The other night Wife and I went to a
birthday celebration for an old friend (as in long-time, not as in her
age). Anyway, it was a night of Karaoke
in one of those awesome private rooms so that you and your friends can totally
indulge and don’t have to share the Karaoke spotlight with anyone other than
your group. Brilliant!
So sitting with a friend, who I actually
have not seen since she became a mama two years ago, she pointed out that Total
Eclipse of the Heart by the much loved Bonnie Tyler, could ostensibly be a song
about parenting. Yes! Of course.
To prove this, I have recorded my own version of Total Eclipse of the
Heart. Wife, has kindly agreed to make
an appearance. She’s amazing. We both are.
You’ll be shocked that, despite our musical pasts, we now only sing at
home and in private Karaoke rooms.
Are there any other songs out there that could serve as a parenting metaphor? Share your submissions in the comments.

Your kids will so love this when they are older!
Definitely play it for them when they are getting married. :-)
LOVE the video!
My 7 year old thought G Love's song "Baby's got sauce" with the line "My baby's got sauce, your baby ain't sweet like mine" was about a braggy, rude mother who was insulting another mom's baby.
