Song ideas for video of first year

megswen · October 2014

I'm making a video of all the little videos I've recorded of my babe in the last year, and we'll be playing it at his birthday party. Does anyone have any song recommendations that I can put with it? I want it to be happy and upbeat, and possibly be about growing up or something like that. I've got absolutely nothing. Any ideas?

We chose "Gracie" by Ben Folds but that's no help because you have a little man, I'll keep my ear out!

There's a Dixie chicks song that has been playing on my pandora called "Godspeed (sweet dreams)" it's a lullaby that I sing to LO at night...

They also have a song called Lullaby which is so sweet

Now I'm thinking I need a slide show

I wasn't even planning one!!

We plan to use Sweet Disposition by The Temper Trap and the acoustic version of Yeah Yeah Yeah's Little Shadow.

We are using:

You Are My Sunshine (Emily Mitchell)
Quiet (Jason Mraz)
Home (Phillip Phillips)

Oh I thought of another... "Smile" by uncle C(K)racker.

That one is actually my dad's ringtone for my sister and I

@Soozerella Which one? If you say Dream Operator I'll die. Pete and I love that song.

What program do you use for the music/slideshow? I even work for a technology company and this baffles me $:\$ ">

@JodiAnn25‌
I LOVE "The Luckiest" because lyrics! I can never get through it without balling!

@BrittAnnie19‌
DAMN! I know who I'll be asking the next time I'm searching for a perfect song!

@Soozerella‌, @cagoldi‌ and @Yez9‌
You three have the best taste, "Naive Melody" will forever be in my top favorites!

megswen · October 2014

You guys are great! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Time to have a little listening party over here. @Yez9‌ I've never even heard that Talking Heads song, but I am loving it! So fitting!

@kellythomas0122‌ I use iMovie. It's been a while since I've made a video (like over a year) so we'll see how it goes!

@housewifehair‌ we had a dance party in the hotel room the other day and played that song! Love it.

Have you seen Lars and the Real Girl? It's on the soundtrack and just fits so perfectly. It's a cute movie.

I'm pretty sure I would be a good asset to that dance party with that song playing! I have not seen Lars and the Real Girl but considering we have the same taste and you liked it, it's now on my list!

@Soozerella‌
I knew I liked you! Such a great song choice!

Rick Roll your entire party.

I was searching for this too because I came across a great song for the boys. It's a little cheesy but really sweet. It's called Hourglass by Mindy Gledhill.

So @Soozerella‌ last night Pete told me we're going to use This Must Be The Place. I didn't even tell him about this discussion, he just picked it because A danced to it earlier in the week.
