Aw...that's so sweet, Joe!
I have three boys and they would never have given FOW a second listen until
"Stacey's Mom" now I can't get it off the car stereo! Usually they're
listening to Busted, Linkin Park, Smashmouth etc *sigh*
>>Not quite the same, but a couple of years ago at Christmas, I put
together a CD for my three daughters (now 19, 21 and 23). Called
"Defining Dad: A Love Note in Cool Tunes", I used some of my favorite
songs to illuminate how I feel about life, about them, etc... I made a
fully (Illustrator) illustrated booklet with lyrics and story-type liner
notes for each song. Some of the Audities' favorites that made the CD:
Jason Falkner, Big Star, Jellyfish, WonderMints, XTC, Nilsson, Beatles,
etc.
I must have done a decent job with it because all three tell me they
still listen to and cherish that gift.
