The two then discussed My Favorite Dream, with Luna displaying her journalism talent and her father sharing some previously unknown details about the album.
When talking about his favorite songs on the record, Legend singled out “Always Come Back.”
I wrote it for you guys,” Legend said. “And I have to travel a lot for work, mommy has to go away for work sometimes, but we’ve always been telling you since you were a little baby that mommy and daddy always come back.”
Luna then shared her own favorites, saying she likes the most “Always Come Back,” “L-O-V-E” and Legend’s rendition of Bob Marley and the Wailers’ 1977 hit “Three Little Birds.”
“Those are the ones that I drew,” said Luna, referencing the fact that she drew the covers for these three songs when they were released as singles.

]]>Written by Legend and produced by Sufjan Stevens, My Favorite Dream marks Legend’s first entry into children’s music. The cover features a childhood photo of the singer, while the tracklist includes a combination of covers and original songs, that Legend wrote with a goal to create new lullabies that could become classics.
“I sat at a piano and started making a list of topics and subjects I wanted to talk about, all things I talk to my kids about and messages to inspire them, comfort them, and encourage them to go to sleep. So those were the thought-starters for the songs, and I’d sit and write,” he told Vogue.
Legend has been married to Chrissy Teigen for over a decade, and they have four children together – Luna, 8, Miles, 6, Esti, 20 months, and Wren, 15 months. His latest album has been a family affair, and he even convinced Teigen, Luna, and Miles to join him on the lead single “L-O-V-E”.

Legend later uploaded a photo of the family on Instagram and wrote about how “honored” he is to be able to support the organization.
Legend later had a chat with PEOPLE magazine and went into detail about his decision to include his kids in his volunteering projects.
“We try to teach them that it’s important to give back and to help other people,” said Legend. “They’ve gone with us to help feed people who are hungry, they’ve gone to homeless shelters with us. We try to teach them to be appreciative of what they have and also know that there are a lot of people that don’t have the privileges that they do, so we should do what we can to help them.”
