As you may know, Jenelle and I are expecting our first child next February. In July we found out our baby Joey was diagnosed with a severe, and unfortunately fatal, Neural Tube Defect and is not expected to live more than a day. To celebrate her all too brief life Jenelle and I are keeping a list of experiences she would have had if she wasn’t expected to leave us so soon.
Last night I played the following song for Joey. It is a VERY popular song in Australia as you will see in the second video.
You’re The Voice John Farnham – This version was played.
Having seen that, I played a favorite version of the song by Coldplay.
You’re The Voice Coldplay with John Farnham – This version was played.
After that Jenelle wanted to play a version that was her and her brother Matt’s favorite. She explained they would pantomime the actions of John Farnham as kids. In fact she started to ape his actions as she lay in bed.

This final version was not played for our little Joey. It is a scene in the Andy Samberg vehicle Hot Rod. I had seen this movie before Jenelle and I met and the song didn’t register. When I watched it on Netflix a few months ago, I recognized it right away.
