hi! I am downloading some music to start listening to to help me with the "baby mood". I got the idea from a magazine, and I used a few songs off of their list. Now that we know we are having a boy, I would like to add some songs written just for boys to the list. I have "I see me" by travis tritt. I like music from any era or genre basically, so any suggestions are more than helpful!!! Thanks!! ↓

I'm trying to find the same thing...I'm going to make a video to music when my baby boy is born...and video everyone at the hospital, etc....the only one I've found is Jamey Johnson "the dollar" that refers to a little boy. I'll have to listen to the travis tritt one. Good luck! ↑

Give me a second and I will give you the list I have so far! I have a few that I like that arent for boys specifically, just for babies! But quite a few are for a boy! ↑

Hey you, you're a child in my head
You haven't walked yet
Your first words have yet to be said
But I swear you'll be blessed
I know you're still just a dream
your eyes might be green
Or the bluest that I've ever seen
Anyway you'll be blessed
And you, you'll be blessed
You'll have the best
I promise you that
I'll pick a star from the sky
Pull your name from a hat
I promise you that, promise you that, promise you that
You'll be blessed
I need you before I'm too old
To have and to hold
To walk with you and watch you grow
And know that you're blessed

Words above are from the song "Blessed" by Elton John ↑
lauren hill-"zion" or "to zion" im not exactly sure what the name is but its a beautiful song....some of the lyrics are as follows - "unsure of what the balance held i touched my belly overwhelmed by what i had been chosen to perform...but ? this crazy circumstance i knew his life deserved a chance"..." how beautiful if nothing more than to wait at zions door i've never been in love like this before now let me pray to keep you from the perils that will surely come see life for you my prince has just begun"..."see i know that a gift so great is only one God could create and im reminded everytime i see your face" ↑

I know there's one by John Lennon. I think it's call "Beautiful Boy." I heard it on the movie, "Mr. Holland's Opus." It's a very nice song. ↑

"Godspeed" by the Dixie Chicks is a beautiful song Natlie wrote for her little boy. Also "A New Day Has Come" by Celine Dion is about finally having a baby boy after suffering with infertility. ↑

18tobe- I know!! isn't it precious?!? I''m going in for an 18 week U/S tomorrow to confirm I'm having a boy....I was going to use "there goes my life" for my babies birth video if it was a girl...now I'm trying to find another one I like as much as that one for a boy...since I'm sure thats what I'll end up having... ↑

Just an idea but maybe if you visit a Wedding Website and look at some of the ideas they have for Mother/Son dances, they may have some good suggestions. One song that I absoultely adore is by Gretch Wilson. It's on her All Jacked UP CD and is called "Holding you". This is the chorus Holding you, holds me together
When holding on gets just a little too hard
When this tight rope I travel begins to unravel
And I feel like I'm falling apart
Holding you, holds me together
Good luck to all of you, I hope you find that perfect song! ↑
oh and you can dl off of Bear Share its really good ↑

I think I'll like "the day you gave me a son" by babyface the most for a baby boy...especially since he says first thing how he found out they were pregnant in Dec...which is when I found out! =) but I cant seem to find a place online where I can listen to the whole song...I can only find places that let me hear teeny clips..? ↑

I'm making a CD right now for my expecting friend: try these great songs: SNOWBALL by Hoagy Carmichael, Paul Simon's ST. JUDY'S COMET, The Divine Comedy's CHARMED LIFE, Talking Head's STAY UP LATE, Kristen Hersh's MOMMA'S GONNA BUY, HUSH LITTLE BABY by Bobby McFerrin and ,of course, (though about a little girl) Stevie Wonder's wonderful ISN"T SHE LOVELY. You can find all of these for free on Kazaa if you're patient. ↑

Wow! This is an ancient post!! Thanks for all the responses. I am glad to report that I had DS on August 7th at 9:53 p.m. His name is Connor Ethan and he is almost 3 months old now. He is a perfect baby! Good luck to all you 2nd trimester moms! It will be here before you know it! ↑

"Beautiful Boy" by Celine Dion. I cry every time I hear it... ↑
Now that baby's here, you should check out "When You Dream" by the Barenaked Ladies. It's a beautiful lullaby, very soft & slow:
"With life just begun, my sleeping new son has eyes that roll back in his head
They flutter and dart, he slows down his heart and pictures a world past his bed
It's hard to believe As I watch you breathe
Your mind drifts and weaves When you dream, what do you dream about? When you dream, what do you dream about? Do you dream about music or mathematics or planets too far for the eye? Do you dream about Jesus or quantum mechanics or angels who sing lullabies?" etc... ↑

I realize that this is an old one, but figured that if anyone did look back or someone new was looking I would give this song that I used for my son's video. It is called "Simple Man" by Shinedown. It is kind of rock but a very good song if you listen to the lyrics. ↑
