Father/daughter dance

I am finding it hard to find a song for the Father/ Daughter dance that is not Country music. My dad is 82 years old also so can't have a too lively song.

So any ideas out there for me would be greatly appreciated.Smiley smile

    Hi Kendra

    I am having the same issue. My father is also over 80 and I do not like country. Most of the songs sound like country.

    My dad is not very good with computers, typing or the internet but I asked HIM to help me select a father/daughter dance. I thought of waltz as it his era and I can learn before the wedding. I had my brother assist him with interent help.

    So far he likes John McDermott "Daughter of Mine". It is not my favourite but I wanted my dad to select the song as it is his song to me and this way he has a say. He will not be with us for much longer but years later when I look back I will always remember that he took time to research and find a song for us that is meaningful to him meant for us.

    Perhaps ask him to help you select a song. It may not be the one you want but it wil be a song that your dad would like to dance with you as it has meaning to him.

    Hey Kendra! Smiley heart

    You could also go for a Frank Sinatra song? Smiley smile

    What kind of music does your father like? What other songs will be in your playlist? Smiley smile

    What about one of the classic greats like Frank Sinatra's The Way You Look Tonight or Unforgettable by Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole?

    I am going to be dancing to 'Isn't she lovely' by Stevie Wonder. Perfect song and sentiment.

    Daughters by John Mayer! That's one of my faves but I didn't dance with my father so we went with a different song.
