Hungry for more? Try these dishes. The culinary heritage of Italy provides ample inspiration for arch-parodist "Weird Al" Yankovic, who reworks the Ritchie Valens '50s classic "La Bamba" into "Lasagne." Pasta also fuels the hillbilly sensibility of Jane Baxter Miller, who reworks "On Top of Old Smokey" into "On Top of Spaghetti."

Although you must be almost full by now, here's another course of foodie favorites, including the joyously excessive "Pizza, Pizza, Pizza" from Hi-5 and the healthful "Apples and Bananas" by Barney. Don't forget to stop by "The Pretzel Store" where Laurie Berkner sings of pretzels that turned into rainbow fish and swam away. Weird.

what
The belief that children won't enjoy good music is completely unfounded.
I don't think there's any reason children shouldn't listen to good music, so long as it isn't lyrically or thematically inappropriate. Playing good music around children may actually interest them in music, or, if they're bound to be interested in music no matter what you play them, it will interest them in good music rather than in bad music. Anecdotally, I listened to good music as a child, and was as interested in music as a four year old as I am today. By five, I'd decided Talking Heads were my favorite band, and by 4th grade I'd bought all their albums. I didn't spend money on anything other than CDs. I think being exposed to good music as a kid is the reason I love music, and the reason I'm interested in music more than I am in anything else, today.
Of course, what constitutes "good" music is subjective. But this stuff is being sold as "watered down s--t kids can digest." Whatever you think is good music, play your children. All I ask is you don't play something you don't like because you think it's more child-friendly.
