Bumble's Playlist

I've made a little playlist to play during the day. I usually sing along with these songs and it's my usual mis-match of songs, but I hope Bumble enjoys them. Seems to by the amount of movement I get. Of course, I could totally be misreading the signs and Bumble is actually "O my God would please stop!!!!", but I will think not for now. Here's my little playlist:

1. Baby I Love You - The Ramones (I've actually sung this to Bumble since we found out I was pregnant, so....before Bumble even had ears)

2. Here, There and Everywhere- The Beatles

3. Love Me Tender- Elvis

4. Over the Rainbow- Judy Garland

5. Real Love- The Beatles

6. Heartbeats- Jose Gonzalez

7. Baby Mine- Bette Middler (I wish I could just find the version they played in Dumbo, but no luck. Ah well....)

8. Love Is Like A Butterfly- Dolly Parton

9. Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles

10. The Rainbow Connection- Kermit the Frog

11. That's How Strong My Love Is- Otis Redding

12. Tonight You Belong to Me- Folk Uke

13. Clementine- Pink Martini

14. Hang On Little Tomato- Pink Martini (This was also one of my songs during those shaky first 12 weeks of pregnancy)

15. I'm Only Sleeping- The Beatles

16. And It Stoned Me- Van Morrison

17. Across the Universe- The Beatles

18. Farewell and Goodnight- Smashing Pumpkins

There are some other songs I really wanted to add, but they have somehow disappeared from my Itunes, which is quite worrisome. I can't decide if I want to take this playlist to have during labor, if I should make a whole nuther playlist for labor with songs that "pump me up", if you will. But those songs are very cheesy, like, "You're the Best Around" from the Karate Kid. We shall see.....

Playlist

This is my current favorite playlist. I was in a situation yesterday where there were no buses running between my house and the train station so I made the 45 minute walk listening to this list, and it kept my spirits high, high, high.....

2. A Groovy Kind of Love by the Mindbenders

3. Crimson and Clover by Tommy James & The Shondells

4. Season of the Witch by Donovan

5. Bus Stop by The Hollies

6. Here Comes My Baby by the Tremeloes

7. Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes) by Edison Lighthouse

8. Dancing in the Moonlight by King Harvest

9. Rock Me Gently  by Andy Kim

12. Do You Wanna Dance? by The Beach Boys

*13. Different Drum by Linda Ronstadt & The Stone Ponies

*I listen to this one twice because I adore this song and usually sing along when I'm home alone....I just think it's AMAZZZZZZING.
