Calms baby.......2007-05-22

We love this CD!!!

Sometimes this is the only sound that can calm our baby. When we turn it on it makes us think of Hawaii and puts our baby's mind at ease.

Memories.......2007-01-05

Loved it; reminds me of the sounds I was able to fall asleep to in my youth in Hawaii.

Sure cure for insomnia.......2006-10-08

Found this at a local library around 20 years ago, bought a copy and after quite literally about 10,000 rotations it is finally making some clicking noises towards the end and waking me up. I didn't think you could wear-out a cd there being no surface contact with the lasar and all, but the noise is there nonetheless so I guess you can. I'm sure I could probably sleep without this thing but at this point it is so ingrained into my subconsious that it is like audible crack. The delicate decrecendo of the rain over an hour-long period, balanced by the soft chirpings of birds and crickets will lull you into oblivion.

Recommended For Sleeping.......2006-09-18

I love this CD. My wife and I have kept it playing on repeat, every night, for the past 4 years. If you like rain, I definitely recommend it.

I spent a long time looking for a CD that was pure rain. Most have thunderclaps, and some even have frogs and honking geese. The closest that I found, a CD that actually featured a rainstorm without any animal noises, sounded tinny and unnatural. It was like listening to radio static. It wasn't relaxing. It was annoying.

This Hawaii rain shower was a good compromise. It does have mild cricket noises and some bird chirps toward the end -- but they're subtle, and I think they help to trick my mind into thinking that I'm hearing rain rather than static coming from the speakers. I would also admit that this CD isn't optimal for repeat playing, because over the course of an hour the rain slows and ends softer than it began; but we've been using it happily for 4 years, and it's never kept me awake.

I suppose I could have kept searching for the Holy Grail of pure rain CDs -- but as they say, "perfect is the enemy of good." I'd probably still be searching instead of enjoying this CD.

Rain with crickets and birds.......2006-07-03

As one reviewer said this rain CD has the sounds of crickets and birds towards the end. If you are looking for only the soothing sound of rain with no birds, crickets, thunder or other annoying things, I recommend "Sounds of the Earth: Rain in the Country". The "Rain in the Country" CD is a clear recording of a steady rainshower. It is so relaxing that I bought 3 copies of it just in case they ever stop selling it.
