Music Question

[NoMoreJuice!]

I have a Spotify playlist full of broadway songs that my kids are addicted to! Right now our favorite song is My Favorite Things. Close second is Maybe from the Annie soundtrack. I love the entire Hello Dolly soundtrack myself.

We listen to stuff I like, because it helps with my happiness too. They enjoy it. Grateful Dead, especially Aiko Aiko, Franklin's Tower and The Music Never Stopped. Bob Marley is popular here too, but I DO SKIP OVER I Shot the Sheriff. Lol. I tried some Spingsteen on them, but they didn't connect, so we skip that now. Nothing w bad lyrics or too heavy. I like it, they like it, everyone is happy.

"Kiddie Tunes" make me wanna gouge my eyes out. Fun to sing on our own, but recorded kiddie tunes......never again. Lol

One thing I like about Grateful Dead is that if you play the live stuff, they stretch those songs out a long, long time. A song might last 30 minutes with just beautiful music, and no lyrics to worry about.

I have a two year old girl--her dad plays/sings in a local rock band. Any Bob Marley song that comes on, she runs over to the docking station to look at the screen on my phone and says, "What is this song?" She already knows she likes his sound--I think that's pretty cool!

I have a Spotify playlist too. I mixed it up with kid songs, some of the popular (already checked lyrics) songs that the kids know/love, Beastie Boys instrumental, Grateful Dead, etc. It's a nice mix and my parents have actually really complimented me on it. One DCD overheard an 8 year old humming a Phish tune and he was thrilled! Yup... we have that, along with Frank Sinatra, Kids Bop, Neil Young, and anything else that you can think of! I think of it as exposure to all kinds of music, coupled with saving my sanity!

Yeah, a Help/Slip/Franklin's is an easy half hour. Twiiiiirrrrrlllll. I only do live recordings. Lol. 52 shows. I ACTUALLY PLAY CASSETTES, my group definitely knows that cassettes mean music. Lol

Yes you do! Remember the video you sent me of the kids dancing to Sweet Home Alabama? I still have it. ::
