There was the Mamas and the Papas, Abba, Pink Floyd, classical, and, his favorite, Fleetwood Mac. Music is hugely important here too. (although NPR is always vying for my attention too).Fairly Odd Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11974404093257620566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-67715770020050773242007-10-18T01:52:00.000-07:002007-10-18T01:52:00.000-07:00I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE music.

My dad always used to play Abba and Kenny Rogers and the Beach Boys, and now that music is so special to me. <BR/><BR/>I bought the Abba greatest hits CD a little while ago and now my little kids love to dance around to "Dancing Queen." And I love it.

Whatever you need, really. <BR/><BR/>I use music when I run, and I find it makes a huge difference to how well I do.<BR/><BR/>I, too, should be playing more music for myself and my children, thanks for reminding me. <BR/><BR/>Thanks also for the walk down memory lane. Your dad was cool!! :)Family Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00093360285075029799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-41676420590186742872007-10-16T02:42:00.000-07:002007-10-16T02:42:00.000-07:00I understand the NPR obsession.

Often my husband is listening to XM CrossCountry in the living room and each child is listening to something different in their rooms and it all floats out to the hall mingling in a short of musical cat fight. Sometimes I just don't want to hear ANYTHING these days! We also listened to music and sang along as kids - my younger sister could be on - what is it - Singing Bee(?) because she knows the words to practically everything! Jazz, hip-hop, country, she sings it all.Mary Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08923591889426758103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-55442068144840349552007-10-15T21:07:00.000-07:002007-10-15T21:07:00.000-07:00I think our souls get a little lighter when we lis...I think our souls get a little lighter when we listen to music that makes us feel good. I don't think it matters what kind.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02086167716210736774noreply@blogger.com
