Las Vegas Theme Song?!
Question: My class is putting on the High School Prom this year. Our theme is "Viva Las Vegas", we are setting up lots of cool decorations, one of those is that we are re-creating the "Vegas strip", and as people are coming into prom, we will play the song, "viva las vegas", we still need a "prom song" for the queen and king to dance too. We need a slow song and we are really stumped as to what song to use. Do you know any songs that would be appropriate? We appreciate all answers and help. Thank you!

Hope this can help you. It lists top 25 greatest Vegas songs ever.

e.g.
'Shiny Disco Balls' by Who Da Funk
"This is a great dance song and had it been more about Vegas (or at least had more than three lines), it would have easily been at the top."
Obviously Elvis Presley is synonymous with Vegas, maybe you could also look into that direction, along with Frank Sinatra.
Jazz big band music also comes to mind. You know, the cabaret shows.
Staged musicals and concerts (e.g. Celine Dion) is another one.
Check out Las Vegas entertainment website for ideas.
Definitely this one:
Frank Sinatra - Luck Be A Lady
(if you look into it, Sinatra has a lot of ties to Vegas, and they play this song in front of Bellagio all the time)
P.S. Hope you guys can swing, lol
How about Joe Cockers song You Are So Beautiful that is a lovely song and its slow
or the old Mamma Cass song Dream A Little dream Of Me
What better slow dance song to use than one from Elvis, my suggestions are either:
Love Me tender - elvis presley
Can't Help falling in love - elvis presley
Or, if you don't like any of those, this song below could always work.
A certain smile - johnny mathis
