If we're talking actual children's songs, I would have to say 'Se min kjole' (see my dress), which is a song you'd sing in the nursery.

Then there Kaj & Andrea with 'Bakke Snagvendt', which were a frog and a parrot singing a song about talking backwards.

Of course, one shouldn't forget Bamse & Kylling, 'Regnsang'. This was a big, yellow teddie and a chicken the same size singing about the rain on the roof. Well, the chicken didn't really sing, it just let out some rather chicken-like noises here and there.

anything smashing pumpkins&radiohead
blur-parklife
rhcp-breakin the girl
nirvana-come as you are

these are the main ones for me that remind me of my older brothers and sisters.

rem-everybody hurts-this one especially because my big brother was away and my mam used to cry everytime she heard it because it reminded her of him and it was the first time that any of us had moved out.

Stevie Wonder - I Just Called To Say I Love You

Got to love Stevie!



yeah! i love it! and I love these song, but trust me sometimes I forgot everything! (except Travis,... mmm i get selective memory lol!)
I must remember a lot of songs and names... but for example Barry White, Richard Clayderman, Bee Gees, The Beatles and 70's music is the kind of music that I remember because my mom always heard it when I was child...
