Are you stuck on picking out a song for your parent dance? You want something that fits your relationship…something different…but not too different?
A few tips before you start beating your head against the wall in frustration over finding the “perfect” parent dance song:
- Ask your mom or dad if they have a particular song in mind. If they come up with a song that’s special for them, it’s one less thing you have to worry about. Job done!
- Think back to your childhood. Is there any song or artist who makes you think of your dad? Does he have a favorite singer? If so, this could point you to the right song for your parent dance together.
- Don’t worry about the lyrics too much. (Most people don’t listen that close anyway.) If you find a song that’s meaningful to you, who cares if it’s an “official” parent dance song. You and your dad will get it.
- If you do choose a less traditional song for your parent dance, ask your entertainer to provide a simple explanation for your audience. For example, “Jennifer picked out ‘You Are My Sunshine’ for her special dance with her father because he sang it to her when she was a little girl.” Instantly an unusual parent dance choice becomes perfect.
Stay tuned for my favorite Parent Dance songs of 2008 over the next couple days.
