As a kid, 28-year-old Sligh (pictured at age 2) composed his own soundtracks. "Everything he did, he accompanied with his own background music: songs he knew, car noises, plane noises," says his mother, Susan. He was such a noisy kid that his grandmother likely had no trouble locating him in her tub during a game of hide-and-seek in Springfield, Tenn. Says Mom: "The only time he was ever quiet was when he was sleeping."
