When your little ray of sunshine has a cloudy day, what better way to lift his or her spirits than with a few catchy ditties from Oscar the Grouch? How could you not love a grumpy monster who croons an ode to the cacophony of city sounds in "Noise" and imagines a perfect land where "you won't see smiles flash and there's great piles of trash" in "Grouchelot"? Though Oscar may delight in maintaining a perpetual bad mood, these quirky tunes, such as "Let a Frown Be Your Umbrella" and "I'm Sad Because I'm Happy," are sure to bring smiles to the most disagreeable of days. --Deborah Moore

Customer Reviews

A great cd...
Whether child or adult, you will enjoy this cd. You have to love the grouch who has made his living promoting his love for trash, mud, rain, and sounds that grate on everyone elses nerves. The songs are well arranged and the lyrics clever. Oscar is at his trashy, obnoxious best with songs like "I Love Trash", "Let a Frown be Your Umbrella", and "I'm Sad Because I'm Happy." His unique outlook on life is bound to put a smile on any kids face from two to one hundred and two!
