"As soon as my son heard the first song, he ran for his wooden trains, and began assembling them. We also have a whistle like the one Paul uses. The tune for parents especially touched me, as I heard the words, "you did your best". In the evening before bed, my son reminded me of playing the CD and he also requested it the next morning. I shall gift it to the pre-schools, I work at both as a parent and as a substitute teacher. The lyrics are joyful, spiritual and intelligent. We look forward to more from this artist."

"I've heard it all -- we like Raffi just fine, and Fogelberg's "House At Pooh Corner -- but Paul Cuneo's gorgeous voice and original lyrics and compositions make this CD a must have.Found out about him quite by accident via a review in the newspaper. The description of his music was so intriguing, we took a gamble and it paid off BIG TIME!No offense to other children's performers, but Cuneo blows most of them away. My older child immediately calms when we put this CD on to play and my youngest is instantly ready to nap. No other performer has this effect on them!The tunes are memorable, the lyrics void of any references to violence, fear, sickness, or death. I dare anyone to find something objectionable on this CD.Mr. Cuneo is a huge breath of fresh air when it comes to children's music and I encourage the skeptical to plunk down their $13 bucks. You won't be disappointed."

""Rest Here" is a fantastic CD lullaby that compares to Kenny Loggins' "Return to Pooh Corner" lullaby. The thoughtful lyrics and wistful melodies have a spiritual tone that lends itself to easy playing as well as listening for the children (and adults). The "piano only" at the end of the CD is a brilliant idea for those who love to sing, and make up ones own lyrics, as the artist suggests on the CD cover."
"Rest Here" is just that!

"The title says it all. This CD makes me feel so comfortable and at peace. I'm not a parent, but I have 14 nieces and nephews. So, I know how crazy lives can get for parents when trying to juggle several things. This CD is full of sweet, soothing songs that would be perfect for any parent looking for the much needed down time for themselves and their child. But to be quite honest, I would play several of the tracks strictly for myself. Paul really brings so many of the songs to life and you can feel him taking on a character in a story. I am looking forward to future CDs by Paul Cuneo."
Paul Cuneo is off to a great start!

"Paul Cuneo is a great musician. He's off to a great start. I am proud to say that we are good friends and he was my music teacher for a while. This CD is mainly for children but if you listen to it you will find yourself singing along; even the next day. He creates some of the nicest melodies. He even wrote the lyrics and music to our school song! Night Train is a great song to start with. I hope that whoever reads this will get interested and buy this CD. He has spent a lot of time on this and it shows. Please, don't just decide not to buy this because you have no kids. You won't regret having this."
