Jenna Bush picks 'You Are So Beautiful' for dance with Dad
By JOE EDWARDS, Associated Press Writer 38 minutes ago
Jenna Bush picked "You Are So Beautiful," the ballad made famous by Joe Cocker, for the father-daughter dance with President Bush at her wedding reception Saturday night in Texas, the band leader said.
Tyrone Smith of Nashville and his 10-piece party band, The Tyrone Smith Revue, were hired to play at the reception in Crawford.
The band was asked to do "Lovin' in My Baby's Eyes" by Taj Mahal for the newlyweds' first dance. Smith spoke to The Associated Press on Tuesday about the music plans, on the condition that the reporter honor a request by the Bush family not to release the information before the wedding.
Smith, who also played at one of the 2005 Bush inaugural balls at the Washington Convention Center, normally coaxes his audience members onstage to dance. He planned to make the president a target Saturday night.
"If he's around and the party's going, I'll get him up," Smith said. "I can't imagine him ducking out."
Smith planned to play "Celebration" by Kool & the Gang as the newlyweds arrived at the reception about 7 p.m. CDT in a tent on the 1,600-acre family ranch in Crawford. He said the band would play briefly, then break while the attendees have dinner, then resume and play until around 1 a.m.
"It'll be a 'get down' party," Smith promised.

Actually, what’s sad is that you’d judge me without knowing me. But that’s your right, so carry on.
I answered a post (which, incidentally, wasn’t yours). As far as I know, that is allowed on this forum. If I am incorrect, please inform me.
Do I think it’s nice that their father-daughter dance was special? I sure do.
Do I think that makes him the greatest president ever? Nope.
Really?
"The Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell of Windsor Village United Methodist Church in Houston officiated at the ceremony. Mr. Caldwell, a longtime religious adviser to Mr. Bush, has endorsed Senator Barack Obama. "
Seems they could have done better in that regard.
” As far as I know, that is allowed on this forum.”
Right from the Paulistinian Field Manual:
Section 6.d - When called on a stupid comment, pretend your freedom of speech is being attacked.
Oh, yes.
Sinatra, The Way You Look Tonight was the song we first danced to at our wedding reception. What could possibly be better?
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.
That is a beautiful song. It will stay with you forever.
Awww, how cute. You came over to call some names. I expected nothing less.
That’s a sweet song!
That one’s great. Hearing it in my head is giving me goosebumps right now.
Every emotional
You got on your soapbox to spread your hatred for GW on his daughters wedding thread. Nobody wanted this to be another boring immigration thread but you.
You can’t even allow a thread about a Daughter dancing w/her Father at her wedding, even Cindy Shehag knows better than that.
Pray for W and Our Freedom Fighters
Ditto!! God Bless President Bush!!!
