Mr. David - Jump in the Jumpy House
- Mr. David’s “Jump in the Jumpy House” is the follow-up album to his award-winning 2006 album, “The Great Adventures of Mr. David,” which was named one of country’s Top 10 albums for kids and families. “Jump in the Jumpy House” has tracks that are just plain fun and will educate both children and grown-ups about life and having a joyous time while you are still young.
“Hey! It’s Lunchtime!” celebrates a time of the day when amusement is on the menu. Mr. David sings about how much he enjoys having lunch and the things one can do. “Lunchtime, is my favorite time. Hey, it’s lunchtime…It’s time. Lunchtime is a good time for pizza…Lunchtime is a time to climb up my favorite tree.” There is sprightly drum work and clapping as Mr. David expounds about the joys associated with his preferred period of the day.
The title track has drum and guitar play that have a rock feel, as Mr. David goes on about having a jolly old time even if it is an ordinary day. “Jump in the jumpy house. Jump in the jumpy house. Jump in the house. It’s not my birthday…Jump in the jumpy house.”
On “Cabin Blues” the intro has outdoor sounds such as crickets and wind. Mr. David sings about relaxing and having an internal powwow about the wonderments of life, but also how it can get boring. “Down by the river just to breathe some morning air. See the mountains in the distance. It’s amazing I’m still in existence. I’m here. In a cabin in the middle of nowhere…Daydreamin.’” Mr. David’s voice is sedate and the tempo of the song is labored, as he goes on about kicking back but feeling a bit of the doldrums at the lack of anything exciting happening.
“Jump in the Jumpy House,” from Mr. David, is a record that everyone in the house can listen to. The songs on this album are filled with enjoyable lyrics and melodies will bring a smile to the faces of people of all ages.
