Rock the Vote: Who Should We Rockabye Next?
Hey lullaby lovers,
We've updated our poll at the Rockabye Baby! online store. Go check it out and vote for your favorite candidate to be lullabied. If your choice isn't on the poll, leave it here in the comments. Your pick may make it onto future ballots.
Some of you may wonder why we haven't released lullaby renditions of all the great rock bands on the poll yet. It takes months and even up to a year to make a perfect lullaby album. We work really closely with the producers, draft after draft, to get the instruments sounding as soft and sweet as possible. We hope the work pays off in the sound of silence coming from your nursery!
So what are we up to now? Lullaby Renditions of Queen is still rocking the cradle and Aerosmith is coming out Sept. 15, with liner notes by Steven Tyler! We're hard at work on our lullaby renditions of Guns N' Roses and it's so fabulous we can't stand it. That will be followed up by Kanye West. Oh, yes, you heard us right! Our first Rap-a-bye Baby! It's going to be super swell.
Not only that, but this fall we have a way cool gift edition coming out -- it's a download card good for any Rockabye Baby! digital album, housed in an adorable eco-friendly package with a baby food recipe, temporary tattoos, paper dolls, and more fun stuff. This is going to be the world's best baby shower gift, because you don't have to guess which CDs your friends want, or what they might already have. View it here.
Oh, yeah, we updated the look of our blog, too! What do you think?
That's a lot of work for such sleepy bears to handle, but luckily for us, napping is always encouraged at lullaby world headquarters.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ,
Your friends at Rockabye Baby!

How can you even consider some of the artists when you haven’t done David Bowie? He could easily fill 2 cd’s and he should have been second on your list after The Beatles. I haven’t even seen a discussion anywhere including his name and yet you’re throwing names like Bon Jovi and Slayer on the poll? Wow.
Jacob
Most definetly Slayer, they saved me!!!!
Nicole
Love all the songs soo far, still trying to decide what albums i want to get myself… theres sooo many awesome ones :) wish there was compilation disks)ones where we pick the songs from the different albums and you just make it on one disk), or like multi pack purchases:) Cause theres just soo many great ones so far :)
Anyways my suggestions for new ones would have to be as following.
-Linkin Park(fav)
-The Used
-Three Days Grace
-The Doors
-Papa Roach
-Evanescence
Lastly – 3Doors Down
Johnathan
Howdy folks!
Thanks for all the great ideas and passionate responses! Jacob, we are already hard at work lullaby-ing David Bowie, which is why he’s not on the poll.
Dream on…and on and on,
Your friends at Rockabye Baby!
Rockabye Baby!
I’d love to see your spin on Coldplay’s X&Y, give you already have “A Rush of Blood to the Head”. Other ideas:
The Frames Arcade Fire Crowded House Harry Chapin (“Cats in the Cradle” makes him an obvious choice) REM (seriously, you haven’t already?)Looking forward to whatever you come up with next :-)
Damien McKenna
Wow! Kanye West? Really? There’s got to be a better Rapper than him! Anyone else would do!!

I strongly feel that Evanescence should be the next. There music is great. I got the ‘Nirvana’ Rockabyebaby for my nephew when he was a newborn and it worked a treat. Put him to sleep everytime. Imagine what Evanesence would do.
Here’s some that I would love you guys to come out with
*Evanescence (kinda courious as to why it had not been done?)
*KoRn
*Seether
I would def!!! buy these ones. :)
