i need a song!!?

Question

my sisters 30th birthday is coming up and as a present, i wanted to make her a slideshow of photos of her kids, and then burn it onto dvd. i have almost finished the slideshow but im not sure what song to have playing in the background, i was using "Pretty Baby" by Vanessa Carlton but im not so sure anymore. any song suggestions? something sentimental / or just a nice slow song?

Answer 1

nickleback's Photograph song
the Rainbow Connection by Kermit the frog- a must for memory slides
Enya- Only time but that is depressing and I dont know if you wanted it to be up lifting
- Somewhere over the rainbow
Karen Carpenter- I cant think of the name but it's where she sings "Why do blue birds appear". something like that. hope that helps

Answer 2

I really like "I hope you dance" by Leanne Womack or "Do it anyway" by Martina McBride.

OR how about "My next 30 years" by Tim McGraw??? That's a great song!

Artist: Tim McGraw
Title: My Next 30 Years
Album: N/A


I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years

My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here
In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years

My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here ,In my next thirty years

In my next thirty years

Answer 5

good riddance (time of your life) by Green Day

sounds exactly like what you're looking for. very sentimental with guitars and violins lightly strumming in the background.

here are the lyrics:

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

(music break)

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
