Do you know what I hate? Children's music.
Yes, there are few good albums -- Keb Mo's, TMBG's. I actually quite like Jack Johnson's soundtrack to Curious George. But any attempt to set up a Pandora station for the boy devolves into the endless series of strident kindergarten teachers singing mini lectures about saying please and washing behind your ears. I am sure that no child on the planet wants to hear this. Why do such songs exist? Is it parents thinking that their kids need propaganda at every turn?
If I could halfway play and sign I'd put out an album called "Get dirty, be rude, and misbehave" in the style of AC/DC. It would be terrible for kids but at least I could stand to hear it.
