What are some good songs to use for a picture video? The pictures are of Kate, and I am making the video for my husband for father's day. I made him one last year too and have used the following songs in the one from last year:
Sweet Pea - Amos Lee
Fathers and Daughters - Paul Simon
1,2,3,4 I Love You - Plain White T's
Somewhere Over the Rainbow - Isreal Kamakaiwo'ole
Smile - Uncle Kracker
Everything - Michael Buble
I really like songs that are sappy, but not too slow. Some of my thoughts are :
Jack Johnson - Better Together
David Gray - You're the One I Love
Any other ideas??? Thanks!
