Help with senior song for softball video

[default]

My DH has done the video for our DD ,H.S. softball team since 7th grade,and has done an awsome job. Now shes a senior it`s time to make her and her fellow seniors video. I have 3 songs i am thinking fit ...
Kelly Clarkston.........Break Away
Rascal Flatts...........My wish for you
Trace Atkins............You`re going to miss this
Does anyone have a favorite or maybe a different suggestion......

We also make the video for our high school team. This year there will be enough seniors that we can use two songs instead of one. I will definitely be crying while making the video this year.

Van Halen...."Happy Trails"

Roy Rogers Happy Trails

nearly every Rocky Soundtrack song... it fits any video and keeps the blood pumping

Girls, Girls, Girls .... Motley Crue

Okay, then how about (sorry, "old school" I know) .....

Eye of the Tiger
Time of My Life
We Will Rock You / We Are the Champions
Rock you like A Hurricane

Van Halen....."Right Now"

I've done some Senior videos and My Wish for You is always at the beginning and Rascal Flats Take Me There is mixed in. Check out Sara McGlocklin's - I will Remember You.

I guarentee that if you use Sara's song with the Senior night onfield ceremony at the end, even the manliest man will struggle watching his daughters last HS game to that song.

I struggled making my DD's Senior softball video so I feel it is fair for every father to feel the pain in a good way, I don't want to be selfish, Check out Sara.

Hey BigGuy,

You re making me cry already, and it is still 3+ years away from me (frosh dd) ... stop it! Man, oh man, what is it about a dad and dd ...... Okay, I am going to try to get back to just enjoying my next 3+ years. But, after reading your post I am now thinking about ....

Stay - by Jackson Browne ... "ohhhh, won't you stay ... just a little bit LONGER ..."

I am going to ball my eyes out, I know it already (sigh). Good luck to this year's seniors, good remembrances, give it your all, and blessings for beyond.

LOL, wgman,

When it comes to most situations I can hang in there, but with dd ... not so much.

Wife asks for money for concessions? ... what, you don't know where the bank is honey (FOOL!)?!?

Sons ask for money for concessions? ... when are you gonna get a job, ... FOOL!

Dog has that whiny hungry look? ... go catch something lazy mutt, "go get your wolf on!" ... FOOL!

dd asks for money for concessions? ... hand is already reaching while she is still 20 feet away, approaching, no request even neded (just the look).

Can there be a "Man Card Lite" .... for we fools that just can't defend ourselves from dd?

.... Sorry for perpetuating the hijack, majerpaine. ;&

I like "Load up the Bases" by Whiskey Falls - not the Boston Red Sox version but the original

I do one for the entire Varsity team every year so have had to try to find a ton of songs that work.

Hey BigGuy,

You re making me cry already, and it is still 3+ years away from me (frosh dd) ... stop it! Man, oh man, what is it about a dad and dd ...... Okay, I am going to try to get back to just enjoying my next 3+ years. But, after reading your post I am now thinking about ....

Pickledad,

Yes, my mancard was revoked, I'm 6'3' and 280 and my heart was dragging behind me walking to the field on Senior nite but then the third base walk is manditory, been with DD on the field since age 5. Enjoy the good times and don't take it so seriously that it becomes miserable.

Another man test is to play that Senior video at the graduation party and have dad in the room with a whole bunch of people, I failed again, my mancard was sent back in earlier so I had to defend myself with a brown substance mixed in coke.

Alot of good songs coming out and not wanting to hijack this thread, just showing the importance of putting alot of time into this video and making it priceless.
