Though, to be honest, "she'll dance to anything" :-) I am going to try to steer her away from the whole Barney/Teletubbies stuff.. yes, I'll make a music snob out of her!
My kid didn't start asking for CDs until she was ten so you've got a ways to go yet. I don't really try to steer my daughter's tastes too much. I guess she couldn't help but to be influenced by my tastes so that's a natural starting point and it wasn't long before she started picking up on things on her own.

Yeah, it's a pretty horrid recording but the music's good and that's what matters first and foremost.

Yeah, some old Iron Maiden sounds mixed in there. Me like
