New (childrens) song

My son (5 months old, Sep 2005) is to become a pro musician like his father. “His father is what? Pro? Mohahahaha”. OK, maybe not “pro” but atleast some sort of hobby musician. I don’t want to pressure him of course, but my plan is to introduce music and music making gradually over the course of his upbringing. Now that I’ve written this, he’s not going to become a musician at all. I’ve jinxed it. Oh well. I’ll love him just as much. :)

Anyway, a childrens song (”Videvisan”) got stuck in my head a couple of days ago, and for the life of me, I couldn’t get rid of it. What to do? Make a cover of it. The result can be heard here: Videvisan (4.5MB). The original is (as far as I know) composed by Alice Tegnér and the lyrics are written by Zacharias Topelius (spelling?).

Enjoy!
