Abby is my youngest. She'll be 9 on November 26th. She LOVES music and adores Meat. I've told the story many times how BOOH was the only thing on the planet that could sooth her as an infant. Well, she has very definite views of Meat's songs and I just can't keep them to myself, :lol:

Abby loves Clap Your Hands. The other day she told me "It's like The Hokey Pokey only it rocks."

Break It: "Doesn't he know that song is a bad influence on us kids? Good thing I know better than to break things!"

BOOH: "Most awesomest song in the universe!"

Alive: "That's Sissy's (Alyssa, my 14 year old) favorite song and it makes her smile"

There are so many I can't remember them all but those are some of my favorites.

She is like me and wants to know what the song means so she really listens to the songs. I don't know how many songs we've sat down and dissected until she knows what every line means. She takes pride in the fact she can tell people what the Latin means in Seize Then Night :D

I love how in the US they make them have a US flag backdrop! Cheesey but patriotic I guess!

She had about a dozen backgrounds to choose from. She chose that one herself.
