I'm impressed that he managed to figure this out whilst taking care of a baby.
When my son was born, I spent most of the wee hours testing which Star Wars theme I hummed worked best for getting him back to sleep.
(By the way, The Imperial March worked best, especially slowed down and rocking him on every 4th beat)
- g4nt1 10y agoNot a Star Wars theme but the one that worked the best for me was Ravel's Bolero.
- nekopa 10y agoI think that tunes with a strong repetitive beat seem to work best over something that is pure melody. Bolero hits on that count.
- sharemywin 10y agoI made my own song up something about ...little baby falls asleep so dad can go back to bed...
- cwingrav 10y agoMy kid loves the Imperial March too for some reason. I thought I was a bad parent. Strange we came to the same conclusion. There must be something to this. /s (n=2)
- mundo 10y agoNow I want to know if anyone else uses the Galaxy Song from _Monty Python's Meaning of Life_.
- LeifCarrotson 10y agoNo, you're not a bad parent, your son is just going to grow up to be a Sith Lord.
- hellofunk 10y agoThis was my first reaction as well. Paternity leave is not what I'd call an opportunity for deep thoughts and pondering. He must have had a very good baby!
- mindfulgeek 10y agoI wonder how his partner feels about the experience.
