Groom/Mom song help needed

[Acklander]

Hi all-

My DS is getting married next month and I'm supposed to be coming up with a list of possible songs for the groom/mom dance. Currently the only thing I've got for the list is Faith Hill with "There You'll Be". To be honest, I'm not the mushy, super sweet type person. When I got married I eloped, I consider "Freebird" to be a love song, and I make throw up faces (much to dh's amusement) whenever he gives me a romantic card or flowers. My family teases me ruthlessly about the fact that I don't have a romantic bone in my body and they are placing bets that I won't be able to come up with a decent list of choices for Groom/Mom songs. I hate to admit defeat so any and all suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!!!!

One I have heard at weddings before and have had friends use for the non-super romantic ones is the "wedding song" by peter, paul and mary. I'm pretty sure that if my boyfriend and I ever get married he will use something like this.

It''s not overly romantic and since I will most likely have to beat him into these things, this probably would be a compromise.

I found a lot of my songs by listening to them on youtube.com

this one may be too mushy or you might not like the voice....but the song is sooo sweet

The second song is the full version I believe, so you have to wait about a minute for the singing to come in
just my 2 cents

Boy 2 Men has a nice song its like THE mother son song, but then you can show up your family that you picked a song!

Showing my age, but .... Paul Simon's "Love me like a rock"... not mushy, just fun.

My father/daughter song was You Got A Friend In Me from Toy Story, and the Mother/Son song was Mama's Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys by Willie Nelson and Wayland Jennings.

Neither of us were wanting a mushy song to dance with our parents with. Those type of songs was nothing like are relationship with our parents. DH picked a song that meant something to them when he was a kid. You don't have to pick a song just because it has a wedding and/or mom theme to it. It can be something that you to liked to listen to when he was little. Just a thought.
