Songs For Combined Mother/Son & Father/Daughter Dance

Happy Hump Day Ladies!!

My FI and I have agreed on doing a combined mother/son and father/daughter dance at the reception to cut time. The only problem is that I can find a million mother/son songs and a bazillion father/daughter songs but finding a combined song is REALLY hard!!!\

Does anyone have any ideas? It's probably good to mention that FI has a severe aversion to all things country....

TIA

You probably aren't going to find something specific for mother/son/father/daughter combined, but something broad like this may fit a lot better.

We're doing the same thing, and I'm having the same problem!  Though, his mom really likes "It's a Wonderful World" by Louie Armstrong, so if my dad is fine with it, we may just use that.

Without knowing what kind of music you two like, this is a bit of a shot in the dark. I tried to come up with a variety though, so hopefully this helps:

"You are the sunshine of my life" - Stevie Wonder
"Unforgettable" - Nat King/Natalie Cole
"You're the inspiration" - Chicago
"Because you loved me" - Celine Dion
"In my life" - Beatles
"I'll be" - Edwin McCain
"Somewhere over the rainbow" - Judy Garland (or any remake)

Sam Cooke - "Nothing can ever change this love"

Great suggestions!  I'm seeing both my dad and his mom this weekend, I'll see what they think. Thanks for posting this question, Amanda!

If you like country, there's "Then they do" by Trace Adkins. FI is using this for his mother/son dance, but it was used as a song for a combination father/daughter/mother/son dance at a wedding we went to.
