Wind Beneath My Wings was used during my candlelighting, which makes everyone either laugh or tear up... Other possibilities:
All about Soul by Billy Joel
Beautiful Life by Fisher
You''ve Got a Friend by James Taylor
Shower the People by James Taylor
Thank You, Stars by Katie Melua
My Old Friend by Tim McGraw
Just remember that this has to be meaningful to you and your niece, even if the song ends up being an inside joke between the two of you. Have you talked to her about what songs remind her of you? My big sister and I had an incredible bonding session over selecting the candlelighting song for her candle, giggling over my threatening to use Wind Beneath My Wings or Sisters (from White Christmas, the Bing Crosby/Danny Kaye version where they're in drag and beat each other up during the number!)
