Lists seem to be all the rage on Facebook. Here's one I started working on before the current fad, but never really knew what to do with.
What songs would you play to your unborn child in the womb? For the purposes of this exercise, don't worry about whether you actually want kids.
Here are my selections (all except the Beatles are available on iTunes):
Sara Groves-Generations
Beatles-Dear Prudence
Joni Mitchell-Shine
U2-Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
Enya-O Come O Come Emmanuel
Sarah McLachlan-Wait
Paula Cole-Comin' Down
RENT Soundtrack-Seasons of Love
The rules for Desert Island Discs limit the selections to eight, but if we allow two more, here are mine:
Amy Grant-Thy Word
Genesis-Firth of Fifth (risking premature labor being induced by what was once the deepest bass note in recorded music)
And if we allow a dozen:
Peter Gabriel-Downside Up
Yes-And You and I
