Can you please help me choose a song????
I need a song to put on a slideshow for my nephew's high school graduation. His mom died 3 years ago and I need a touching song to go with pictures of her. I'm also doing a "family" slideshow with pictures of our entire family. Got any ideas for songs to include? Please no religious songs. Sorry & thanks for your help!

Hi Mary,
I have a song that is simply beautiful and perfect for the occasion.
Josh Groban- You Raise Me Up
I found it on you tube and becasue Yahoo isn't allowing me to post this, I will email it to you instead
What you are doing is simply beautiful.

The best one i feel is: My Wish-by Rascal Flatts, i work at a Head Start center for kids and we did a slide show for their graduation, and included pics of the kids, as well as high school students who were head start kids when they were young. The words to the song fit perfectly for a graduation. Some of the lyrics are:
My wish for you, is that this life becomes
all that you want it to, your dreams stay big,
your worries stay small,
you never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while your out there gettin were your gettin to,
i hope you know somebody loves you,
and wants the same things too,
yeah this,
is my wish...
ITS THE BEST SONG EVER!!! LOL

Otherside by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (although that might be a bit sad, you might wanna follow it with the Zephyr Song by the same artist)
'Snow ( (Hey Oh))', 'I Could Die For You', 'Dosed', 'Under the Bridge', 'Desecration Smile' by the Red Hot Chili Peppers
'My Heart Will Go On', Whitney Housten maybe
'Vermillion Part II' by Slipknot (don't be put off by the artist)
'Everytime' by Britney Spears
'Time of Your Life' if you want to appeal to him, i forget the artist though
'How to Save a Life' or 'Over My Head (Cable Cars)' by The Fray
'Bittersweet Symphony' by The Verve
'Rewind' or 'Last Request' by Paolo Nutini
Sorry not all of them are great, they're just all nice songs.

I think the perfect song and you can see and hear on you tube is Hold Me In Your Arms by Rick Astley. He ends up hugging in video mom, grandpa,sister, wife, in laws, etc. Touching song and easy to get slide show pictures to go with that type of song. Good luck.

Good Mother by Jane Arden ( Canadian singer)
I've got money in my pocket,
I like the color of my hair.
I've got a friend who loves me,
Got a house, I've got a car.
I've got a good mother,
and her voice is what keeps me here.
Feet on ground,
Heart in hand,
Facing forward,
Be yourself.
I've never wanted anything.
No I've, no I've, I've never wanted anything,
so bad..(so bad).
Cardboard masks of all the people I've been
Thrown out, with all the rusted, tangled
dented God Damned miseries!!
You could say I'm hard to hold,
But if you knew me you'd know,
I've got a good father,
And his strength is what makes me cry.
Feet on ground,
Heart in hand,
Facing forward,
Be yourself.
I've never wanted anything,
No I've, no I've, I've never
wanted anything so bad..(so bad).

i miss you by miley cyrus
"I Miss You"
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms
I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me
[CHORUS:]
I miss you
I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know
I miss you, sha la la la la
I miss you
You used to call me your dreamer
And now I'm living out my dream
Oh how I wish you could see
Everything that's happening for me
I'm thinking back on the past
It's true that time is flying by too fast
[CHORUS]
I know you're in a better place, yeah
But I wish that I could see your face, oh
I know you're where you need to be
Even though it's not here with me
[CHORUS x2]
