Originally Posted By Walter Elias Well, what comes to my mind right now is a song that has strong meaning to me. It is the Disney song, "Love is a Song" from Bambi. It always makes me think of my daughter when she was about 4-5 years old. She loved to dress up as a princess. She would have a gown on, plastic jewelry, miss-matched shoes, and a bent tiara--and she was the most beautiful princess in all the world!

Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove Those are two beautiful answers. I'm not being difficult or disingenous when I say that it would have to be a least one huge cd full of songs to fully describe me. Louis' version of "What a Wonderful World" makes me think of the 4th of July fireworks here in Phoenix (they do a set of them to his song) and that makes me think of the national anthem. So, just for today, at this moment in time, disregarding the oodles of songs that hold tender spots in my heart and soul, I will say: The Star-Spangled Banner and America the Beautiful. *special shout-out to everyone else here from other nations. Watching the Olympics and listening to everyone's national anthems is just plain heart-warming. **extra special shout-out to our military families today. xoxo

Great song!

Originally Posted By Shiva STiL, I love your choices. There are so many good ones. One that has always spoken to me is "To Sir With Love". I won't go into details but there are a lot of parallels between that movie and my own life and I am very greatful for that one teacher who earned my respect and made such a big difference in my life.

Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove <<"To Sir With Love">> Great movie; great song. I thought LuLu was sooooo cool. (Just like LP's LuLu) Okay. Here's a quintessential song for me: it will be in my top five for sure..."Somewhere Over The Rainbow". "If happy little bluebirds fly Beyond the rainbow Why, oh why can't I?"

Originally Posted By LadyKluck I have two - oddly enough both were in our wedding. My first is "when you wish upon a star". I walked down the aisle to this at my wedding with my mom and my dad both.

I thought it would be a really great tribute to my mom to play that same song while she walked me down the aisle. My other favorite was our first dance song - its called Unloved by Brooks and Dunn. I know its sounds like a bad song - but it's actually meaning that you'll never be unloved, not that you are unloved! (Ironman should appreciate this...) I know you know Just how it goes when it goes And how it feels To be lost and left alone on your own And what it's like To give all you got and have to stand and watch it As it walks away So everyone deserves a chance to live and learn From mistakes That we make and hearts that break and bridges burn Starting now From this moment on nothing's gonna go wrong Love is here to stay You'll never be without You'll always have enough When you're in my arms You'll never go unloved As long as there is time And for all of it to come No matter where you go I want you to know You'll never be unloved So in this life we lead Some things are guaranteed You can count on the fact that hearts won't act responsibly Now and then Comes a love that's heaven sent and meant to be So baby look at me You'll never be without You'll always have enough When you're in my arms You'll never go unloved As long as there is time And for all of it to come No matter where you go I want you to know You'll never be unloved You'll never be without You'll always have enough When you're in my arms You'll never go unloved As long as there is time And for all of it to come No matter where you go I want you to know You'll never be unloved
