Know of any? I don't want the traditional ones. My dad is a former hippie who is very laid back.

We're going to do Father & Daughter by Paul Simon. My dad was a huge Simon & Garfunkel fan & he loves his solo work too, so it only seemed natural

Re: Upbeat songs for father/ daughter dance
this isnt upbeat, but we're using Turn Around by the Kingston Trio. It's a folk song from the 60s.

Re: Upbeat songs for father/ daughter dance
I used 'Arms wide open' by Creed.
My dad is kind of like a hippy as well and I let him pick out the song, I was a bit hesitant at first, but it is really nice, I get teary eyed now everytime i here it.

Jess -
My dad is VERY much the same thing... I was named Jessica after the Allman Brothers song of the same name....
I'm contemplating walking up the aisle to Jessica and i don't know what to dance with him either... ask his opinion maybe...his favorite song might be great! The words aren't what matter, it's the heart of it all :)
