I thought Oz and Gully were a lil' too high brow for pop culture. Apparently, I was wrong. Up until this weekend, the only music I've found that they really respond to is Opera. Quite by accident, of course. Channel surfing one day I stumbled across an Opera on PBS and before I moved onto another channel, I noticed that they both had their heads cocked and they ears alert. Totally immersed in the music. They now have their very own Opera CD. Notice that it's theirs, not mine. :)
This weekend though, I came to discover that Gully has quite eceletic musical tastes. There was a Brady Bunch marathon on TVLand and I was watching off and on all weekend, trying to catch one of the musical episodes, which are my favorites. Last night, they finally showed the episode where they enter a talent contest, trying to raise money to pay for the Silver Platter they got for their parent's aniversary.
They begin dancing and singing the "Keep On Movin'" song and I'm singing along... "Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, dancing all through the night. Ya gotta keep on, keep on, keep on, doing it riiiiggghhtttt"... When I get to the "Wooo" part of the song, Gully jumped up and ran to me all excited, poking his nose in my face. Hummmmmm... He's really into this. So I jump up and do my best to imitate the dance steps, while I'm singing along. Cross step, point, bend and run backwards real fast
Gully just went nutz. He was bouncing all around me, then he put his nose near my thigh and moved wherever I moved. We were dancing. Well if you can call immulating the Brady Bunch steps as dancing. :) Oz finally joined in too. Murph, of course, looked at us like we've lost our minds. (He's a Cyndi Lauper fan, so I think he sticks his nose up towards the Brady's musical stylings;))
We had so much fun, I think I'm gonna have to break out my Brady Bunch Greatest Hits CD and make this a regular activity. Maybe we can perfect their dance steps together. Ah, who knew they had so much rhythm in their souls. ;)
