    Default Song for a slideshow- need ideas!

    I'm doing a slideshow for my husband, who is getting ready to go to Iraq. I want to put it to music, but I'm at a loss for a song that isn't too sappy but also is a nice all around I love you I miss you (no break up songs though). I plan on giving this to him for Thanksgiving. I am working on a slideshow that includes pictures of our kids, funny moments, candid shots, wedding pictures, etc....

    Any ideas???

    Thanks so much, and, I'd be happy to post a link to the slideshow when I'm finished so you can all see my masterpiece!

    G: How long do you want the slideshow to be? How 80's do you want the tunes?

    It doesn't matter how 80's or anything, I just want a really good song to capture everything I'm putting in this slideshow.. I did have Love Song on my list, but damn! Its a long song.. and that means lots of pictures!

    I'd kinda like something a bit more modern, but I keep drawing a blank.. I keep thinking about the Aerosmith song from Armageddon??? But I can't remember the title.. so any ideas, throw them all at me..

    I have been humming that GTR song to myself since that first post. God damn you. Let me work on my falsetto.

    When The Heart Rules The Mind

    Mother protect me, protect me from myself
    Lately I can't tell, who really are my friends
    Burning the candle, the candle at both ends
    Through crowds, across floors
    Each night I just pretend

    When the heart rules the mind
    One look and love is blind
    When you want the dream to last
    Take a chance forget the past

    Watching the actor, that takes the stage by storm
    Stealing the limelight, while we're in the wings
    Sometimes the hero, must play the underdog
    But I don't feel the same
    I must have everything

    When the heart rules the mind
    One look and love is blind
    When you want the dream to last
    Take a chance forget the past

    Seasons will change
    You must move on
    Follow your dream

    Ah what's not to love? Of course I'm not suprised that you know the words,we're gettin old Chris.

    Ok, I've thought about the Three doors down, "without you" song, but it makes me cry...


    So, let me ask if you all think this is cheesy-

    I play piano, I took 13 years, 4 of those classical, we don't have a piano yet, but, my aunt does, so i was thinking of going home, brushing up on a piece that I played in a recital, going to a recording studio, and recording it.. he's only heard me play once, and he is saving to get me a piano... its a bit personal... it might make him think that I'm dropping a hint (which I'm not), the one and only time he heard me play was when we were with my dad and my dad begged me to play something for him.. so I did.. it was at our wedding.. ever since, my husband keeps telling me I'm getting you a piano the next time I deploy and make extra money...

    So... what about that? Guys? i'm still tossing ideas around.. I've got awhile.. but, mainly guys here, if your wife/girlfriend were to do that, would you take it as something as dropping a hint or would you see how much love/thought was put into it???

    I'd see the love and thought went into it.
