Content-Length: 42648 Content: "La Manita" (Spanish traditional), "Donguri/Rolling Acorn" (Japanese traditional), and "Fais Do Do" (French traditional). The original song "Stop and Go" is a "rocky" participation number and tons of fun, while "Catch the Moon" (also original) is dreamily poetic. And there's never been a tenderer version of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" than the one found here.The songs are rendered in a folk/country acoustic minimalism that is, in a word, enchanting. And the CD comes encased in a children's board book written by Erin Courtney and illustrated by Bonnie Brooke Mitchell. Catch the Moon is a record that the young ones can enjoy (or go to sleep to) while also being entertaining for the rest of the family, even after many plays. Highly recommended.

因为没有CD机，很少买CD，这张算是我为数不多的收藏吧。呵呵，很难得的喜欢，听着总想着睡觉，声音轻柔，断断续续的音符在耳边飘荡，沉迷于现实与童年，那时妈妈的怀抱成为了记忆中甜蜜的糖果。一曲结束，又回到了现实。面临毕业，心情总会无端的烦躁，因为室友都是本市的，经常一个人独守空房，虽然习惯了这样，但在这个时候还是几近崩溃的边缘。很久就在唱片店看到Catch the Moon，一直没有买，终于在一个被实习公司辞职的午后，顺路去买，可是很倒霉的是竟前天被买走了，极度郁闷 ~~~但却因为闲得无聊，和店员聊得很开心，几次买CD，都搭话来着（女孩子哦，呵呵）~还是说正题吧，Fais Do Do是我听得最多的，是喜欢，也有其他，总感觉歌曲没有唱完就突然结束，就像一个美丽的女子脸上被划可一道一样！心里不舒服~。Big Rock Candy Mountain简单的吉他，清晰的女声，晒着阳光躺在绿草地上一般舒服。Little Red Caboose很CUTE的一首，童声不时的映衬更增加歌曲的可赏性。Oh, Susannah，欢快的吉他，轻松的曲调，听到这里，精神不时为之一振，为能不错过这张CD高兴，其他歌曲同样都很好，每首都有可采之处，大家细细品味吧，第一次发帖子，没有经验，只是希望大家喜欢就好！(*^__^*) 嘻嘻……
