Unless you want her to be a drug addict, I don't suggest any Psyc. music at her age.

She might like some indie-rock type bands.

Heartwarmer
The Arcade Fire

think six year olds guys... this girl got out of diapers not to long ago.

Things like john mayer and such are good because they are very musical and will cater to the childs needs to develope characteristics of rythm. Coordination links to this part of the brain. a good combination of slow, up-beat, and other types of music are essential. (and also tasteful) Let her listen to John william (great composer) as she sleeps. It will enhance her creativity and imagination. Peace.....

I loved John Williams when I was around that age (Star Wars soundtrack, obviously) but if someone had spoon-fed me crap like John Mayer I could have turned out as a TOOL. I'm glad I grew up listening to Smashing Pumpkins, RHCP, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc. 90's alternative radio was a good thing to grow up on...

^your such a nerd.

But if you want your child to turn out to be a bit of a whore feed her stuff like Britney Spears
Christina Agularia(sp),
Aqua (barbie girl) lyrics lie " Make me walk, make me talk, do whatever you please I can act like a star, I can beg on my knees" is pure magic for a young child developments.
N*SYNC is also very good for a child

Ok, that's my knowledge on pop music from when I was little.

speaking of age, my age is 34, i'm supposed to be the cool-music-uncle-dude,

i would like to add paul simon graceland.

of course i will listen to all of the cd's before i decide to plug them into her little brain.

one day when she was about 4, we were at our dad's for christmas, he had new-agey soft music on, she hugged the speaker and said "this music is gorgeous"

she does like the hip-hoppy bounce around music like her mother, michael jackson thriller??

brandon24 · 04-25-2007, 11:14 PM

which reminds me, this past xmas i was putting up some lights with her brother outside, i was playing led zeppelin, she was definately rocking to it.

good call, i won't spoon feed her john mayer unless of course she likes it.

Frontline Assembly, KMFDM, VNV Nation, Pig, Schwein, Nitzer Ebb, Mortuary Hacking Session, Gigantic Brain, The Number 12 Looks Like You, Genghis Tron, Kylesa, Baroness, Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Closer Than Kin, Network Network, Dio, Black Sabbath, Iron And Wine, Bee & Flower, Jim Croce, Jeff Buckley, Anal ****, Bobby Fuller Four, Thelonius Monk, Chick Webb, River Bottom Nightmare...stuff. There should be a fair variety in there which should help her tastes expand.
