I am trying to pick a song to dance with my dad to. He loves Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones, & Elvis.
Under planning - songs - they have Landside by Fleetwood Mac. I am assuming this song is appropriate since it is listed as a father & daughter song...any thoughts?
Lyrics: Landslide - Fleetwood Mac I took my love, I took it down Climbed a mountain and I turned around I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills 'Till the landslide brought me down
Oh, mirror in the sky What is love Can the child within my heart rise above Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides Can I handle the seasons of my life
Well, I've been afraid of changing 'Cause I've built my life around you But time makes you bolder Even children get older And I'm getting older too
Oh, take my love, take it down Climb a mountain and turn around If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well the landslide will bring it down
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills Well the landslide will bring it down

I like Landslide but I dont know what shes talking about. How about 'The wonder of you' from Elvis. I danced with my Brother to that.

'The Wonder of You' will be our last song of the night. I LOVE that!!!
How about 'Memories' by Elvis... I was thinking of dancing to that with my mom:
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine
Quiet thoughts come floating down And settle softly to the ground Like golden autumn leaves around my feet I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories, Sweet memories
Of holding hands and red bouquets And twilight trimmed in purple haze And laughing eyes and simple ways And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine, Memories, memories, sweet memories

landslide is the song my dad and i danced to, so of course i say go with it!! my first memory is sitting on the living room floor with my dad listening to fleetwood mac records... and weve been to see them in concert together twice... so it had to be this for us! i think shes just talking about getting older and things changing, but shes saying ' take my love' because it will always be there... at least thats how i see it! good luck!

Stevie Nicks wrote that song to her Dad (read an interveiw with her), so I'd say very appropriate.

That's true! In the last live version of the song she sang she even says something like 'this for you Dad'

I was at a wedding where the bride & her father danced to that song. It was really very beautiful & I've always liked that song ever since. I don't think there was a dry eye in the house...even her stoic father was teary LOL.
