Children's music

After your wonderful recommendations for baby books, does anyone have any good recommendations for baby music? I have got a nursery rhymes CD (god, aren't the lyrics violent? 'When the bough breaks the cradle will fall / Down will come baby, cradle and all" What are they trying to do, traumatise the kid?) but wondered if anyone had any good ideas for proper music. Thanks!

I'm slightly embarrassed to admit both my boys seemed to like Queen. They like gangsta and Radiohead now.

There's a wonderful play songs cd which is both nice to listen to and has some good actions to do if you are in a more energetic mood - it is not the usual songs so it makes a change from falling cradles etc. It is available from the NCT http://www.nctsales.co.uk/prodshow.asp?id=68&cat=0&scat=0&parent=

Queen - thee were lucky!
My son would only go to sleep to Barbara Dickson. First a track or two, then a side of a cassette (you remember cassettes?). And then both sides - I can't hear Barbara Dickson now without breaking into a cold sweat. He's now into Bare Naked Ladies, but I'm not sure if that's a 'pop group' or something else . . .
