Can't touch this. Da, da, da, da... da, da... da, da...

And I don't want to even think about how many times I had to endure Vanilla Ice.

I lucked out. My firstborn preferred headphones, and when he DID have music on, he was trying out classic rock stuff (must have heard it in utero <g> ). Our daughter, on the other hand, has been into Eminem (yech on soooo many counts) but also the Brittany/Avril/Beyonce type.

Lately, however, she has found country music - which her father HATES but I don't mind. We can really freak him out singing together to "Beer for My Horses" or "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem." Heh heh heh.

Actually I grew up listening to Bill Knowlton's Bluegrass Ramble on Sunday nights; it was the real thing, old-timey, with fiddles, high keening voices, and clog dancing (on the radio, no less.) Today's country is so much more "pop" than it used to be. But I'm still a child of the 60s, at least the, uh, rock-n-roll. Love it.
