Every little girl dreams of the perfect Sweet 16 party, celebrating that milestone into womanhood surrounded by friends and family. Traditionally, music plays a major role in the parties, especially the songs played as the candles on the cake are lit, wished upon and then blown out.

Celebrating 16 There are a number of songs about turning 16 and celebrating this milestone birthday. Traditionalists may like to use any one of these songs, or play a combination while the candles are lit and the cake is cut. A classic 1950s song by The Crests, '16 Candles' has long been popular. Also consider songs such as Sam Cooke's 'Only 16,' Neil Sedaka's 'Happy Birthday Sweet 16,' or Ringo Starr's 'You're 16.'

Songs to Make Her Cry A Sweet 16 party can be just the time to tell that special young lady just what she means to her parents and to her family -- a gesture that's particularly meaningful when it's mom or dad lighting the candles. Consider songs like The Beatles' 'In My Life,' Bryan Adams' 'Everything I Do, I Do it For You,' Chicago's 'You're the Inspiration,' Louis Armstrong's 'What a Wonderful World,' Night Ranger's 'Sister Christian' or Dean Martin's 'That's Amore.' For a Sense of Humor For the girl that loves to laugh and lives for making others do the same, be creative with the song choice. There are plenty of songs that still say everything that's needed, but will make her laugh as she's blowing out her candles.
