I said the same thing, but with peoples thinking on marriage these days they have a hard time assocating (marriage = forever)

I've always liked friend, lover, sister, mother wife from Emancipation.

Ofcourse, it's a strech to believe prince sees weddings = forever

one in a million by larry graham. that's what my dad played when he married my now former stepmother (no wonder their marriage didn't last-- got off on the wrong foot!).

I know it's kinda cheesey but I think 'Friend, Lover, Sister,.."
is a beautiful song to get married to

We used "Adore" as our first dance. However, I do like "Forever In My Life" as well.

Adore is good, but probably has been used a lot. I'd say: Friend, Lover, Sister, Mother, Wife; Forever in my Life or Betcha by Golly Wow (his or the original). Or Larry's One in Million. But to be honest, I'm a major Prince fan but wouldn't use one of his songs for the main dance myself. Recently I heard the old song "I Love You" by the Climax Blues Band and I think it is the perfect wedding song. I'm sure it was used a lot way back when but seldom heard these days.

as opening dance we Used;Van Morrison Have I told you lately

I'd recommend going with a non-Prince song.

how about Betcha By Golly Wow? or the greatest romance ever sold. Those are oooozing with romance and a good prelude to your honeymoon

alphastreet said:

No! Not "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold"!

I'm not sure what the song is about, but it's certainly NOT about romance, right? I mean, he's practically SELLING the IDEA of a romance!

Hold on...I'll be right back...I'm gonna start a thread called "What do u think 'the greatest romance ever sold' is about?"

i personally don't like weddings. not that anyone asked my opinion but i thought i'd offer it anyway. i think i hate all of the preparation, time, effort and money that go into alot of them and then they're over w/ in a blink. if i came from money i would have the simplest wedding ceremony possible and then i would ask my family to pay for a bombastically fantabulous honeymoon. one that's a month long!

Thanks for all the great response guys.. Still not sure.. Adore is a possibility.. Betcha By Golly Wow was one I had thought of earlier.. Im still going through song after song trying to find one we both agree on.

I should just play Blue Light.. thats the one that is most us anyways lol...

Either that or Strange Relationship...

How about Loose?

COME

take a good look around at ur wedding, cause thats what some of ur mates who r there will b doing 2 ur wife in a couple of years if not sooner

Eartha Kitt: Under the bridges of Paris (Sur les ponts de Paris)

with Henri René and his Orchestra (1957, RCA)

Nice. but if Van Morrison song, I would have went with "Someone Like You".

incredibleD said:

omg is your avatar a still from "Matchpoint"?

that was such a great movie.

We chose "Crazy You" for our song. It is short, but sweet!

dearlybeloved said:

How sweet. Yes, Adore would be my choice too. It's just so... beautiful and it says it all, all the right things.

Until the end of time
Ill be there 4 u
U own my heart and mind
I truly adore u
If God one day stroke me blind
Your beauty Id still see
Love is 2 weak 2 define
Just what u mean 2 me

Perfect for a wedding.

Houze about I just can't get enough by...Pet Shop boys right? Well one of those....

Forever In My Life I think is a really good choice for a wedding~

Congrats btw~

Depeche Mode, maybe?

We had Adore for our first song. My wife loved it after i played it to her.
We also got the WTF? looks and comments....and I told the DJ to make sure he played the whole song and not to fade it out....it was great to hear it that loud...pure pleasure.
Who cares if it is an obvious choice....99% of the people there (unless you invite some of us here) will never have heard it anyway...and it would be good for them anyway to hear some real music for once in their life.

I wondered if anyone at our wedding heard these lyrics later in the song....


When we be makin' love
I only hear the sounds
Heavenly angels cryin' up above
Tears of joy pourin' down on us
They know we need each other
They know U are my fix
I know, that U know that I ain't cheatin' baby
They know this is serious, I ain't funkin' just 4 kicks, no
This condition I got is crucial, crucial
baby U could say that I'm a terminal case
U could burn up my clothes
Smash up my ride, well maybe not the ride
But I got 2 have your face All up in the place
I'd like 2 think that I'm a man of exquisite taste
A hundred percent Italian silk imported Egyptian lace
But nothin' baby, I said nothin' baby could compare
2 your lovely face
Do U know what I'm sayin' 2 ya this evening
I'm just tryin' 2 say I'm just tryin' 2 say
That until, until the end of time I'll be there 4 U

and then those screams....

We also had 'the rest or my life' playing when we walked into the reception.
One of the other choices i presented to my wife was a billie holiday song and Massive Attack's Angel - really intense.
