Thank you for your cooperation. <vbg>

I took my girls on a campout this weekend. The CD cued up in the car CD player on the way there and back was what I call "The Lost1 Compilation: Volume 1". It includes 20 or so tracks all downloaded off of this or other SI threads from the Lost1 computer files.....and put in random order.

The CD is the kids' current favorite, and include "In These Shoes" (which they love), "Hallelujah" (which my 6 yr old son and 8 yr old daughter keep asking to hear again), and "Dear God" (which has prompted a lot of good discussions about whether it is ok to doubt God and wonder about why bad things happen in the world if He is its Creator). I don't have the whole playlist with me, but the CD is a phenomenal mixture of genres and artists....great from beginning to end. I'll try to post a playlist later.

I think when making CD's for the kids, it's better to go the route of introducing them to sounds they haven't heard but may like rather than simply giving them stuff because their friends listen to it, even if it's crap. My wife disagrees. But she's wrong. <g>

I once met a man with a sense of adventure
He was dressed to thrill wherever he went
He said "Let's make love on a mountain top
Under the stars on a big hard rock"
I said "In these shoes?
I don't think so"
I said "Honey, let's do it here."
So I'm sitting at a bar in Guadalajara
In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes
He said "I've got as powerful horse outside
Climb on the back, I'll take you for a ride
I know a little place, we can get there for the break of day."
I said "In these shoes?
No way, Jose"
I said "Honey, let's stay right here."

No le gusta caminar. No puede montar a caballo
(He doesn't like to walk, he can't ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? Es un escandolo
(How do you dance to it? It's scandalous)

Then I met an Englishman
"Oh" he said
"Won't you walk up and down my spine,
It makes me feel strangely alive."
I said "In these shoes?
I doubt you'd survive."
I said "Honey, let's do it.
Let's stay right here."
