As I was pondering what tune to present this week, I realized this would be going up on Valentine’s day. A day for love! Un jour pour l’amour! (I’m pretty sure that’s totally wrong and wrecking the beauty of the French language, but my vocabulary is limited to things like colors, numbers, and body parts. Instead of being correct, imagine me saying it like Pepe le Pew and you’ll feel much better.) As soon as I got love in my head, I got a song about it in there, too.
Once again, this week’s song comes from hearing it on Kids Place Live. God forbid I ever have to let my satellite radio subscription go! Charlie Hope has a wonderful lilt in her voice that is so sweet and charming that I think I’d ask her to babysit my kids without a background check. It took me a while to figure out where I knew her voice from, but I finally sniffed it out. She sings on Caspar Babypants’ Mister Rabbit, the very first Kid Tune Tuesday I featured on here! Fitting for Valentine’s Day, I’m showcasing her tune “One That I Love.” What I like about it is that it’s upbeat and makes me feel good. Not to mention that I turn to mush when I hear my kids sing it in the backseat. What trickery! Gotcha! Made ya say you love me! And it reminds me, like the song says, to show my kids and husband that I love them in small and big ways on a regular basis.
I hope I’m not stepping on any type of music feet if I do this, but I found a link (on another site that mentioned this was Charlie’s gift) where you can download this song for free by clicking HERE. And I hope this doesn’t end me up in music piracy jail. Consider my incarceration a little Valentine’s gift…Mwah!
MR B: Mom, I’m not sure I like this as much as you, but this one is nice. It just needs more base and house music behind it…
MISS P: Aw, Mommy, this one is kinda pretty…
