I have a boy and girl, and I sing to both of 'em, too.
I sing Elton John's "This song's for you," or whatever the actual title is, to both my kids. The one that goes, "And you can tell everybody that this is your song, it may be quite simple but now that it's done, I hope you don't mind, (I hope you don't mind) that I put down in words... how wonderful life is, now you're in the world..." Always a nice sentiment, I think. LOL, Sir Elton was also a guy singing to another guy, though probably not the way you had in mind.
There's also a country song by George Strait, that has the lyrics: "Let me tell you a secret, about a father's love... a secret that my daddy said was just between us... Daddies don't just love their children every now and then, it's a love without end, aman." (Damn, I'm getting teary just thinking about it!)
My kids like upbeat songs- my son favors country, my daughter favors Broadway... I don't worry too much about the gender of the songs so much as whether it puts them to sleep- my oldest daughter would be out within a couple bars of "Uninvited' by Alanis Morrisette, my son's a sucker for "Part of Your World" from, of all things, the Little Mermaid.
