I'm wanting to make a cd of songs that are fun to sing with, old or new rock and roll, upbeat country, honky tonk, anything upbeat and happy, to listen to with my grandbaby. I got the idea while listening to a sing a long dvd I got for her, a couple of the songs are rewords of "real" songs, like When the Saints Go Marching In, and the aerobics workout favorite, M I C K E Y Hey Mickie. The songs that came to mind are stuff like Jeremiah Was A Bullfrog, and Your Daddy Don't Rock and Roll, a couple others I can't think of right now cause it's too late and too much wine.

So give me your ideas, I'll be back later, gotta turn in now, even though I don't have to work tomorrow, I mean today!

This is what I have in mind. If she was a boy I'd worry about YMCA though!

Songs that when you hear em on the radio you can't help singing with, that make you wanna dance. We'll be getting enough kiddie stuff, I'm wanting real music here. Rock and roll we grew up with, stuff like that. Any more sugestions folks?

Think ...

sing along

upbeat

baby in the room.

Don't think talk dirty to me would be quite appropriate! The rest are up for consideration!

How about some of the old Roger Miller songs?

England Swings (Like a Pendulum do)

Can't Rollerskate in a Buffalo Herd

Engine, Engine #9

Kansas City Star

And about a jillion or so more that I can't think of right now.

You've got the right idea, they're going on the consideration list.

I thought of Rollin' on the River and Black Water, Doobie Brothers opens a whole nother can of worms, lots of good ones there.

I love to have sing alongs while at karaoke!! T.V. theme songs are great for that.

We're the Monkees

Gilligans Island

Beverly Hillbillies

Just to name a few. Everyone seems to like the old T.V. theme songs

Really don't care about everyone, just to entertain me and the grandbaby. Those are some good thoughts.

I am no expert when it comes to little kids, but I myself love the songs from "The Wizard of Oz", for instance... Maybe your grandbaby would enjoy them too.

I'm not really looking for kiddie songs, I can buy those all day long. Stuff that I know and like that would be fun for her too. She laughs when I sing to her. Don't know if I should feel flattered or not, but I just love it! Our favorite kiddie song is No more monkees jumping on the bed! I bounce her up and down on the bed when I'm changing her and sing, well really chant, it to her!
