I love it! My nephew has always loved Jimi Hendrix and AC/DC. Spending time with him is about the only time I get to listen to Hendrix.

ok so its nice to know we're not the only family who listens to our regular people music in addition to the kid stuff! My DH loves the Cramps and there is this song about monkeys that he & DS kind of sing together...its too cute (but there are lots of innuendos I'm sure I'll be explaining at some point in his lifetime... )

Elizabeth Mitchell, Kimya Dawson, and The Poopsmith Song by Over the Rhine.

I just need to say thanks for the Elizabeth Mitchell suggestions! Wow! I sampled almost all of one cd on amazon and loved it! I think I'll do one of those and a Dan Zanes for my boys for stockings.

And yeah re the adult music....I had to cut off the Rage Against the Machine ds was obsessed with after we had a particularly difficult day and he requested one of their cds and he's screaming "singing" to "F...You I'll do want I want to..." Um yeah Luckily it was a little too incoherrant for him to actually get the words, yikes! But Black Sabbath seems pretty innocent, Fairies wear boots and all that.
