Our Adult Kid this week is Alicia Keys. Once again, I’m thanking Sesame Street for this one. Alicia sang a special version of “Fallin (Dancin)” with Elmo for one episode, and joined him on Elmo’s 2007 Christmas Countdown. We’ll also be Talking Tunes with Brian and Tom of Milkshake – today’s tune is “Shine On Me” by Dan Auerbach. And we’ll hear new music from kindie artists Dan Zanes, The Bazillions, Joanie Leeds and the Alphabet Rockers. We’ll also hear something from Ladysmith Black Mambazo’s new CD for families. Here’s Alisha Keys and Elmo.
