Father/Daughter Dance

What songs are you ladies dancing with your fathers to?

I discussed with my dad the other day and he says he doesn't want something 'cheesy' aka too sentimental and he wants it to be a short song. LOL! We're both big Beatles and Billy Joel fans, but I can't really think of any songs by them that would be good for a father/daughter dance. Help me ladies! TIA!

ETA: What about 'She's Got a Way' by Billy Joel??

Lullabye is beautiful but so sad- I'll cry my eyes out. LOL! Okay, I'm gonna run it by my dad and see what he says. He hasn't come up with anything better so far!

Try Paul Simon - Father and Daughter. Its not too slow or sappy.

Also, Landslide by Stevie Nicks (hint: the live version starts off with her saying 'this is for you daddy')

I think we are dancing to It Wont Be Like This For Long by Darius Rucker (yep, Hootie). If you you tube the music video, you will get it.

It is a beautiful song!
My dad is a big Beach Boys fan and that was my first concert that I saw and I saw it with him. We are going to use 'Forever.' Actually, John Stamos sings it on Full House lol with the Beach Boys. We are using the Beach Boys version though!

I'm using Father and Daughter by Paul Simon... my one concern is that its a bit long but our band is going to shorten it a little

We are dancing to Darius Rucker's 'It won't be like this for long'. My Dad LOVES this song

Unforgettable by Nat and Natalie Cole

I gave my dad this job and he came back with a GREAT one. I wanted Wings Beneath My Wings by Bett Midler but the song is like 5+ minutes long and I didn't want to cut any of the songs short.

Re: Father/Daughter Dance

Thinking of using a Beatles song, 'Michelle' cause I am named after that song and it would also be a way to include my mom who has passed.
