When life's kicking your butt, how about a theme song? [4] Silliness!

Ally McBeal knew what she was doing with her baby dancing theme song, Hooked on a Feeling. Let's give it a shot. I think it's working because my kids are scolding me more than usual for all my singing and dancing. We all need to sing and dance a little more. 
So spring is here along with torrential rains and kids who refuse to wear their coats anymore. I think silliness is in order. I'm choosing Folding Chair by Regina Spektor. I love singing along to this song. Check out a few lines..."I've got a perfect body, but sometimes I forget. I've got a perfect body 'cause my eyelashes catch my sweat. Yes they do. They do-oo-ooo...." I love that!
Do you have any songs that pull you into silliness? I'd love to check them out, sing along, maybe do a weak thumbs at my hips dance in the kitchen while I cook. I hope you all have a fantastic April! Here are my mom and sister's silly songs.
Mushaboom by Feist is one of my favorites, but I just saw the video for the first time. Totally oddball silly! So of course it's my sister's pick.
I accidentally listened to this song with John in the car. Maybe I forgot he was there, that was until I heard a little voice sing, "I don't care. I love it!" So of course this is my mom's pick!
DISCLAIMER!
(These are not my kids, but they have the exact same reaction to this song. They could be fighting and driving me crazy and then I put on Watermelon Meow Meow by The Imagination Movers and magic!)

You can find April's Youtube playlist link HERE!

  1. Robyn, I'm embarrassed to say that i haven't heard of any of these songs...but they are ALL quite silly! Sky and I have been laughing over them. Oh, she knew "I Love It" :) I have my kids working on their picks...they'll be up soon.

    1. If it weren't for the mix CDs my sister makes me, I wouldn't have heard of any of them (except for the kid song). They are silly, right? I can't wait to see what you guys pick!

  2. I just listed mine! I'm going to have to come listen to your silly songs as my background music at work tomorrow. Do you have a youtube link for the playlist?

    1. I just checked out your post. Awesome!! I love Mary Poppins. I have it on DVD. I even recorded a few of the songs on our roadtrip CDs. Oh, I just added the youtube link at the bottom of the post. Sorry about that. I hope the songs add a pep to your step at work tomorrow!

  3. This is so great!! Jack sings, "I care, I don't love it." You know, just to be contrary, lol. They played that song for commercials for Snooki & JWow's show on MTV, and I'd have that stuck in my head for days. Always makes me smile. :) I love you heard a little voice singing it! Too cute!! <3
