Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dance song??

I am trying to find a good song for a combined Father/Daughter and Mother/Son dance. My FI wants to skip the Mother/Son if we do the separately but his mom has helped so much in the planning I would like to give her a chance in the "spotlight". Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    My dad and I are doing "Here Comes the Sun" by the beatles, And my FI and FMIL are doing "What a Wonderful World"...neither are gender specific but both classics! Good luck!

    If you're okay with country, "My Wish" by Rascall Flatts and "I Hope You Dance" by Leanne Womack are both good, and not really gender specific. I do like "What A Wonderful World", plus it's short for your FI.

    My dad and I are dancing to Sinatra's "I've got the world on a string" and my future husband and his mom are gonna join in towards the end. I wanted an upbeat song about love to get the dance floor going.

    Israel Kamakawiwo'ole version of "Somewhere over the rainbow" is a good song too. My FI and his mom are dancing to that one...my dad and I are dancing to the Tony Bennett version of "The Way You Look Tonight."

    We danced to "I  Hope You Dance" by Leann Womack. It is a beautiful song.

    Always be Your Baby by Natalie Grant is a beautiful father/daughter song. I'll be using for my reception.
