Sophie is well into the age where I must be careful with what we listen to in the car. When she was younger, rocking out to my usual music was totally okay....or at least I thought it was okay. But then she started to understand and even started to sing words to songs. Last summer, about the time Sophie started running around singing, "I'm bringing sexy back!" I knew it was about that time to change the station!!! Even though I thought it was totally hilarious and would occasionally, to people I knew wouldn't judge me, made her sing the catchy Timberlake tune.
Anyway, I now listen to KidStuff on Sirius radio everytime the kids are in the car and, without fail, these tunes keep getting in my head. So much so that I often catch myself humming to myself, casually throwing in a verse or two....sometimes I might flat out sing it outloud, not realizing I'm singing, "Ooh, aah, I've got a pain in my tummy!" Really? Did I just say that?
I must say I did become a fan of Jack Johnson, thanks to listening to KidStuff. His songs make me feel like I'm not listening to children's music (he did the Curious George soundtrack and the rest of his cds are good and for adults); but unfortunately, I never get these songs stuck in my head! Instead, I end up reciting the Wiggles....they have some catchy tunes!!!

Ohhh, I feel your pain. I am not at the turn the station stage yet, but I see it coming. Because mommy likes rap, and hip hop... Naomi likes to dance to it. I had it on the other day and Naomi looked at me and said "dance?" and I said "yep, that's right... show me what you're working with!" I think I am in big trouble when she repeats some of those lyrics!
Ok...I have no clue who these people are that you are talking about, Jack who? It makes me sad to think that it will happen to me sooner than later.
