So one of my best friends told me that there's a bun in the oven and I want to make him a CD to congratulate him on it, but all I can think of is Bowie's Kooks and CSNY's Teach Your Children (which I don't like). What songs am I missing out on?

talulah gosh - bringing up baby

You should also look into records containing songs for children in the womb-- there's a french one that is all heartbeats and pretty well-recorded ethno (indian/african/iranian) music.

but also, i think that the Low cover of Tom T. Hall's "...i love" is a pretty sweet song for baby.
