Notes
The title, taking off from the word that means a huge number, is defined by album producers Scott Johnson and Rob Babcock as 'to live as big as you can; to do what you love to do; to trust what you feel and think for yourself; to sing your own song.' Those positive, upbeat messages are found in the songs, all by Johnson, honoring family and celebrating the adventure of life. Sung by various vocalists and arranged and played by Robert Berry, tunes range from the clever counting song, 'One 2 Ten' ('One is a wonderful way to begin; Two as a rule is for couples and twins'), to 'Rockabye Love,' a heartfelt lullaby that Johnson wrote when his wife was expecting their first daughter: 'Rockabye baby, rockabye love; You're made from the essence that dreams are made of...' The sweet, simple 'Goodnight Mom, Goodnight Dad,' is a turnabout lullaby: children sing it to parents. After ten vocal tracks, the rest of the recording offers instrumental versions to sing with. A Parents' Choice Approval. (Lynne Heffley, Parents' Choice, 1999)
