Who is good at song choices and interpretation?

I am trying to pick a song to dance with my dad to. He loves Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones, & Elvis.

Under planning - songs - they have Landside by Fleetwood Mac. I am assuming this song is appropriate since it is listed as a father & daughter song...any thoughts?


Lyrics: Landslide - Fleetwood Mac
I took my love, I took it down
Climbed a mountain and I turned around
I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
'Till the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I've been afraid of changing
'Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Even children get older
And I'm getting older too

Oh, take my love, take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down

If you see my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide will bring it down

I like Landslide but I dont know what shes talking about. How about "The wonder of you" from Elvis. I danced with my Brother to that.

"The Wonder of You" will be our last song of the night. I LOVE that!!!


How about "Memories" by Elvis... I was thinking of dancing to that with my mom:

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine

Quiet thoughts come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories,
Sweet memories

Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilight trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you

Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine,
Memories, memories, sweet memories

landslide is the song my dad and i danced to, so of course i say go with it!!
my first memory is sitting on the living room floor with my dad listening to fleetwood mac records... and weve been to see them in concert together twice... so it had to be this for us!
i think shes just talking about getting older and things changing, but shes saying " take my love" because it will always be there... at least thats how i see it! good luck!

Stevie Nicks wrote that song to her Dad (read an interveiw with her), so I'd say very appropriate.

That's true! In the last live version of the song she sang she even says something like "this for you Dad"

Re: Who is good at song choices and interpretation?

I was at a wedding where the bride & her father danced to that song. It was really very beautiful & I've always liked that song ever since. I don't think there was a dry eye in the house...even her stoic father was teary LOL.
