Non shit songs to play at a wedding

Kahlo · 06-25-2008, 08:26 AM

Hey guys, I'm getting married in a few weeks, and we are trying to sort out the music. We are trying to ban cheesy shit from the playlist, and wanted suggestions as what could be played that is perhaps romantic, but not cheesy pop stuff.

We are also looking for suggestions for a first dance song.

Bad suggestions:

Anything by Anal C*nt
ACDC- 'Highway to hell'
Anti Nowhere League - 'So what'

Sadly I think the best thing we came up with for a first dance was 'Do you realise' by Flaming Lips or something by REM

All non evil suggestions are welcome.

Tupac - Me & My Girlfriend

Kahlo · 06-25-2008, 08:37 AM

Good choice. I was expecting you to suggest Mogwai or something.

We could dance to 'Like Herod' That would finish off quite a few of the oaps in attendance.

ChristHimself! · 06-25-2008, 08:40 AM

I think it would be appropriate for your gf to start overturning tables and going nuts at the break

What!! I'm bustin on you punk ass niggaz *automatic gunfire*
Run nigga run! *gunfire* I'm on yo' ass nigga! *gunfire continues*
Run nigga, duck and hide! Nigga I'm bustin all you bitches!
Run nigga, yeah! Westside! Uh uh uh! Die nigga die!

the greatest song in the world.

pale_princess · 06-25-2008, 01:16 PM

my wedding ban list:

boston- "amanda" (his ex gf's name)

any pink, christina aguilera
any "fake irish" music (spirit of the west, great big sea, etc)

i think he's banning red house painters. hah.

a magnetic fields song for first dance.

pale_princess · 06-25-2008, 01:18 PM

as far as rem "talk about the passion" or "perfect circle" are lovely first dance choices!

Kahlo · 06-25-2008, 01:34 PM

Great ideas - I think she is pushing for "At my most beautiful" I think that might be too romantic.

pale_princess · 06-25-2008, 02:04 PM

nooo! at my most beautiful would be gorgeous!

another one on my ban list: natasha bedingfield, UGH UGH UGH

WORST FIRST DANCE SONGS:

etta james- at last (boooooooooooooooring, predictable, run of the mill. it was xtina augilera's wedding song if that's any indication of its lameness)

bon jovi- bed of roses/always (white trash)

luther vandross- here and now (you don't watch oprah and it's not 1990

"By Starlight" might work. Get someone to play it on a piano or something, the "dead eyes" part might seem a bit gloomy, but otherwise it could be suitable

pale_princess · 06-25-2008, 02:59 PM

by starlight would be horrible.

he mentioned nothing about the sp so go away.

I seem to recall you playing the Star-Spangled Banner at a pep rally.

...anything by the carpenters... gallops across generations. generally classy.
