Ridiculous Baby-tastic Crowd-sourcing

Apr 30, 2015 14:08

Soooo, I'm about to be an auntie. I'm so excited! My cousin has requested that I DJ her labor (date tbd), either virtually or in person. While I have a few songs already picked out, "Push It" by Salt 'n' Pepa was first on the list, I would loooove any suggestions you might have. You all are really brilliant with vid songs, and well, this is sort of like a live vid. Or at least that's how I'm figuring out how to pick out songs while someone heroically releases a (not!kraken) baby into the world.

I am building two playlists: one of mellow-ish music and another of more intense-aerobics-playlist type music.

She enjoys the juxtaposition of symbolic music lyrics applied more literally to labor, so I have been digging through various options including the words "baby" or "push" etc.

It's OK if it's music she or I don't know. The goal is 75% familiar and 25% new (to keep things fresh).

It's also OK if this is a ridiculous subject to crowd-source, but the due date is coming up soon and I figured I'd give it a shot. You have no idea how many birthing playlists posted online are all Jesus-centric. Or full of shitty music. Like... let's not play "Crash" by Dave Matthews. Let's not.

family, music
