Whether you are here to find sister songs for an upcoming wedding, or simply just to celebrate each other, here are the top 20 sister songs of all time that you need to know about. 

1. Best friend

While it does not directly say sister on it, most of us consider our sisters as our best friends for life. It becomes more relatable for sisters as Aaliyah and Missy Elliott run through the vocals singing, I’ll still be there for you in your time of need.

This song was heard again in 2019 when Missy won the highest honor in the VMA and dedicated it to her best friend Aaliyah who died in 2001. 

2. Sisters are doing it for themselves

This collaboration song by the great Aretha Franklin and the British girl group Eurythmics puts sisterhood on a higher notch as it talks about the importance of women empowering fellow women. It was nominated in the 1985 Grammys. 

3. Lean on me

Calling on your siblings to lean on when you are not strong is the ultimate reason why this Bill Withers classic made it to this list. It was released in 1972 on his second album Still Bill and has made its mark as the 208th on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. 

4. Older sister

This song would make a good sister anthem because it talks about how much the singer, Carly Simon, adores and worships her older sister. It was a single in the last album of The Simon Sisters together and an ode to their older sister Lucy before she got married. 

5. I’ll take care of you

We all know the Dixie Chicks one of the pillars of country songs with their very beautiful lyrics and this song is not an exemption.

It talks about two sisters who are weaving through life promising to each other that when the world fails one of them, they will take care of each other. It was a part of their 1998 album Wide Open Spaces which gave them a Grammy. 

6. There you’ll be

This song was released in 2001 under the Pearl Harbor album of country hitmaker Faith Hill which won an Academy Award for Best Original Song. It does not directly point to sister but anyone who dedicates her success to someone important can easily allude to this song as a sister anthem. 

7. Little sister

This song is so touching specifically for siblings with sisters that are on the way to recovery from addiction. It was released by the pop artist Jewel in 1995 and since then has been performed 302 times. 

8. I got you

This song hits you in the right spot if you have the most supportive sister as Leona Lewis belts out the verses, if you have no place to run, I got you. Upon its release in 2009, it was a hit single in more than six countries including the US. 

9. This one’s for the girls

This song is also about women empowerment where a big sister preaches to the younger generation of girls that they can make it through life regardless of the circumstances. It was released in 2003 in the hit country album Martina by Martina McBride. 

10. Kind and Generous

This is a song of gratitude, respect and adoration for someone who is kind, sacrificing and dependable; three characteristics that could sum up a sister. It was released by singer/songwriter Nathalie Merchant in 1998 under her album Ophelia. 

11. On the ride

This song performed by the teen pop duo Aly and AJ was initially released as one of the songs they performed in their Disney show Cow Belles. It talks about life and how we can easily make it as long as we have a best friend, a sister to make it through with.

12. I’ll stand by you

This pop rock song by The Pretenders did not only win a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals in 1994 but is also one of the most timeless songs that one could dedicate for someone that has been there through everything, including your sister. 

13. Miss Celie’s blues

A song performed by Quincy Jones for the award winning Spielberg movie The Color Purple and also won an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1986, this enigmatic song talks about how a woman rose from nothing to something and hopes that her sister follows the same path too. 

14. Sister oh sister

This is a heart tugging, nostalgic indie folk song about missing your sister who is always there to defend you and has been there to lift you up. It was made popular by Rosanne Cash under the album Kin. 

15. We are family

Who would ever forget this sisters/family R&B anthem by the American vocal group Sister Sledge? Talking about how the solidarity of sisterhood and family, it is ranked 20th in the Billboard list of the 100 Greatest Songs by a Girl Group of All Time. 

16. Martha

It is a song of a brother longing to see his sister, asking her to come home and visit the family. Written and performed by Rufus Wainwright in 2010 for his album All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu, this song reminds us that we are all rooted somewhere and that there are people who are waiting for us to come home. 

17. When we grow up

This song was released by Diana Ross in 1973 under the album Touch Me in the Morning. It talks about the musings of a younger sister about the person they will be when they grow up and promises in the end that they will never change including how they love and treat each other. 

18. Come dancing

Performed by the award winning British group The Kinks in 1982, this song is a commemorative rock song for the sister of Ray Davies, the songwriter, of his sister Rene who died of cardiac arrest while dancing in a dance hall. 

19. My wish

This is one of the hit songs of the country group Rascal Flatts that is more of a lengthy piece of wishes for someone dear as they go through the struggles of life. It can be a good anthem for older siblings passing it on to their younger sisters. It was released in 2006 under the album Me and My Gang. 

20. Wind beneath my wings

This song by Bette Midler is perhaps one of the most famous family anthems ever written speaking of gratitude, enduring endearment and unceasing support from a loved one. It was released in 1988 and won a Grammy for being the Record of the Year.

FAQs

What is a bride-sister song during your wedding?

As a bride, you may want to offer a bride-sister song to dedicate to your sister and your special relationship. Your sister may want to do the same.

Bride-sister songs are songs that speak to the relationship between you and your sister or sisters.

Choosing the right song is important because your wedding day is important.

What is a good song to dedicate to your little sister?

A good song celebrates your little sister as someone you trust, love, and a true friend. Good little sister songs include “Dance Little Sister” by The Rolling Stones and “Look at Little Sister” by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble.

What song should I dedicate to my older sister?

A good song celebrates your older sister as someone you trust, love, and a true friend. Good older sister songs include “Older Sister” by Carly Simon and “My Sister” by Reba McEntire.

How can I include my sister or the sister of the groom in the wedding?

The best way to honor your sister or the groom’s sister is to have her part of the wedding party as a bridesmaid or groomswoman. Depending on her age, you could also have her as the flower girl. Another option is to have per perform a ceremony reading.

When do we play the bride-sister song?

We recommend playing the song during the wedding reception so that everyone can participate in dancing to the song. But, if your sister is a musician, she might have written you a special song to play during the ceremony. We’ve seen a lot of talent in our days.

If you’d like to keep the moment private between you (as the bride) and your sister, play it during your wedding photos. Or while she is helping you with your gown. It makes a great photo opportunity.

What if I don’t have a sister?

Maybe you didn’t grow up with a sister. You could feel left out. Or your sister is estranged from you. Family estrangement seems to be on the trend, sadly. As with blended families. On the other hand, you may have discovered a long-lost sister or a half-sister, or you really bonded with your step-sister. Include them in your wedding celebration, by all means.

Your aunt may be very close to your age and fill that role in your life. And don’t forget about the besties. Sometimes childhood friends are closer than sisters. But be advised, that people have expectations during weddings that closely align with bloodlines than we would like to think. So, if you decide to include a sister song for a non-traditional role, talk about it with your spouse and wedding coordinator.

Sangeet and Sister Songs

Sisters gather to sing songs with and for the bride to go back to Punjabi culture. Singing jokes about your in-laws sounds like a great way to start pre-wedding festivities and shake off some stress. This practice is part of the pre-ceremony festivities and, according to Lin & Jirsa, happens in the bride’s home or banquet hall.

Westerners could definitely take this tradition and incorporate it into their wedding receptions, especially as a group song with the bride, her sisters, and new sisters-in-law. The DJ could play the karaoke track or the sisters could all dance and sing along. Talk to your professional wedding planner and DJ for their advice on how this could be a fun part of your wedding. It would definitely make memories!

National Sisters Day and Weddings

Don’t forget about National Sisters Day, too. National Sisters Day is celebrated every year on the first Sunday in August. So, if that is the day of your wedding, it would be extra special to honor your sister. If your sister passed away, you may want to honor her or avoid this day. It really depends on you and your future husband.

If you have a sister song we should add to the list, please comment on it below.

True Sisters is the song from Sofia The First Season 1 Pilot “Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess” Sung by Sofia and Cinderella. Perfomed by Ariel Winter.

Cinderella: Everyone’s heard about the day
That true love came for me
He carried me off and far away from my step family
But ever since I wed the prince
And left my hurt behind
There’s one regret I won’t forget
That weighs upon my mind

My step sisters let their jealousy 
Harden their hearts
But when they ruined my ball gown
That’s not all they tore apart
If only we had tried to see
A way to start a new
We may have found that this time round
Our friendship only grew

We could have been true sisters
If we only made amends
True true sisters
And ever after friends

You suddenly feel that all is lost
Frightened and alone
But maybe yours isn’t the only heart
That’s sinking like a stone

Though many of the ones you love
Are frozen in a trance
Someone who’s a lot like you
Never made it to the dance

Sofia: But Amber’s been so mean to me.
Cinderella: Maybe all she needs is a second chance.

You could be true sisters
Sofia: Sisters
Cinderella: If you only make amends
True true sisters
Sofia: Sisters
Both: And ever after friends
