<p>sseamom—are there now photo books that play music? I tend to stick with what I know and have been using My Publisher albums for the past eight years, so haven’t checked the market for anything new. Am intrigued if you can add a music chip.</p>
<p>Oh, sorry, no, I just printed the words out on the final page. If ever a song defined who D is, that is the one.</p>
<p>Thanks! I was picturing something like those birthday cards that play music when opened but figured that customization would make the item expensive.</p>
<p>But I bet you could put in something similar to the things in the cards on your own once you had the finished product. My S made one for an invention he was working on-the parts are available at Radio Shack. You could place it so that when she opens the photo book, the song plays.</p>
<p>Oh no! Did I pick a depressing song? </p>
<p>I told my nephew to use Israel Kamakawiwo’ole’s mix of Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ What a Wonderful World in my daughter’s slideshow. I thought Somewhere Over the Rainbow was a happy song, but someone told me it’s depressing. </p>
<p>At least one other person here recommended each of those songs for a graduation slideshow. What do you think? Should I change it?

<p>For a small town girl, if she likes a bit of a country sound “Who I Am” by Jessica Andrews or “The House that Built Me” by Miranda Lambert. Both my DD’s used these in their Senior recitals. Maybe “Breakaway” by Kelly Clarkson. </p>
<p>I agree with “For Good” from Wicked. Also:</p>
<p>“Don’t Stop Me Now” by Queen.</p>
<p>“Wide Open Spaces” by the Dixie Chicks</p>
<p>“In My Life” the Beatles</p>
<p>“Right Now” Van Halen</p>
<p>Check my post (#24)- we had nearly half the crowd at my son’s graduation party with tears in their eyes!</p>
<p>How about “My Way” by Frank Sinatra?</p>
<p>Psychodad…those are great songs, but they just didn’t fit my dd. We used the green day song in my son’s slideshow, or I’d definitely use that one again. </p>
<p>HI Mom…for the last song in the slideshow, we gave my nephew 3 choices and told him to surprise us. My Way was one of them. DD is a Sinatra fan. </p>
<p>See my post #38. The slideshow has been made, but it’s not too late for me to change up one of the songs. What I’m wondering is IF I need to do that. Is the Somewhere Over the Rainbow part of that mixed song too depressing?</p>
