Sorry if you're seeing this twice, I accidentally posted in the digital music section but think it's better suited here...

Any suggestions for some good background music to a home movie of my son? I'm putting together all the footage from his 1st year and really like the feel of Garageband's demos "Glide" and "Daydream" but need more like them. Thanks!

"American Beauty" does have some great song on it.

I can't think of what I use off the top of my head, but I did make a playlist in iTunes strictly for songs I use over home movies. I'll have to take a look at that when I get home tonight.

I have a couple of songs in my mind. One is a rather old song by Paul Anka called Times Of Your Life which dates back to my high school days. Here is the lyrics:

Times Of Your Life by Paul Anka

Good morning, yesterday
You wake up and time has slipped away
And suddenly it's hard to find
The memories you left behind
Remember, do you remember?

The laughter and the tears
The shadows of misty yesteryears
The good times and the bad you've seen
And all the others in between
Remember, do you remember
The times of your life? (do you remember?)

Reach out for the joy and the sorrow
Put them away in your mind
The mem'ries are time that you borrow
To spend when you get to tomorrow

Here comes the saddest part (comes the saddest part)
The seasons are passing one by one
So gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?

Gather moments while you may
Collect the dreams you dream today
Remember, will you remember
The times of your life?

Of your life
Of your life
Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life?

FADE

Do you remember, baby
Do you remember the times of your life?

The second one is really one of my favorites called Forever Young (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7CuJ8cR9sg) by Alphaville.
