What is your father-daughter dance song?

I can't even begin to pick a song! And I'm pretty clueless about the first dance and entrance songs too, so if you have decided already please share!! I'm so bad at making decisions!

    My dad and I are the big Disney fans in the family, sooooo we're doing a sort of mashup with Butterfly Kisses then some of the soundtrack from Wishes (Magic Kingdom firework show) at the end.

    Landslide, by Fleetwood Mac. We're probably going to be ugly crying by the end of it, but it holds a Very special place in our hearts (when I was going through my teenie bopper phase, it would come on the radio and Dad would scream "LISTEN TO THIS!! THIS IS GOOD MUSIC!!!")

    My father daughter dance will be Butterfly Kisses. We always danced to it at father-daughter dances when I was a kid and it just makes sense. I will definitely cry though. Lol

    I'm between songs for our father/daughter dance.. might be "one little christmas tree" by Stevie Wonder because I skated to that in a Christmas show and it was my dad's favorite.. or "the rainbow connection" yup from the muppets! love that song!

    our bridal party is being introduced to the theme from Sunday night football (we are huge football fans) and thought this would be a fun way to introduce everyone and get people pumped up

    My dad and I are dancing to James Taylor's version of "How Sweet it Is To Be Loved By You".

    FH and I are going to do our first dance to a cover of "From Here To The Moon and Back" that a good friend of ours will sing live.

    I am so totally tempted to do Girls Just Wanna Have Fun for our father daughter dance and do something wild, because oddly enough that song has so many great memories tied to it for my dad and I (long story lol)

    But we are doing My Little Girl because that's always kinda been his song to me.

    We finally decided today! Dad wanted to show off his waltz skills with something in 3/4 or 6/8 time, and I didn't want something I had heard at recent weddings, so we're going with the stylings of Kermit the Frog with the Rainbow Connection! Here are others I lobbied for:

    Find Love - Clem Snide

    Daughter - Loudon Wainwright III

    That's How Strong My Love Is - Otis Redding

    Thank You - Led Zepplin

    She's a Rainbow - Rolling Stones

    'Til There Was You - The Beatles

    Charmed Life - Divine Comedy

    Father and Daughter - Paul Simon

    I haven't picked a father - daughter song yet, so thanks for the thread! Lots of great ideas here! Our first dance will be "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz, and our entrance is "Ho, Hey" by the Lumineers.

    Our father/daughter dances is "Daddy, Dance with Me" with my biological father and I can't remember the other one off hand but that one will be with my step-father. Our first dance is "I Don't Dance" by Lee Brice.

    I'm going to use Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman

    Though My Wish by Rascall Flatts was a close second.

    Definitely go to the music section of the wedding wire website. I found it helpful in picking my songs.

    It was planned to dance with my father to "the way you look tonight by Frank Sinatra. However, he passed about a month ago. Instead, I will be dancing with my sister to "spice up your life by the spice girls". We will be dancing like they did in Spice World. First dance with FH will be "Close your eyes by Michael Buble".
