I am looking for a few songs similar to Through the Years by Kenny Rogers. My daughter's and I are putting together a CD with music for my husband's 70th birthday and so far we have only come up with Through the Years. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Do I ever..
I know a couple of people on here whom can also be of great help. I'll call in the calvary.
I have no clear idea what taste of music you have but mine is across the board (minus rap and heavy metal) Your husband being 70 years old can appreciate fine music. He and I would make great friends I suspect.
Since I get the idea of types of songs and probably artists, with the one song you have chosen, I will name the artists, as they will have several songs that fit. Right off the bat you should scroll down the many songs Neil Diamond has produced. I also suggest Lionel Richie, he's pretty sappy though and that might be too thick for what you are looking for. Frank Sinatra has a couple and so does Garth Brooks.
As you can see that's quite a mix and it's only, what 4 artists. Let me know if any of those are the type of music you are looking for and it will give me a lot better idea of what you like. From there I can suggest songs and artists.
I hope this helps, happy birthday to your husband (I love your idea)!

I don't know about you, but I have always had a soft spot for Sinatra... (Another similarity to add to the list, life1973!)
What about:
The Way You Look Tonight
Unforgettable
Come Away With Me (Norah Jones)
Everything (Lifehouse)
Not knowing your style (other than Through the Years), hope these helped! :)
