I have been thinking about making an album of children’s music for years, and have kept a running list of songs I love from my childhood. On the recent occasion of my 40th birthday, the album took a slightly different direction as I reflected on getting older, and just what it means to be ‘young at heart.’ So, here alongside the kids’ fare and novelty tunes you’ll find some life-lessons, a few philosophies, and a number of charming reflections on perspective.
I hope you enjoy this collection of songs, that you sing along, that you share it with your kids, and that YOUNG AT HEART brings you happiness for years to come.
