2 Tunes 2 Ways

Holiday Time, Island Style

Beth Blenz-Clucas blogs about kid tracks grownups will love and grown-up tracks kids will love

With war, famine, environmental disaster and general bad news permeating our consciousness right now, it’s hard to relax and remember the bright and happy things that are happening in the world. As the holidays approach, it may be helpful to imagine the lives of children in other places around the world. A new song called “Just Like You” by acclaimed kindie artist Jim Cosgrove (also known to his legions of fans as Mr. Stinky Feet) is getting lots of attention and radio play. The song highlights Cosgrove’s award-winning Swimming in Noodles CD.

You can see Jim’s rousing, interactive performance of “Just Like You” and the genuine way he interacts with his young fans in this video.

“You’re a lot like them, and they’re a lot like you” seems like a happy refrain and food for thought at this time of year.
