I make the video every year for the gymnastics team banquet and this year I'm going to have a song with pictures of them when they were littler and now--but I need some suggestions for a song to use! Got any good ideas??

I am doing do for our team as well. I got a few songs picked out but I'm not sharing.
Seriously, is there a customary theme? That probably should determine the type of music you want to use.
Our gym traditionally do a tear jerker with an easy-listening/instrumental/vocal number for the slideshow (often from Disney). When I say tear-jerker, I'm not kidding. It's heavy tissue time for the ladies.
Since I took over the task, I've added a second part that is a montage that contains animation and featured clips. The theme changes from one year to the next. For that, I typically pick something that is a bit off main stream (but not totally out there), catchy and (somewhat) age appropriate. That's usually a good seller with the gymnasts.
FWIW, this year it'll be James Taylor's You've Got a Friend for the vocal. I'm thinking a pop-reggae mix of Matiyahu's One day, Dirty Heads' Stand Tall and Michael Franti's Say Hey for the other number.
You should do some songs that the gymnasts like. ask your daughter and her friends what they would want. thats how my coach does it
Last year our gym used "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. It worked real well, but I am still trying to find something job for this year.
Great minds think alike! One of those is what I am considering for this year. Last year, I had two themes: a composition of demos, optional dances and skills; and an attitude number.last year I did the girls dancing--this year I'm doing the one with them as little kids and then now.
"Do I Make You Proud" Taylor Hicks about 4 min.
"Rock What You Got" Superchick from Make It or Break It
"Supergirl" Saving Jane Nastia used at after Olympics Tour
"Happy Girl" Martina McBride at least the chorus is good
"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" Cindy Lauper the chorus
I will keep thinking. These are the kind of projects I love. Where do you get all the pictures from? Our gym does this just for seniors usually, but what a great idea.
