My wedding is a month away and I've still not found a song for the mother/son wedding dance. I am determined to get at least 1 PJ song in my wedding and this dance is where i want it. One song that was suggested was "Elderly Woman". I'm hoping to get some more suggestions from the community!

    I'm getting married in January, and I'm dancing with my mom to "Forever Young" by Bob Dylan (the slow album version) While it's not a PJ song, it does have a connection since Eddie and PJ have played it in the past. I'd probably go with an EV or PJ version if there was a high quality one I really liked more than Dylan's original, but I haven't come across one yet. I'll have other PJ/EV songs playing throughout the night including a couple live versions from the MSG show me and my fiance were at in 2010, so mom is going to have to settle for Dylan :D

    Good luck in your search and congrats to you!

    I'm a wed photographer and the wedding I'm shooting this weekend has my first official PJ bride/groom first dance, Just Breathe. Just my opinion, Just Breathe is not the best choice for bride/groom, but it's a FAR BETTER choice for a mother/son or father/daughter dance than EWBTCIAST. Wishlist is pretty good too.

    you were always an angel when you slept ...


    "Around The Bend"

    i'm wishing you a-well
    mind at peace within your cell
    covers up, i cast you off
    i'll be watching as you breathe
    i lie still, you move
    i send you off around the bend
    i hold your head deep in my arms
    my fingertips they close your eyes
    off you dream, my little child
    there's a sun around the bend (yes)
    there's a sun around the bend
    all the evenings close like this
    all these moments that i've missed
    please forgive me, won't you, dear?
    please forgive and let me share...
    with you around the bend
    you're an angel when you sleep
    how i want your soul to keep
    on and on around the bend

    congratulations... may all your dreams come true!
