Something Sweet was reviewed on Singing in the Bathtub.

Nina Zeitlin, has a smokey, soulful voice... [T]he album definitely stretches the concept of what kids' music can be. As a trained jazz arranger I found Something Sweet to be surprising and unexpected at times which is rare for the typical 3-chord sing-along fare of most kids music. The lyrics that compliment this progressive music are imaginative and sometimes silly... It's nice to hear a group that has a different slant on the concept of kids' music... Something Sweet could quite possibly be the most unique album I have reviewed...

Something Sweet got an awesome review on NuggetIsland.com.

It is easy to appreciate a band that genre jumps, and does it with such ease. And throughout, King Pajama never feels the need to down-age their music and lyrics and scare off adult listeners. -Matthew Siden, Nugget Island.com

Something Sweet got an AMAZING review on ArtOfIrreverence.com.

I mean, I could say “Hey, this is awesome—you should buy it,” but that’s not saying nearly enough... These unique songs owe their success to three factors: strong, piano-centered instrumentation; Nina Zeitlin’s rich and melodically-complex vocals; and lyrics that put a surprisingly fun spin on ordinary topics like food and clothing. Each of the ten tracks on the 30-minute album is consistently engaging and worthy of repeated listening. -Amy Graves, ArtofIrreverence.com

[K]ids' music with a real unique sound... The songs are very hip (you kind of want to snap your fingers along to the beat), the piano is classically cool, and Nina Zeitlin’s voice is rich and smokey. -BostonChildrensMusic.com

Something Sweet was reviewed by kids' music blog OutWithTheKids.com.

Something Sweet is just that, a sweet, surprising and utterly pleasant album from start to finish. There's no reason you couldn't leave this disc spinning long after your kids have been deposited at school or after they've drifted off to sleep. ...I can't stop playing their CD. I love it and my girls love dancing to it.

-Jeff Bogle, OutWithTheKids.com
