20 Baby Shower Songs to Play and Party

A party without great music would simply be incomplete. Even for a simple party like a baby shower, music is essential to keep the guests entertained and creating a playlist that signifies the bond between a child and the parent would be perfect. Check out this amazing collection of songs that you could add in your baby shower music playlist! The list contains everything, from country baby shower songs to funny baby shower songs and even beautiful baby shower songs for dance.

Why Is It Important to Choose a Good Playlist for a Baby Shower Party?

When you are inviting people who are close to you, you are sure to end up with at least two generations at your party. However, no matter what age groups your guests belong to, you can be sure that no two people at your party will like the same type of music. While some might like the current pop vibe, others would be into music from the 20th century. Therefore, it is best to diversify the type of music since a playlist will help make people at your party get more comfortable.

Moreover, your baby might also start enjoying these songs. Various studies have shown that fetuses inside the womb can still be sensitive to sounds and remember them when they are born. During the time of the baby shower, the baby would have already developed its ears and would be able to recognize the mother’s voice, sound patterns, and language. At this point, the baby’s brain would be receptive to soft music, which can promote early brain development and happiness.

20 Songs to Play at a Baby Shower

Here are some hits that people of all ages might enjoy at your baby shower.

As we roll down this unfamiliar road

Just know you’re not alone
‘Cause I’m going to make this place your home”

“Well, open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and, damn, you’re free

We’re just one big family”

5. Haven’t Met You Yet – Michael Buble

And baby your love is gonna change me
And now I can see every possibility

And I promise you, kid, I’ll give so much more than I get
I just haven’t met you yet”

6. Count On Me – Bruno Mars

If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can’t see,
I’ll be the light to guide you”

7. Welcome to the World – Nicolette Larson

“It’s the same old story
Yes, it’s nothing new,

Just a dream come true.
In a flash of glory,
In a ray of light,
Welcome to the world,
That will hold you tight.”

8. Yellow – Coldplay

“Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called, “Yellow”
So then I took my turn
Oh, what a thing to have done
And it was all yellow”

How I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high
Like a diamond in the sky”

For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine

Our love will never die, no”

Forever you’ll stay in my heart”

Right there where they belong
And I know I’m not alone”

You’re mine”

Having my baby
What a lovely way of saying
What you’re thinking of me.
I can see it your face is glowing”

“She’s got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I’d probably break down and cry”

It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away”

That night I don’t think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt”

18. Last Night On Earth – Green Day

“You are the moonlight of my life every night
Giving all my love to you
My beating heart belongs to you
I walked for miles ’til I found you
I’m here to honour you
If I lose everything in the fire
I’m sending all my love to you”

19. Miracle – Celine Dion

“You’re the reason I was born
Now I finally know for sure
And I’m overwhelmed with happiness
So blessed to hold you close
The one that I love most
With all the future has so much for you in-store
Who could ever love you more?”

20. Sweetest Devotion – Adele

“With your loving, there ain’t nothing
That I can’t adore
The way I’m running, with you, honey
Means we can break every law
I find it funny that you’re the only
One I never looked for
There is something in your loving
That tears down my walls”
