I like to karaoke like nobody’s business in the car. I’ve edited my playlist for when the boys are with me, but overall I listen to what I want while I still can — the boys will have an opinion soon.
Yesterday I gave Cade DJ duty. I slowly drifted through my radio presets until he yelled “That one!” Both boys have been pestering me relentlessly to play Ho Hey by the Lumineers. I can’t just play it once. I have to loop it at least five times before Grady is satisfied. At the end of each play, I hear a teeny “Again!” from the backseat. It’s too cute to ignore. Good thing I like that song. Or as much I can like a song that I hear 12 times a day.
So here, in all its glory, is Cade’s first playlist. He bypassed Fleetwood Mac and Duran Duran for the below. Hmmmm…what does that say about him as a kid? Or me as an influence? Better not think on that too much.
Alice in Chains
Taylor Swift
Aerosmith
Phillip Phillips
