It's true, it may be the words and the melody that's catching his interest.
You could try recording him singing and playing it back for him.
Encourage this any way you can and call us when he's older. We'll take care of him (I'm serious)

Have you ever tried using 'em as buttplugs with the volume turned up all the way?
The music comes out of of your mouth & you can entertain guests at a party.
Nothing livens up the room like a true "human beat box".

I have showed his little youtube vid to him a few times now. He just sings along with it..

Yup Miles is def talented.

And a freakin' cutie too.

Hi Erin..I think it is absolutely wonderful that your child has a interest in music !! However, at his age I would tend to agree with others as far as headphones go..maybe a small cd player would be an option that he could listen to in his room and a decent volume level? I completely understand how they can get hung up on just one song and listen to it continously over and over ( been there, done that). But I definately would encourage his love of music

Awww...

Thanks.

Ya, I'm starting to wonder about the headphones now. I'm glad I asked about it.

We've got players in my room, the living room and his room. I'll just have to make multiple copies of those songs to put in all of them I guess. I am sure my neighbours are sick of hearing the same songs too. They are pretty bass and kick drum heavy.

You may have a little prodigy on your hands. I would read a lot to him and play a lot of rhyming games with him. When he's older have him draw to music and keep arecord of his creative writng.


And remember we've got that deal waiting for him at Magzmctazz records.

He likes his funk!

shellyevon said:

He also loves to be read to and I have been lucky enough to have been able to stay home with him and do all the things you mentioned but I am going back to work next month.

I'll have to make sure that my mom (who will be watching him) keeps it up while I am at work.

for the love of god, expose him to some REAL music though.

Sorry, EMO is banned from our house.

JustErin said:

I said REAL music.

jerseykrs said:

And I said your "REAL" music is not allowed in this house.

What are you? Hard of reading?

JustErin said:

I don't consider that real music!!

All joking aside, expose him to classical and real jazz music, just to see how he reacts to it. He may like the electronic shit because mom loves it.

jerseykrs said:

You should hear him when he goes "Daft Punk! Daft Punk!". He's too cute.

jerseykrs said:

I know. He loves all top 40 radio too.

Actually, right now we are listening to this:



which has all different types of music.

Oh and I am dead serious when I say this (I think I might have told you this before) melancholy classical music makes him cry. It's like he feels the sadness of the song

JustErin said:

you don't tell me anything anymore.

retina said:

But not nearly as cute as when he says "Hi Peter".

True. That just kills me.

JustErin said:

I say sure, why not?


My parents raised me on music and look how I turned out.

You know that every time you change your avatar I subconsciously think you've morphed into that person, right? And if someone keeps an avatar for long enough, I get convinced that they look like that at all times even though I should know better. For example, when jersey says something about taking his kids to the movies or whatever, I imagine him doing so bleeding from his face and wearing a friggin hockey helmet.

retina said:

So does that mean I'm little lego?

retina said:

OMG, I do that too!

I keep thinking that the picture of the hockey guy is actually Jerseykrs.

Imago said:

I think my early org popularity came from having a Bjork avatar forever. Bjork is hot.

CarrieMpls said:

Actually yes. Constantly wearing little headphones and squinting with your cute little eyes.
