It’s really jarring to hear a song from your past be acknowledged as a great song, or to hear one being sung, accurately by your child.
I had this experience this morning as I was driving the 12yo to school and Kiss’s Rock and Roll all nite comes on the radio. I start to change the station and instead am told to leave it – she likes this song.
I looked at her and asked quite seriously where she knew the song from. Was it a commercial? “No Dad” ( with a duh I her voice). I used to be able to play it really well in Guitar Hero.
Well, there ya go.
