Hey @bizarchive.bsky.social - would love to see a poll of phish fans: what song(s) do you sing your kids at bedtime? My son likes Driver, Contact, and Bouncin. #phish

Contact
If I Could

The peak was when my 5 year old son would fall asleep while singing along to every word…it’s actually quite lovely slowed down and sung a capella in a hushed whisper in the dark.
Honestly surprised no one else mentioned it. The repetition of “softly sing sweet songs” just seems like it’d hit the spot.

2. Alright for Now by Tom Petty
3. Dirt by Phish
(Plus the standards of itsy bitsy spider, twinkle twinkle, you are my sunshine, etc)
