dude. she has a mind like a steel trap!
Are you sure she's not a 10 year old dwarf?
Holy shit, that is impressive! Your kid is criminally cute and apparently also some sort of savant.
Merry Christmas to all of you -
Tell me, do cold stone hearts turn to molten gold when Juniper walks by?
this made my christmas eve - thank you!
That was great! Love this song so much.
Hope you guys have a great Christmas.
Fantastic! Do you self-edit your songs to her or did you stop taping before the "cheap lousy faggot" and "old slut on junk" lines appeared?
She is just awesome! I can't believe her memory for all those lyrics. Thanks for sharing this!
juan: I never sing those lines, but I don't think it's because I'm self-censoring. I just can't do them justice. Pretty damn glad now though, that I didn't sing them to her.
it's impossible not to be happy when you watch that.
Juniper could hang with Xiobhan's Aunt Marian apparently.
Merry Christmas, Junipers!
ha! merry christmas G's.
Wow--I never noticed Shane MacGowan's dental work (or the lack thereof) until now.
That was brill!! Juniper is simply fantastic!
Amazing. She does Kirsty proud. Merry Christmas, Junipers!
fantastic! it's amazing that she memorized that whole thing...such a cute kid!
merry christmas!
she's going to start skanking now too, right? merry christmas!
I was having a shitty night, and Juney made it all better.
I second the steel trap comment.
Thanks dutch, and hey there wood, even the left third of your face is enough to see you're glowing, and merry christmas.
oh my. i do have to be more careful around children. their minds pick up more than mine does. though i may never forget juniper singing that song, and will she remember?
thank you for all the posts, and merry christmas.
This shot me right out of lurking, so precious. I loved The Pogues when I was around her age. I remember my dad would play that album over and over, back when it was new, and I can still play it now and just remember every song. Not was well as Juniper, mind you.
That is AWESOME! What a wonderful and quirky thing to sing to her! Beats the crap out of Twinkle Twinkle that I sing...
Though anymore, we improv that and make up all new words to Twinkle.
Sparkle Snurfle Little Eyeball
How I wonder what you kneecap
Up above the armpit so high
Like a bellybutton in the sky
Snapple Dawdle little chin
How I wonder what you eyebrow.
Evidently that is hilarious when you're four.
Merry Christmas to all of you, good health, happiness, and much sleep do I wish for you all in 2008.
Your daughter is a little prodigy. Merry Christmas!
This was the best Christmas present. You obviously have a little genius on your hands!
as I played Juney's video, all my boys came over to the computer to see who was singing. that's amazing. you need to start reciting The Wasteland at bedtime.
and "I could have been someone/well, so could anyone" is my very favorite duet exchange.
I saw the Pogues in a small concert hall around this time, near the end. I never got over Spider Stacey.
I've always loved that song - that you use it as a lullaby and that Juniper knows all those words just makes it even better. I didn't get to see this post until today, I hope you guys had a lovely christmas. It's my birthday today (and Steven's too) - this has made our day!
That was one of the funniest things I have ever seen... now my daugher (who will be 3 next month) wants me to play that song - and she was waving to Juniper as Juniper sang the song. Well done! Make sure she doesn't get into the whiskey too soon, it will ruin her career.
My husband stopped dead in his tracks once he realized what she was singing and started to sing along, until I shushed him, because dude, I'd rather hear HER than him 
Oh? And I think she is the most adorable thing on the planet.
You get five Cool Points.
I was totally waiting for the "old slut on junk" line, too!! :-D
Scuse me while I run off to put "If I Should Fall...." on!
Holy shit! That is amazing.
Now let's see a video of Jimmy Snowbank. 
P.S. I melted at the "I love you baby" expression, too....awwwwwwwwww.
That is the most incredible thing I've seen in ages. Wow. *I* can rarely remember all of the words, and I'm 37 years old. Amazing, and incredibly adorable.
Wow!
You were holding a cue card right? And she can read from 30 feet away...
I have 4 boys and a mid-life crisis happening right now. I think my ovaries just exploded.
She is precious.
My son is now asking when Juniper is going to come to our house and sing with him.
Thank you for sharing...awesome.
Merry Christmas!
Holy crap, that was adorable.
Amazing! That just totally made my day.
That is one of the most incredible things I've heard in a long, long time. What a gift!
And she isn't just parroting...she totally emoted the "I love you baby" part- she got it - awesome.
p.s. there is another Meagan?!?!
Landlady Pearl has got NOTHING on Juney. More! More!
This is my favorite Christmas song, and this is the cutest thing I've ever seen, although I was a little sad she didn't sing, "You old slut on junk."
Archer just kissed her face. Too cute.
Wow. That is the cutest thing I've seen in a grip. She's adorable. And I watched the Shane MacGowan clip, and I think Juniper does it better. So precious.
I am wondering about the Dora sunglasses in a different post. Does she ask who that girl is because she doesn't really know?
That was the last album my dad bought before he died. Your girl was adorable singing it.
That's awesome!
My brother just passed this new version of Fairytale in New York to me. It's at the end of the clip.

(And yes that really is Shane McGowan. I didn't believe it at first!)
Classic.
My favorite holiday tune. Our daughter sings it as well and it just makes me smile.
Holy crap! That was amazing! I don't even know the words that well and it's one of my favorite Christmas songs.
AWESOMETOWN.
She sings it slightly less slurry than I do. We should take it on the road. (Sorry so late. I was trapped under heavy holiday things.)
xo
I honestly never thought I'd watch home movies of other peoples' kids. I wish we lived closer, I think Roo and Juniper would be good pals. Drinkin' buddies, even.
hahaha, that is awesome. I got so busted when the kid mentioned "plumber's crack" in front of my mother-in-law. If it'd been the "old slut on junk" line, I'd be dead right now.
Jim! I clicked on this clip not realizing what song Juney was singing but my attention was grabbed immediately. Did she just say: 'drunk tank'??? I listened all the way through and, jaysus me laddie, if I didn't truly believe she must be singing a Pogues song. And I was right! Good work, Jim, good work. Happy New Year to you and yours. Wood is truly beautiful sitting there in the background with that huge grin on her face.
NO WAY!
i swear to god, my kids LOVE this song too! my four year old can't get enough of the pogues altogether.
juniper would be best buddies with my brood, if you ever decide to move to atlanta.
and in reference to shane's dental work:

Came to your blog via Design Sponge, and would love to see this video... is there a reason it is no longer available?
