    What is your theme? I did a black love song. For mine, I chose the sweetest love by Robin Thicke because it was a little upbeat but not too much. For our love story. I chose "nothing even matters" by Lauren Hill and D'Angelo. Chose songs that you and Fi love!

    Thanks but ha! Fi loves jazz and my taste in music changes almost on a daily basis... and we don't have a theme. :(I like your songs selections though!

    Have FI choose a song. I asked my now husband he came up with those songs off the top of his head. Make sure it is something that you guys will immediately recognize for years to come. I can't help you with the jazz thing girl.

    I'm all for "Beautiful Surprise" by India Arie. The words seem to take u down memory lane. I used it as a cover for the intro part of my DVD. I like everything about the song...music, words, length (not really long). It's like yesterday I didn't even know your name Now today You're always on my mind I never could have predicted that I'd feel this way You are beautiful surprise Intoxicated every time I hear your voice You've got me on a natural high It's almost like I didn't even have a choice You are a beautiful surprise Whatever it is you came to teach me I am here to learn it cause I believe that we are written in the stars I don't know what the future holds But I'm living in the moment And I'm thankful for the man that you are, you are, you are You are everything I ask for in my prayers So I know my angels brought you to my life Your energy is healing to my soul You are a beautiful surprise You are an inspiration to my life You are the reason why I smile You are a beautiful surprise

    This is my first time posting to this board so HI LADIES!! If your're looking for a great jazz song try In a Sentimental Mood by Duke Ellington and John Coltrane.  It's from the Love Jones soundtrack and one of my favorite songs, a good mix between seductive and sweet.~Lo

    I love Beautiful Surprise by India Arie.  I was going to recommend Sentimental Mood also, but Key Lolo beat me to it.  BTW, welcome to the board Key-lolo.  A few more good choices are Flamenco Sketches by Miles Davis, Naima by John Coltrane, and My Favorite Things by John Coltrane (If you want something a bit more upbeat).
