PUT YOUR HANDS UP! Check out “All the NICU Babies,” a Beyoncé parody inspired by “All the Single Ladies!” Make sure to wait until the end for a very special THEN & NOW dedication to some of our NICU graduates.
Victoria Vitale, a music therapist at Advocate Children’s Hospital, and Tess Bottorff, a neonatal nurse at Advocate Children’s Hospital, partnered to write the lyrics to this adorable song. Victoria also recorded the song, and shot/edited the music video that featured some of our tiniest patients.
“In creating ‘All the NICU Babies,’ I hoped to highlight some of the ways in which music therapy benefits patients, families, and staff in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit,” says Victoria. “Normalizing the ICU environment and returning the caregiver role back to parents at bedside helps decrease perceived stress and improve parent-infant bonding. I wanted to help parents make something meaningful of their hospitalization and feel a sense of mastery and purpose during a time when so much is out of their control. I watched parents smile, laugh, hold, kiss, and dance with their babies. This project has not only helped build a sense of community with our parents, but has significantly boosted morale amongst staff. Music therapy enhances the patient, parent, and staff experience--and this is just one way in which I work as a music therapist in the NICU!”

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Now put your hands up
Up in the crib (crib), gettin’ real big (big)
I’m doin’ my own little thing
I decided to sleep, but now I wanna eat
Are you gonna feed me
I'm off O2, I got no lines
I need all the attention
'Cause I cried my tears for what felt like years
You can't be mad at me
'Cause since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
Since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
I love you, and I know that you love me
'Cause since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
'Cause since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
Since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
I love you, and I know that you love me
'Cause since you love me then you're gonna wanna cuddle with me
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
All the NICU babies
(All the NICU babies)
All the NICU babies
(All the NICU babies)
All the NICU babies
(All the NICU babies)
All the NICU babies

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
