We were lucky to be sent a copy to review , the kids grabbed it happily and asked for it to be put on . I planned to have them dancing around to it but unfortunately it did not hold there interest for any longer than the first song (actually by the end of track 1 they were all gone) . Repeated listening has not went down any better.

I don't really blame ZingZillas for this , my kids had only seen the show a few times so none of the music was familiar to them . Also the music is not the type they normally listen to as they are more fans of cheesy silly pop songs.
Not all is lost though as Eilidh has been expressing an interest in the TV show and the past 2 days its been on there must see list . The CD may be end up being a favorite yet .
