Apologies to those of you who have choked on this before.
The Rb loves J-Lo, especially her mega-hit "Booty".
I recently made a psychedelic version with subtitles.

My previous bird really enjoyed “When You Believe” by Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston. I still think about him every time I listen to that song.
Nico seems to like any song that involves a lot of hammering on the guitar on my part - he headbangs and chirps along to it. He doesn’t seem to enjoy recorded songs played on speakers so I just stick with live music concerts (by yours truly) that I put on just for him, what a spoiled bird!
Ralph's favorite song is Ring-a-Ding-Ding by Frank Sinatra. He only has to hear the first few notes of the instrumental lead-in and he gets excited, then expects me to sing along with Frank. Scooter the CAG is not much of a music lover; if she has a favorite song, I haven't found out yet what it is.
