This Month's Listening Pleasure

.....is Life in Cartoon Motion by MIKA.
This CD has been getting lots of play time in the car whilst I drive the kids around, we all love it and the songs are quite varied. Any trip with music, singing and joy is a good one.

Our collective favourite song is Happy Ending, with Lollipop coming a close  second. My Son also likes Any Other World, my Daughter likes Billy Brown, and I like My Interpretation.

As both of my kids are learning the piano it is also a great CD to listen to to learn about music...we listen to what instruments are playing, when they come in (such as the bass guitar or violins) and playing Great Big Whole Notes.

We also have a bit of action with playing instruments (just like the horn section when we listen to The Cat Empire) and doing the hand actions tht appear at the end of the video clip for Happy Ending.......

I would love to be observing your car trips whilst you and the children are miming along with the horn section in Cat Empire! I can't believe it is only a year ago that we were in Perth and I kept hearing the Grace Kelly song by Mika and saying "Who sings that song?" I might have to crank it up as I head out in the car today! Mox
