<\/a>I spent a lot of time looking for my favorite family reunion song, I\u2019ve searched the net and I\u2019ve visited hundreds of family web pages. I found that the most used song on these family web pages is \u201cFamily Reunion\u201d by the O\u2019Jays\u201d. I like the lyrics that say, \u201cIt\u2019s so nice to see, all the folks you love together\u201d. Not a bad song, really, the song\u2019s only problem is that it is over used and, for my liking, the tempo is a little slow.<\/p>\nThere are some great family reunion songs that are regional in nature such as \u201cSweet Home Alabama\u201d which would be a great reunion song if you roots were in Alabama or if Texas were your home state, \u201cGod Blessed Texas\u201d, <\/strong>or "Louisiana Saturday Night" by Alabama. But you really need to be from one of those places to choose it as your favorite family reunion song.<\/p>\n My list of family reunion songs is quite an eclectic list, songs from many different genres. I think that a reunion song should be upbeat and fun and should make you feel good and if it meets that criterion, I don\u2019t care who sings it or if it is considered country, rock or spiritual in nature.<\/p>\n Let\u2019s start my list with a song that probably couldn\u2019t be classified as \u201cfamily reunion\u201d music but it has a great tempo and some fun lyrics and to be perfectly honest, is just a guilty pleasure of mine. \u201cThe Boys Are Back in Town\u201d is my number 10 choice. My number 9 choice is another fun song- one that you can use to get your \u201cparty started\u201d but most people probably don\u2019t think of it as a family reunion song.<\/p>\n Songs numbers two through eight can be considered more traditional family reunion songs and although they didn\u2019t come immediately to my mind, seem to naturally belong on the list.<\/p>\n Song number one is in a class of it\u2019s own but I want you to discover it for yourself. So read on, and when you get to song number one, prepare to be surprised.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n #10 Boys Are Back In Town- Bruce Springstein<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n #9 Get the Party Started- Pink <\/strong>I’m comin’ up <\/strong><\/p>\n #8 \u201cWho Says You Can\u2019t Go Home\u201d \u2013 Bon Jovi & Sugarland <\/strong>Who says you can\u2019t go home #7 Lights of My Hometown- Aaron Lines <\/strong>Don\u2019t know how long I\u2019ve been gone, All I know is it\u2019s been too long<\/p>\n #6 Something To Be Proud Of- Montgomery Gentry <\/strong>That’s something to be proud of #5 Family Reunion- O\u2019Jays <\/strong>It\u2019s so nice to see, All the folks you love together<\/p>\n #4 Home- Chris Daughtry <\/strong>So I’m going home, #3 These Are My People- Rodney Adkins <\/strong>These are my people #2 We Are Family- Sister Sledge <\/strong><\/p>\n All of the people around us they say The above songs be downloaded for 99 cents at http:\/\/family-reunion-planner.fimark.net\/family-reunion-songs.html<\/a><\/p>\n And now for MY number one family reunion song-<\/p>\n #1 <\/strong>Family Reunion- Plank Road<\/strong> Publishing <\/strong><\/p>\n From the hills of California from the shores of Maine<\/p>\n We all come together with the same last name.<\/p>\n It\u2019s our family reunion!<\/p>\n So many aunts and uncles<\/p>\n I\u2019ll have to count again<\/p>\n And all these crazy cousins<\/p>\n I can\u2019t believe we\u2019re kin!<\/p>\n I have a favorite family reunion song- it\u2019s upbeat and fun and you feel good when you listen to it and even better when you sing it. It\u2019s a little known song, you haven\u2019t heard it on the radio and … Continue reading
So you better
Get this party started<\/p>\n
theres only one place they call you one of their own
Just a hometown boy born a rolling stone
who says you cant go home<\/p>\n
That’s a life you can hang your hat on
That’s a chin held high as the tears fall down
A gut sucked in, a chest stuck out
Like a small town flag a-flyin’
Or a newborn baby cryin’
In the arms of the woman that you love
That’s something to be proud of<\/p>\n
Back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.<\/p>\n
This is where I come from
Were givin’ this life everything we got and then some
It ain’t always pretty
But its real
It’s the way we were made <\/a>Wouldn’t have it any other way
These are my people<\/p>\n
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We’re giving love in a family dose<\/p>\nThe lyrics are great but don\u2019t mean as much until you put the fun music behind them. You can listen to this song at <\/span>http:\/\/www.familyreunionhelper.com<\/span><\/a> <\/span>and you can download it <\/span><\/span>http:\/\/www.mootoobmoosic.com<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n
Our family has had a lot of fun with the reunion song. One year we assigned a few people from each family group to learn the song and then sing it at our family reunion. Many of the performers dressed up in Hill Billy attire and sang it with a twang. It was the highlight of the reunion and soon everyone at the reunion was singing along. It\u2019s easy to learn and easy to sing but if you\u2019re looking for a serious family reunion song this is not it.<\/span><\/h3>\n
\u201cFamily Reunion\u201d is upbeat and fun but no one is going to get tears in their eyes when they listen to it- unless they\u2019re tears of laughter!<\/span><\/h3>\n
