Song for a "Brother/ Sister" dance in lieu of Father/Daughter - Help! I'm running out of time.

Hey ladies,

So I'm trying to get the last of our music finalized. My FH is going to do a dance with his mom at the reception. My father passed away several years ago, and my grandpa danced with my sister at her wedding, but he's also passed away a couple of years ago - so I was thinking of having my brother dance with me at the wedding. The problem is finding an appropriate song.

All I've come up with so far is Eva Cassidy's version of "Time after Time" and I'm not sure if that is the best song, but it's a beautiful version of the song and it sort of works...but does anyone have any other suggestions?

Oh, and I don't really care for country music....

Any suggestions are very much appreciated. Thanks!!

Yeah, see...these are all country bands. Not my taste. That's why I'm having trouble I think. LOL

THANKS Jamie!! I think the Tom Petty one will definitely work. Not as sad as the Eva Cassidy song. I don't want to bum people out. lol Plus, as I was playing it on Youtube, FH shouted from the other room "Hey, I love that song!"

Guess that works for me!

Thanks ladies. I've been working on wedding stuff ALL DAY LONG. My brain is mush.
