    Trust me when I say – keep him away from Rage Against the Machine, unless you want his first more understandable words to be rather defiant and totally inappropriate for a sweet baby…

    in line with the first poster, does Huxley sing? and how does he respond to simple songs and music? I have the hypothesis that human voice derive from adaptation to singing, it would have evolved as a courting signal, and a social cement expressing emotional states. The adaptation to language might be a recent process.

    does he like both kinds of music–country *and* western?
