Father Daughter Dance

[RadioLyss]

Hello everyone,

I am looking for some ideas for "different" songs to use for the father daughter dance. Almost everyone I know has used Daddys little girl. Anyone got any ideas for something different?

[BrideDesign]

My Dad picked our song, so maybe your Dad will surprise you by having some ideas himself. I danced to I Hope you'll Dance, by LeeAnn Womack with my Dad...a little country-ish for me, but the words were perfect for us. My sister and my Dad danced to Have I Told you Lately that I Love You, by the Chieftans, but so many other artists have done that song. My best friend used, You are so Beautiful by Joe Cocker for her father/daughter dance. Hope those suggestions help, but I think your choices are only limited by the lyrics...make sure they reflect you and your Dad. Good luck!

my dad and i are going to be dancing to "changes," originally done by black sabbath but redone by ozzy and kelly. it's very cute but certainly not for everyone.

Please help me make a decision of what song to use. My father passed away so I'll be dancing this with my uncle. I was thinking of dancing to Wind Beneath my Wings by Bette Midler, or Your're my Inspiration by Chicago.
What are your thoughts?

I am using "Butterfly Kisses". I am sure that is popular, and I think it is sung by Bob Carlile (or however you spell it...).


starburst,

I like those songs... I think one of them would work well.

I used Butterfly Kisses at my first wedding to dance with my father. This time, I'm not sure what I'll use, b/c my dad most likely won't be attending. My step dad will be able to attend this time, and I don't know what song I'd want played for our dance. We didn't get along when I was a kid, although we get along fine now.

My dad & I will dance to "MY GIRL" it's his favorite, and he ALWAYS sung it to me & my sister when we were little!

This is the hardest song for me to figure out - there is no song that I have heard yet that describes my father. My father was both father and mother to me growing up - I'm daddy's little girl, he's my hero, he's one of my best friends. He's a cool dad - he's everyone's dad - the fun loving, laid back guy (except when its time to get down to business) - the guy that never told me what to do, but advised and guided. I just haven't found a song that is "it" - anyone know of any songs that aren't cliche like "wind beneath my wings" or something like that? Preferrably something country, but doesn't have to be
