My DS loves What that coming over the Hill is that a Monster by the Automatics. Now Top of the Pops has gone and I listen to Talk radio. I don't know any new stuff he might like. I love seeing him bop about and sing. Whats on your kids playlist? Must go now and do some housework!

I Predict a Riot by the Kaiser Chiefs, DOn't think Too Much by the Zutons and Alright by Supergrass are 3 that my DS likes.

'Dance,dance' and 'thanks for the memories'- fall out boy

'Take me out'- franz ferdinand

'Rock the casbah'- the clash

'Heatwave'-martha and the vandellas

Not really new though!

Twinkie1 · 10/06/2008 12:31

Ruby, Ruby, Ruby, Ruby (Kaiserchiefs I think!)

Rockstar (Nickelback)

Rheab (Amy Wino)

America (Have no idea)

Those are the 4 songs mine are obsessed with at the moment - over and over and over agin I have to listen to them - mind you not really appropriate listening for a 3 and 7 year old! (at least 2 of them!)

fullmoonfiend · 10/06/2008 12:34

my 7 year old is still obsessed with the macarena

And that awful ''oo ee oo ah ah'' Witchdoctore one

10-yr-old is more discerening and currently likes Fratellis, The Levellers, Linkin Park, Led Zep, Doors, The Kinks and Yellowcard.

DD also loves The Automatic. Other ones at the moment are:

Walcott - Vampire Weekend, fantastic for flat out bouncing
Perfect Gentleman - Wyclef Jean, great for summer hip shaking and grooving!

Marina · 10/06/2008 15:10

Alright - Supergrass
David Wainwright's Feet - Half Man, Half Biscuit

Ds likes Ben Folds Five, but he's 8 and not really little

He and dd both like Tales from Turnpike House (St Etienne), the Scissor Sisters (some strategic la-laaing over the occasional lyric might be necessary), Amadou & Mariam and Elbow Seldom Seen Kid, right now
De la Soul and Go! Team also popular

My older two are rather partial to Nirvana atm, and we have hours of fun in the car listening to the 3 year old's made up lyrics...

'Here we are now
in geraniums
are we troopers
and containers'

and so on...

9 yo is a bit of a muso and currently listening to Sufjan Stevens and his dad's collection of American New Folk... (Rachel someone or other...)

northernsoul · 10/06/2008 21:06

Smells like toddler spirit, i like it
My 5 year old loves 'Cant Stand Me Now' by The Libertines. He has been a loyal listener of that tune since he was 2
Also 'Shoot The Runner' Kasabian
My 3 yr old loves Johnny Cash especially 'Ring of Fire' and On Call by Kings of Leon.
Our stereo is hijacked daily

Thank you for the list so far.. I'm going over to youtube to look these up. If you know better music sites then I'm all ears.
before I go I must comment THE CLASH who doesn't like the Clash brillant.London's burning is FAB because WE LIVE BY THE RIVER He has old parents so he also likes Motorhead, Jam, Madness,of course. The Duellers a local band who tell him not to take drugs and brush his teeth twice a day. AND many more old bands and songs.
