Any Beatles songs for me and Dad to dance to?

Original post by diamondgrlie

He loves the Beatles so I thought it would be special... I am not a Beatles expert though. Anyone know of a good one for us to dance to? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone!

OK
FINALLY
found a free and VERY legal clip.

Link directly to clip of 'In My Life' the ACTUAL song

Here's the main page link so you can just click the link yourself to d/l the clip.

Rubber Soul Page
(GO all the way to the bottom you'll see the little ear)

Man.. I can't imagine someone not really hearing 'in My life' if I can't help it!!!
WHEW

Does anyone have the lyrics for I Will? My sister recommended that I dance with my brother (father passed away 2 yrs ago) to this song and since my father was a HUGE Beatles fan it would act as a song for me and my brother but also honor my dad. Thanks!

I agree that My Life for you and your dad would be perfect!

I Will

Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely lifetime
If you want me to, I will

For if I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same

Love you forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart

And when at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
Oh, you know I will
I will

Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm
Da da da da da da da

Thanks. Do you think it's appropriate for a brother?

Personally for me...
Yes.

My brother and I are VERY close. We've been through living hell together and really didnt bicker like normal siblings but instead spent a lot of our younger childhood leaning on eachother, raising eachother. I care very much for him.

I think people don't sit and listen to every word and say 'OOOH incest' I think it's a lovely song, especially since they know you'll be dancing with your brother and in essense your father both at the same time.

You guys are great for all these suggestions! I asked my mom what she thought and she was upset I wasnt going to dance to Daddy's Little Girl... it means alot to her so I am going to think about it. My mom and dad's first date was the Beatles concert at Shea Stadium and their wedding song was, well I dont know the title but it goes: 'There were bells on the hill, but I never heard them ringing...' OH the title is 'Til there was you'.

Xelindrya will know which song I am talking about.

Great SONG!!

Till there was you....


There were bells on a hill
But I never heard them ringing
No, I never heard them at all
Till there was you

There were birds in the sky
But I never saw them winging
No, I never saw them at all
Till there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn and dew

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No, I never heard it at all
Till there was you

Then there was music and wonderful roses
They tell me in sweet fragrant meadows
Of dawn and dew

There was love all around
But I never heard it singing
No, I never heard it at all
Till there was you
Till there was you

Calico Skies
by Paul McCartney

It was written that I would love you
From the moment I opened my eyes
And the morning when I first saw you
Gave me life under calico skies
I will hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Always looking for ways to love you
Never failing to fight at your side
While the angels of love protect us
From the innermost secrets we hide
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life

Long live all us crazy soldiers
Who were born under calico skies
May we never be called to handle
All the weapons of war we despise
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my...
For the rest of my life

My boss is a huge Beatles fan so I went into his office to see if he had any music with him and he did. He played I Will for me and not only did I remember that I've heard the song many times, I almost started crying. I decided that I have to have that song now. Thanks Xelindrya!

Diamondgrlie...I personally think like My Life better than Daddy's Little Girl. Does your dad have an opinion on which song he would prefer to dance with you to? Either way, it will be a very special moment for the two of you!!!

My dad hates dancing because he is horrible at it and I should add we arent the closest father and daughter in the world. Since I said I was engaged he has been nicer to me but I am not the typical daddys little girl at all. He said he doesnt care which song. I have a while to decide, maybe he will tell my mom the truth.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that I'm sure you will find the perfect song that works for the two of you and your relationship.

My pleasure as a big Beatle fan myself it's always nice to pass this stuff on.

Sorry to hear you guys arent extra close.
My dad loves to dance. He's the only man (yes ONLY) I know how to dance with.

So for Jim & I.... I was thinking perhaps we can have the DJ start the song and speak over the intro by introducing us and that will eat up some time and then we'll start to dance and NOT actually dance to the end .. have the Dj say something like 'Veronica & Jim chose not to end this dance because like their life, their dance has only just begun' then invite others to join us to finish up the song. Cause..it's ME who doesnt like to Dance. I feel all awkward and stuff.

I looked at the lyrics, they were very nice. I wish Napster was still around! I want to hear it!

Napster is actually back, you just have to pay for it now.
