My kids are cooler than yours
To get my six- and four-year-old daughters to eat their dinner tonight I had to promise to play them the Bootsy Collins CD What’s Bootsy Doin’? – they’ve been fans since seeing Standing in the Shadows of Motown. After that it had to be “I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus”. I thought they wanted the John Prine version, but no – they wanted the Ronettes. Then, at bath time, they wanted “Po-Jama People” from Frank Zappa’s One Size Fits All.
At least they’ve got over Nick Cave. The Lyre of Orpheus is great but has been on heavy rotate for far too long.

Just after reading this post I went upstairs and found my four year old dancing in the lounge while the Wiggles sang 'Eagle Rock.'
That might seem to prove your headline right, but she also hums along to Chills songs ('Come Home' being a particular favourite).
