Customer Reviews

Not as good as the first two CDs, but well worth the price.
The release of any Backyardigans CD is a joyous event in my house. And finally, finally we get some songs from the Race Around The World episode. Unfortunately we don't get the extended version of Go Go Go, but at least a couple of songs that were notably absent from the first two CDs are included here. But there are still some songs excluded from this offering that would've improved it greatly. Huka Pele from The Legend of the Volcano Sisters, Steer Baby Steer from Cops and Robots, and Astronauts Never Give Up from Mission to Mars. Granted, this is my personal opinion, but it is a shame that these three songs are unavailable on CD. Instead this CD gives us a glut of songs from The Tale of the Mighty Knights, which are good, but are still inferior to the three songs mentioned above. Hopefully that will be corrected on a future release. And hopefully they won't take so long to get around to the next CD. My kids are almost 5 and 2 years old, It won't be all that long before they have outgrown the Backyardigans and I'll be forced to buy subsequent CDs strictly for myself.

So 4 out of 5 stars from me. A better song selection and this would've been another 5-star selection.

My kid loves the CD but the packaging is another thing
My daughter's seen most of these episodes and loves to dance to the music. Very entertaining for her and that's why I buy these things. If your child likes the show, they will also like the CD. Great for bopping around and singing.

My one gripe is the packaging. It was not a plastic jewel case. It was a triple folded cardboard sleeve with one side where the CD slides into it and the other holds a poster. Not very convenient access from my point of view. The glue always gives out on these things and then the CD slides out the end.

My feelings about the case are also moot at this point. My daughter shredded it trying to get the CD and poster out which is the only reason I gave it 4 of 5 stars. So, while I now know better than to let her get ahold of one of these paper CD cases in the future, I no longer have an "original" case for the CD. Pretty good thing I have lots of empty jewel cases sitting around.

Not the best but still wonderful
Moment of truth: my four-year-old is not the only member of the family who eagerly awaited the arrival of the third Backyardigans CD.

That said, I don't find it quite as catchy as the two previous CDs. It may be that I found the other musical styles more engaging but the fact of the matter is that I thought the other two discs had more clever songs than this one. That's not to say that this is a bad CD--far from it. My favorites would be the zydeco-inspired "Go, Go, Go!" and the catchy sort of do-wop sounding "W-I-O-Wa". I also like the music from "Tale of the Mighty Knights". However you slice it, though, this is fine entertainment for both children and adults.
