My friend danced with her mom to Bette Midler 'Wind Beneath My Wings' and another used 'Because you Loved Me' to dance with her sisters & brothers

Re: mommie's little girl dance
Another beautiful song, which I am using to dance to with my dad is 'If it wasn't for your love' by Heather Headley. It would definitely be good for a mother/daughter dance also.
thank you so much for posting this! my father passed away about 5 years ago and my grandfather who was going to walk me down the isle and dance w/ me passed today! so now i have to ask my mom do the honors and it's soo confusing as to what to do! thank you.

Re: mommie's little girl dance
I am in the same boat. My dad passed away when I was 5 so it has always just been mom...I was thinking of a slow, sappy song but than I thought of maybe doing a faster song like 'Simply the best' by Tina Turner! (I'll probably use that one for her surprise 50th b-dy this summr and go with a sappy one!)
How about that Josh Groban song 'You raise me up'...that song is amazing!! Good Luck!

Re: mommie's little girl dance
wow, thanks for suggesting 'if it wasn't for your love' by heather headley. i had already chosen a song for my dance with my dad (you raise me up, josh groban), but i might change my mind! another GORGEOUS song is 'in my daughter's eyes' by martina mcbride...appropriate to dance with mom OR dad.

Re: mommie's little girl dance
FairyLise...I am so sorry!!!! My prayers are with you and your family for your loss.
TinkerB30....For my mom's 50th bday my 2 sisters and I danced to 'because you loved me' by Celine Dion with her and my uncles danced 'wind beneath my wings' with her.
They are both great songs and I have to agree with Josh Groban's 'You raise me up'...it really is amazing!!
Good Luck and Kudos to you, your mom will feel special!!!

I'm doing the same thing and am between Wind Beneath My Wings and Kind and Generous (Natalie Merchant). Below are the lyrics to Kind and Generous (I figure most people know Wind Beneath My Wings).
Kind and Generous You've been so kind and generous, I don't know how you keep on giving For your kindness I'm in debt to you For your selflessness, my admiration For everything you've done, you know I'm bound, I'm bound to thank you for it....
You've been so kind and generous, I don't know how you keep on giving For your kindness I'm in debt to you And I never could have come this far without you For everything you've done, you know I'm bound, I'm bound to thank you for it....
I want to thank you for so many gifts you gave with love and tenderness, I wanna thank you I want to thank you for your generosity, the love and the honesty that you gave me I want to thank you, show my gratitude, my love and my respect for you, I wanna thank you
Oh I want to thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you...

All the credit goes to Nsgraham who posted that song, which I fell in love with and 'STOLE'

Re: mommie's little girl dance
I danced with my mom to 'You and me against the world'. She always says that the song reminds her of me. It was a surprise to her at the wedding and she loved it.

Re: mommie's little girl dance
I just thought of this song. My mom used to sing it to me when I was little.
Que, Sera Sera
When I was just a little girl I asked my mother, what will I be Will I be pretty, will I be rich Here's what she said to me. CHORUS Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not ours to see Que Sera, Sera What will be, will be. When I was young, I fell in love I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead Will we have rainbows, day after day Here's what my sweetheart said. Hey! what're you gonna say? Hey! What're you gonna say? CHORUS (2x) Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not ours to see What will be, will be. Que sera, sera Now I have children of my own They ask their mother, what will I be Will I be handsome, will I be rich I tell them tenderly. CHORUS Que Sera, Sera, Whatever will be, will be The future's not ours to see Que Sera, Sera What will be, will be.
