Here are a few that I love to perform and sing on stage...
1- MY WAY - Frank Sinatra, lyrics say it all very inspirational to the way I approach performing music all these years.
2- I'LL BE LOVING YOU ALWAYS -
Irving Berlin 1925, Something my wife said to me before we were married & she was so right.

Willie Nelson, lyrics made me realize it was time to Grow Up & be a man!
4- I JUST CALLED TO SAY I LOVE YOU -
Stevie Wonder, A song my daughter sang to me when she was 2 years old. Every time I play it I hear her voice in my head singing to Daddy.
5- Daddy's Little Girl - recorded by The Mills Brothers in 1950....Singing these lyrics I just can't get thru this song on stage or at a Wedding, etc, when the father dances with his daughter without a tear in my eye.
There are many more but these are my top 5.
