Frere Jacques - Get Your Baby to Sleep

8 views · 8y ago 🎲 Random

I was wondering how to get my son to sleep at night so decided I would record a lullaby. I chose this one and it really works for him (he is exly eight weeks old as I post this). It seems to work better if I sing along as well, either singing a harmony, mimicking the main vocal or singing along an octave higher than the main vocal.\r<br>Laying him on my chest so he can feel the vibration of me singing seems to work quite well too.\r<br>\r<br>This is just a short song which repeats about one hundred times, giving you time to get your baby to sleep. Good luck if you decide to give it a go, just let me know if it works.\r<br>\r<br>There are English words for the song Frère Jacques, it is sometimes known as Brother John or Are you sleeping?, but I much prefer the French version. Apologies for not attempting an accent, I find singing difficult enough already!\r<br>\r<br>(Music and pictures produced by and Copyright Daniel Willows new.)
