Whenever Father's Day rolls around, we're all faced with the same question: How should I celebrate this year? If you already have a gift for Dad picked out, and his favorite Father's Day dinner is ready to go, there's one final thing you can do to make the day extra special—create a playlist of the best Father's Day songs about dads. These tunes are as heartwarming as classic Father's Day poems, but even better because you can dance to them.
Music is a wonderful way to capture your special relationship, dad jokes and all. Some tracks directly mention dads, like Keith Urban's heartfelt country hit "Song for Dad" or John Mayer's "Daughters." Other songs don't have the words "dad" or "father" in them but sweetly capture your feelings like Stevie Wonder's hit, "These Three Words." Plus, there are a few in here that are just simply classic dad songs (Ahem, Ladd Drummond is a big country music fan)! And even if he still wants the coolest new grilling accessories, what's a better Father's Day activity than turning up the tunes and jamming out?
