Those of you with little ones may or may not watch NOGGIN from time to time. If you do, then you have probably seen Laurie Berkner singing and dancing between the shows. Now my kids love music, and they love singing and dancing, so when Laurie pops up on our screen they are both on their feet twirling circles and singing. (The older one sings - the little man just twirls circles and smiles). Far be it from me to interrupt anything that holds my kids' attention away from trouble, but the true evil of these songs are the way they get embedded into my brain. Just a few lines of one of these songs and I'm singing it for the rest of the day. Like I have nothing better to do with my brain cells than to memorize annoying children's songs.
Oh why did I ever allow such a thing into my house? Then again, I have allowed The Wiggles in, so my standards are pretty low.
LOL. There's simply no escape. When my oldest was little, there was this show on called "KidSongs." From that, he learned the words to "Wild Blue Yonder" and proceeded to sing it to ANYONE who dared to listen ... or look his direction.
You can't win. ;)

Hey there first time visitor cruising through on blog explosion. No blogger account so I have to post as anonymous. My kids also love Laurie and can I just say,"Victor Vido and Freddie Vascoe ate a burrito with tabasco, they put it on their rice...." Oh and have you heard the Danny Zane songs yet? "All around the kitchen, cock-a-doddle doddle do". I turned to my hubby the other night and asked him to please turn off the voices in my head. ;-)
Thanks for making me laugh. Kristin S http://www.amommysdaze.com

You might be wishing for the Wiggles, soon! (This from a mom who doesn't like Berkner all that much, but who bought tickets *first thing* when the Wiggles came to town).

I'm late to the party on this one, but found your site whilst surfing around and had to comment. I thought I was the only one. noggin is on at my house all day (and I thank god for it, too). But that Laurie...
"Victor Vito and Freddie Vasco"...oy vey.
But she's awesome compared to that Dan Zanes guy - he looks like a frustrated would-be hipster from Greenwich Village who wasn't able to crack the big time. And his fricken songs get in your head like a vicious earworm.
Sometimes I ponder: I used to bring in a 6-figure salary, now my days are filled with "Victor Vito" and "We are the Dinosaurs". How the mighty have fallen!
Loved your site, by the way.
