Holiday in Spain, the accidental lullaby
We stumbled upon this magic Counting Crows song when Nate was a baby. One day, frustrated by the screaming baby in my back seat, I turned up my Hard Candy CD just as Holiday in Spain started. Nate stopped crying. It was no coincidence. This song always put Nate to sleep in the car. Now, it works the same magic on Van. When other people ride in the car they can’t believe it. From the first rhythmic notes, Van, like Nate, quiets down. Crying baby? No problem. Even Nate knows — “put on Holiday on Spain, Mommy.” Thank you, Adam Duritz, for writing the most effective, powerful, and beautiful accidental lullaby we know.
