Lullaby

Aug 8, 2003

Ever since Anna arrived, I’ve calmed her and put her to sleep by humming a medley of the tune from Mo’ Better Blues (hear a clip here) and the theme from Chariots of Fire (hear a clip here). With another child on the way, I figure it’s not too early to find a tune or two for my next lullaby. Have any suggestions? What’s worked for you? I need something I can hum, something that will soothe a baby, and something that will make me sound good to other parents. Post your suggestions in the comments, please.
