By Alex J., Wilmington, DE

     &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;& nbsp;&nbsp;Kenny Loggins, legendary singer, songwriter and guitarist, has been recording for four decades, but &ldquo;More Songs from Pooh Corner&rdquo; outdoes them all. Here, he reveals his passion for life and takes the listener to a place of serenity. With its endearing lyrics, romantic yet innocent melodies, and Loggins&rsquo; gentle, melodic tones, this album is surely appropriate for everyone.<br><br>Of the eleven tracks, seven originate from children&rsquo;s movies, making this a refreshing change from the fast-paced music we are used to. The lyrics show a connection between two worlds: the &ldquo;make-believe&rdquo; of fairy tales and our real world. If you listen to the words, they are very symbolic. <br><br>Likewise, it&rsquo;s difficult to get through &ldquo;Baby Mine&rdquo; from &ldquo;Dumbo&rdquo; without a tissue. It&rsquo;s equally difficult to stay awake until the final chorus of &ldquo;Goodnight,&rdquo; a song written and performed by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. And who won&rsquo;t take comfort from &ldquo;You&rsquo;ll Be In My Heart&rdquo; from &ldquo;Tarzan&rdquo;?<br><br>Lyrics that touch the heart combined with a gentle voice provide an escape from life&rsquo;s ups-and-downs and allow us to connect with our spirit. So, if you&rsquo;re stressed or just need a little encouragement, put on this album and feel better. .<br><br>
