The "Songs you'll pass on to your kids" Edition

Happy Friday!

Growing up, i envied kids that had parents who allowed them to rummage through their record collections. My parents were never musically inclined. So i always thought that when the time came, my child will have her/his room walls covered with record sleeves.

And within that wallpaper, you may be able to find some of these songs:


Ella Fitzgerald "Give me the simple life"

anything ella really... i want kid to think she's grandma


David Bowie "Rebel, Rebel"(live)

The experiment with makeup stage (applies to both girls and boys)


Curtis Mayfield "Move on up" (live)

When they feel the blues


Nsync "I'll be good for you"

yes junior, pop was big growing up in the 90s and that was assisted by this unit called a boyband...


Of course there's also electronic, portishead/EBTG, the entire MJ discography...

What songs will you pass on to your kids?
