Song Suggestion At Farewell Dinner - 04/08/05 04:44 AM

Hi!

Our company director is retiring and there's suggestion to perform a song from each department.

We have 2 singers planning to do a duet or it could be a group setup.

Would like to seek your suggestion on the song choice apart from Auld Lang Syne.

Thanks!

Happy Trails (To You), an old Roy Rogers tune; it never fail to bring a tear and a smile.

Play some great, upbeat tunes and make it a party that he will cherish for the rest of his life. Retirement parties should be a happy event--not something akin to a funereal

Cheers,

Gary

Hey, I was sort of joking, but I actually did that song at a retirement party, and it was a huge hit. I had to play it three times.

Dear all,

Thanks very much for the suggestion!

Will share all the suggestions here with the team when we meet up on Monday.

I'd like to try something like Johnny Paycheck's song too but, our new CEO is the "2 + 2 = 1" kind of man, so I doubt the team's gonna play with fire. Now the song "We'll Go Together" from GREASE album comes to my mind!
