Mother/Son dance - song suggestions

Loopyseven

My brother is getting married next weekend (YAY!) and he asked me today if I had any recommendations for a song to use for the mother/son dance.  Since FI and I aren't doing any dances besides ours it's not something I even thought about.  I suggested "I Hope you Dance" by Martina McBride but he didn't like that.  He said all the DJ's suggestions of popular songs for that dance "suck", so he's looking for something different.

Hit me with some suggestions to give back to him - please!

We're doing a combined father/daughter mother/son, and the top contender is this:

Oooh.. Sarah, I love that version of that song .

Mrs Jesse - I like the Rascal Flats song.. 

I'm not entirely sure what he's looking for.  He's driving from TX to WI today to get home so his cell coverage is a little spotty in the middle of nowhere and we got cut off..

What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong is a popular choice.

H and his mom danced to James Taylor's "Shower the People."

Although now that I'm reading the lyrics it probably wasn't the best song. I think everyone was just listening to the chorus when they picked it.

FI is dancing with his mom to Simple Man, either the Lynyrd Skynyrd or the Shinedown version.

We love country music, so my DH and his mom danced to Trace Adkins "Then They Do" at our wedding.

My husband and MIL danced to The Perfect Fan, by The Backstreet Boys. Kinda cheesy if you know who it's by, but the song was written about moms and is really touching.
