I'm guessing in the next 10 years or so, FB's fan base will have more than doubled based on his diehard fans passing the Legend's music on to their offspring. I'm so proud.

Actually, it came out last week.

I actually dig : "Songs to Grow on for Mother and Child" by Woody Guthrie. the reviews on amazon are pretty close to the mark
the youngun's in my house like the pizzicato five (jappop) almost more than anything else...that and girl bands...somehow they can tell the girlbands (the cool ones, thanks) apart and dig them more than most stuff I play!
we're BIG on music in the car and that music is COOL music...not yanni. some sesame street thrown in for fun (i dig it) but mostly my regular iPod mix... |

My 3 year old neice loves Sugar Bee by Canned Heat, she likes to boggie on down to it.

Bad news: This morning, the sitter played for my 3-year-old a hideous song that goes "I am a Barbie girl living in a Barbie world" by some band she said was Canadian, and my kid liked it. Arrrghghg. It had a boom boom stadium-rock sound mixed with a sugar-pop groove and every word in the lyrics was a naughty double-entendre. I tell you, only Frank will do to deprogram my wee one from this pap!

Past that it just can't hold his attention.

That song is by Aqua, and I think they're from somewhere in Europe, not Canada. Unless that version was a cover, but who in their right mind would cover that song? It was a hit in the States about six or seven years ago.

You HAVE to admit, kathryn, that that is worse than the Wiggles!

Right you are, Calistanian, they're so much worse than the Wiggles!
Thank you for setting the record straight, HMP and VoVat. It's a relief to learn that they are not Canadian, thereby proving true my belief that all good things come from Canada.

I forgot to mention my neice loves Jonathan Richman as well, great for adults and kids, The Wheels On The Bus, I'm A Little Airplane, Ice Cream Man, Hey There Little Insect, all great tunes! I don't think she'd be into Hospital as much though.

Jonathan Richman's a great suggestion! I should have thought of that. Thanks.

But that doesn't mean bad things can't also come from Canada, right?

I am not going to jeopardize my upcoming Canadian citizenship by maligning anything Canadian, not even that trashy wanna-be punk.

fantastic thread! our little girl will be two months on the 7th and it's time for daddy to expand the baby lullabye collection. week 1 i compiled a lullabye fb/pixies/breeders mix that she/dad/mom can't get enough of but want to make sure she get's a nice balance. lovely suggestions. pie in the sky is great to sing and dance along to.
"stomp your feet and clap your hands get out of your seat and do a little dance"
this totally outclasses the bird dance. and then on a side note we received a baby present today- the barnyard dance. 1st page- no lie.
"stomp your feet! clap your hands! everybody ready for a barnyard dance!"
that made me chuckle.

Maybe someone should start a "Frank ripped off the Barnyard Dance!" thread.

For the Mix CDs, one song in particular stands out:
If you want to lure anyone to sleep, the song "Pink Frosty" bu Fugazi is highly reccomended. From End Hits.
In that song, it sounds as though, Joe Lally, Ian Mackaye, Guy Piccioto, and Brendan (forgot his last name) are recordng it while sleeping.
Don't play them "f/d", though, which is track 13 on the album. That's why I specifically said "for the mix CDs"
I don't really know about they might be giants. I haven't heard "no" or "here come the ABCs", but I've heard a lot of "FLood" and I don't remember liking it much.................maybe I'll have to hear it again.
