I Let the Music Speak
I am happy to report that Sandie, David, and baby Dane received the Baby’s First Mix CD I compiled for the lil’ superstar! Boy, was it difficult to find fun/baby/child-themed songs with no explicit lyrics or mentions of drugs and violence. Whew. Er, is this when someone’s going to tell me Jordy is a Communist?
TOO CUTE FOR WORDS!
If you can handle the cuteness, check out these other photos of Dane tasting the CD.

1. The Cars - Looking for Love
2. Franz Ferdinand - This Boy
3. Supremes - Baby Love

Happy rocking, baby Dane!
Preliminary tracks that were, unfortunately, cut from the ultimate playlist due to time restraints and inappropriate lyrics/themes: The Ramones, “The KKK Took My Baby Away”; Nancy Sinatra, “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”; The Sparks, “Eaten by the Monster of Love”; Yo La Tengo, “How to Make a Baby Elephant Float”; Rachel Sweet, “Baby Let’s Play House”; Neil Young, “Come On Baby Let’s Go Downtown”; “The Beatles, “Baby You’re a Rich Man”; The Smiths, “You Just Haven’t Earned It Yet, Baby”; Guns n’ Roses, “Sweet Child O’ Mine”; and Donna Summer, “Love to Love You Baby.”
Because baby Dane should NOT be doing what Donna Summer was doing when she recorded that song (listen HERE). INAPPROPRIATE! *
* If only I could find Donna Summer’s hilarious and endearing quote clarifying what was actually happening during the recording of this song. Sigh.

Aww… my poor little girlie-boy.
Dane is a boy!

Girlie-boy, hahaha. Well, I think Dane looks all man. But don’t worry, David Bowie and others employed androgyny for very successful careers.
Maybe “A little mascara, some blush?” (Sandie, you’d better know what movie this is from).

That, of course, is from the brilliant film (yes I said film) Gone in Sixty Seconds!!! Other memorable one-liners include, “He’s got street cred.”

Hells yes! I would even go as far as to call it a “motion picture.” Some of my other favorite scenes in GI60S include:
1) Nic Cage having a hand spasm uttering “Let’s go!”
2) The weird continuity re: Angelina Jolie’s braided/unbraided hair in that one scene.
3) “The ladies are dirty. Walk away! The ladies are dirty!”

THE LADIES ARE DIRTY!
I forgot about that one! A true classic.
