We were listening to music in the kitchen while I prepared lunch. I gave a very emotional, heart-felt performance of AIWTDIR when it came on.

"Mommy, you're cwazy."
"This is a boy's song. It's too cwazy for me."
"I want a girl's song. I wanna do ballet."

So, apparently, it is a crazy boy's song, not suitable for ballet dancing.
She was, however, quite taken with The Distance.

My pre-teen son just asked to have Closer in his phone. His taste of music is pretty much defined by Guitar Hero World Tour at the moment (La Bamba, anyone?), so I'm delighted to send some decent stuff his way.
We have a family joke to change lyrics to any suitable song and this morning I heard him singing "toaster, toaster" to the tune of Closer as he was getting the toaster out of the cupboard.

My 5-year-old son was singing Closer yesterday. I didn't realize the lyrics were, "Closer, closer, meeee-ow, mee-ow, meeee-ow, mee-ow." He's one cool cat.
