John's Musical Taste


Right now, our John enjoys the classic stylings of Beethoven and Mozart. It seems that all his baby toys have classical compositions as the music. He love Beethoven's Fur Elise. I have to sit there and sing it to him to calm him down. There aren't any words to it, but I just have to mimic the sounds of the notes with "doos". For example:
Doo doo doo doo doo dooooo
Dooo dooo dooo
Doo doo doo



It always calms him down. I finally broke down and bought it on Itunes, but I fear he likes my rendition better. I may just have to purchase a piano and learn to play it or John will learn to play it when he takes piano lessons.
While on the Itunes site, I also purchased Henry Mancini's Baby Elephant Walk. Every small child loves it. We learned this back when Cousin Alexis aka Kievy was a little toddler. She'd stop by my room and start dancing to it. So, let's hope he's like his cousin and enjoys it. If not, I've just wasted $0.99.

Well, thanks for the shout-out

My memories of being a toddler are, let's just say, less than clear, but the more I listen to the song, the more familiar it sounds.

I can, for some reason, picture Ana Margarita spazzing out to this song, though
