It's 2052. And we're programming an oldies station that plays the "turn of the century hits" (that's 21st century). What music from the '90s, '00s and '10s would survive? And what wouldn't?

"I can hear music for the first time ever, what should I listen to?" is the headline of a Reddit post that caught my attention today.

Everyone pretty much agrees that singing to babies is a good thing. Singing can help strengthen the bond between parent and child; it nurtures brain development; and in fact, women are being taught to sing to their babies while they're still in the womb. Heck, even dogs know that it's important.
