A while back I got a little cheap mp3 player in a drawing at a teacher conference. It's way too small (128 M) for my uses but seeing Babygoat begin to sing some songs from time to time inspired us to fill it with her favorite music. Here are some of her top requests...
Music from the Sesame Street canon is probably most popular, with the top choice being:
What's the Name of That Song. The original version is much better but I only have an mp3 of a later version.
1-2-3-4 is one of my favorite songs of late, discovered via a good feature at Entertainment Weekly on special guests on Sesame Street
Rubber Ducky is certainly a big hit in the tub
I Love Trash has led her to searching for Oscar in many trash cans she sees
Elmo's Song is only annoying the first 10,000 times
Sing After Me has her practicing melismatic singing from time to time.
Outside of Sesame Street, she likes
Moving Right Along (from The Muppet Movie) and Lolly Lolly Lolly Get Your Adverbs Here from Schoolhouse Rock, tho I suspect she thinks she's singing about lollypops. Other faves include Bicycle Race by Queen, Yellow Submarine by The Beatles, and This is Halloween from Nightmare Before Christmas. I was hoping she'd pick up on The Elements by Tom Lehrer but so far she's not into it. She does love Kitty Cat Dance, thankfully.Labels: music, video
