Video Fun: The Evolution of Music (twinkle, twinkle edition)

Parents everwhere struggle with listening to that old child-friendly music over and over, trying to find ways to stop going mad.

Maybe it’s not the song that’s the problem, but the way that it’s presented that’s the issue.  Maybe if you were able to take one of those ever-popular children’s songs that you absolutely couldn’t hear one more time, and heard what it would sound like when done in the style of the music of your generation (whatever generation you are from, that is).
