Paul_Burkett Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Well, with only five weeks to go until my daughter gets married, I have yet to find a fitting song for the father daughter dance. I have listened to a lot of music and only a couple have been "dance worthy", and now, with the clock ticking down closer to that glorious day, I am still looking for that just right song. So if you know of a song that is usable that is a slow dance, heart felt but not heart wrenching, song from a father to his daughter, please let me know your choice and if your song is selected, I will buy you a drink at the UN or BMW national or at the TOR rally. Thank you for your help. Link to comment
Albert Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 "I Loved Her First" by Heartland and "My Wish" by Rascal Flats. Both country but not overly so. I've had time to think about this although my daughter is not yet engaged. My choice would be the former. Link to comment

Paul_Burkett Posted May 25, 2008 Author Share Posted May 25, 2008 It looks like the winner is........."In My Daughter's Eyes" by the lovely Martina McBride. I like it, my wife cried when she heard it and of course the bride-to-be likes it too. I liked the thought of having "Dazed and Confused", but got out-voted before I could even read all of the list to them. So the drinks go to Lisa. Thanks to all who got back to me and helped make this job a lot easier than I was making it for myself. Link to comment
marcopolo Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Way to go, Paul. Really enjoy this special day, and that dance. Link to comment
90%angel Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I've been traveling for work lately, so I just saw that you came to a decision. I'm glad you found a song that spoke to you. Have fun at the wedding! Link to comment
Bud Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Paul, Our thoughts will be with you on that special day. Link to comment
nicewife Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Stephen Curtis Chapman- "Dancing with Cinderella". It's a great Father-Daughter song. Link to comment
Quinn Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Just think, if this were happening twenty years in the future, you'd be looking for a rap song and the bride would be wearing a dress that showed off her "tramp stamp." Sorry, I just got to thinking after seeing a reference to Lilly Thomlins joke about bean bag chairs being antiques one day. Link to comment
