Dad Songs
So...i am compiling a cd of songs to give my dad so he can pick one for us to dance to. We are very close and i have a bunch of the regular sappy ones on there like..'I loved her first" and the such..but can anyone suggest any classic songs that may work as well? dont have to necessarily be a "daddy" song...I am all about using classic songs as opposed to what I feel everyone else does...ya know...like an old jazz song or something...i have a bunch but welcome any suggestions! Thanks ladies!

Re: Dad Songs
I did the same thing with my dad!!! He had it down to My Joy by Chrisstte Michelle and My Little Girl By Tim McGraw and he picked the Tim McGraw song.
Take a listen to My Joy. It has a new age-jazz-lounge type of feel.

Re: Dad Songs
you know which song i really like?
"Cinderella" by Steven Curtis Chapman.
OMG - it made me cry the first time i listened to it. I would use it if I didn't already have one picked out. The one i already have i feel is more fitting for our relationship, but maybe this one works for you! Check it out!
