"Your song" for your kids?

[littlebear]

Hi!

I know a lot of people have what they call "their song" for themselves, with a partner, or even friends.

My song for DS is smashmouth - I'm A Believer, because as a baby he could never take his eyes off shrek and it sums up how I feel about him too

I'd love to know what songs you have for your kids and why? (if there is a reason!)

Mine is "I've gotta feeling" Black Eyed Peas every time it cam on in the car he would stop crying and he would start again when it stopped. I had it on cd and on my iPhone for emergencies

"Two little boys" by Rolf Harris. I heard that song and I want my two boys to feel that way about each other when they are older. Also my DH is in Defence so it just adds a touch of poignancy to it.

I found out from my DH's dad about a year ago that this was the song DH's mum used to sing to him and his brother when they were small. Explains why he always gets tears in his eyes when he hears it as she passed away about 20 years ago.

DD's song is Shine, by Shannon . It was the first song on the radio when she was born and fit so well with how we felt for her. Tears me up even now.
DS' is Little Wonders by Rob Thomas. There was a lot going on around then and it helped me keep perspective and to love the little things

DS - he always loved anything by ministry or rammstein - and still does. he's my little metal head.. So any of that reminds me of him!

Dd1- I used to sing peggy sue by buddy holly to her as a baby. I changed the lyrics though to say "kelti coo, kelti coo, you're my love so sweet and true etc etc"

Dd2 - we sing pearl jam - even flow. But of course we change the lyrics to be "Eden glows... Fills our world with butterflies.."

Dd3 - nothing yet lol

I always sing 'Shameless' by Garth Brooks to my daughters. It just sums up how I feel about them and how much I love them.

I have a few definite songs for DD, but two main ones - Sweet Child of Mine by Guns'n'Roses and Elvis' Can't help Falling in Love. Both of which I used to sing to her as I'd sit feeding her, usually somewhere warm and sunny

[Charlotte91]

I love Amazing by Janelle. It reminds me of DD's emotional and hard pregnancy and her time in the NICU getting better. And how gorgeous and strong she is.

[*Sparklez*]

My song for all my kids is No Air by Jordan Sparks.. Fits perfectly

DD's song is Memories and Dust by Josh Pike. It was the only thing that she would settle to in the car.

DD1 has quite a few - At First Sight by The Stems http://www.youtube.com/user/baudmania#p/u/1/UtfmsQbBx6g Talk to me by Peaches and anything by the Prodigy (it puts her to sleep )

DD2- Little Ray of Sunshine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vdhm_8x1oms All the Pretty Horses by Music vs Physics (YouTubel)

For those who know me it would shock them to know that I've fallen in love with Katy Perry's Firework song, and it always make me well up because I think of DD. So I guess it's her song. What I wish for her in the future, plus the fact that we call her out little firecracker

[Glamourcide]

DD1's is 'Emily' by From First to Last (Youtube!). DD2... I'm not sure yet Probably something by Paramore, because her name is Hayley Nicole, and the singer from Paramore is Hayley Nichole
