Not sure if it qualifies as non-sappy

pjcas18 : 12/7/2018 10:44 pm : link

but the last few times I did this was years ago but I used Rush - Time Stand Still.

I would find the perfect picture to be placed right when Geddy Lees says for the firs time "...freeze this moment a little bit longer..."

I made the videos for my wife, not the kids though.

I still watch the videos, my oldest are 16 now and I still think they're perfect.

Earth Angel...a little adult but the lyrics carry the sentiment.

Talking Heads was the first thing to pop into my head.

House at Pooh Corner

Loggins & Messina

Happy by Pharrell?

FranknWeezer : 12/8/2018 12:19 am : link

My kids loved that song for quite a while. Good luck!

How about...

From the Talking Heads...
Stay Up Late - ( New Window )

For a two year old?

johnnyb : 12/8/2018 8:40 am : link

That is tough. For my older kids Forever Young and Good Riddance did the trick.

Forever Young

I'm talking about the Dylan song.

Though I guess that fails the "upbeat" requirement. *grin*

The Avette Brother�s.

A father�s first spring? Not cheery enough maybe? Math also doesnmt quite work out....

Going way way back...

Old Professor : 12/8/2018 9:26 am : link

But very appropriate for a very young girl is the Alphabet Song (A your adorable, B your so beautiful...). The song proves my handle.

Getting Better by The Beatles

from Sgt Peppers.

Half of Paul McCartney/Wings songs would fit here.

Your handle makes me think of East Bound and Down.

Pretty much

Coach Red Beaulieu : 12/8/2018 10:10 am : link

Anything Jackson 5 would be appropriate.

Thanks all for the advice

ImThatGuy : 12/8/2018 10:24 am : link

It's not really a slideshow for the 2 year old, more for us so avoiding baby type songs. Will take a look at some of the suggestions. Anything else?

Found another one for when my kids turned 5

pjcas18 : 12/8/2018 11:19 am : link

and I used Joan Jett's version of the Mary Tyler Moore theme song. Came out great.

Green day.....Time of your life
