I'm curious, for those of you that have tied the Knot.

What song did you play for the first dance???

For you unmarried younguns, what song would you choose?

Mine was - Bryan Adams: When you love someone.

I wanted Rage against the Machine, "Bullet in your head" but I think we are going to have 'Romantic songs' Songs instead

15th April 2007, 12:28

well, I would choose "Everything I do" by Brian adams (yes, i love brian, he's my hero, his songs are soooooo good!!)

Can't remember. Mind you, the shuffling we did around the floor would hardly be classed as dancing anyway.
How bad a dancer am I? Well I got depressed a couple of weeks ago as I was watching one of the intellectually disabled residents at the place I work at dancing by himself to some music from in his head ... and I silently wished I could dance as well as he could.

thats a really nice song! I'd also probably have "here I am" by Brian adams

"It's a life with the beating of your heart! It's a new day, its a new way, and ive been waiting for you... here i am"

When my husband and I walked down the aisle out of the church we had "I got you babe" by UB40 playing and then at our dance it was "Betcha, by golly, wow" by Aaron Neville.

But he don't got me no more anyway. ;)

Can't remember what song we had for our first dance but Rhino and I sang together at our wedding. The song was called "Rose" by Paul Williams - no it's not the Bette Midler song - that's called "The Rose". Rhino started it off as I was coming up the aisle and then I joined him at the chorus and sang the harmony. It felt very moving and everyone clapped after we had sung it.

i'm gonna have "Dirty Love" by Frank Zappa

Give me
Your dirty love
Like you might surrender
To some dragon in your dreams

Give me
Your dirty love
Like a pink donation
To the dragon in your dreams

I dont need your sweet devotion
I dont want your cheap emotion
Just whip me up some dragon lotion
For your dirty love

Give me
Your dirty love
Like some tacky little pamphlet
In your daddys bottom drawer

Give me
Your dirty love
I dont believe you have ever seen
That book before

I dont need no consolation
I dont want your reservation
I only got one destination
An thats your dirty love

Give me
Your dirty love
Just like your mama
Make her fuzzy poodle do

Give me
Your dirty love
The way your mama
Make that nasty poodle chew

Ill ignore your cheap aroma
And your little-bo-peep diploma
Ill just put you in a coma
With some dirty love

The poodle bites!
(come on, frenchie)
The poodle chews it!
(snap it!)
The poodle bites!
(come on, frenchie)
The poodle chews it!
(snap it!)

Would love that. We actually had dancing lessons a few years ago (waltz, foxtrot) and I really enjoyed it ... especially the real slow stuff. Sadly there was not much opportunity to practice so we've forgotten how.

Love, is a burning thing
And it makes, a firery ring
Bound, by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

The taste, of love is sweet
When hearts, like ours, meet
I fell for you like a child
Ohhhhh, but the fire went wild

I'm divorced now but for the first dance (if you can call it that) at our wedding I recall we played John Cougar Mellencamp's 'Cherry Bomb' from the album 'Lonesome Jubilee' but now I wish we'd played a 'Prodigy' number; 'Smack my bitch up'.

Ahhh! The benefit of hindsight.

My new lady hasn't heard much Supertramp so I played her the title song from the album 'Even in the quietest moments' a while back (great lyrics for romantic moments in front of the one bar heater) and she went all gooey, which was cool coz it cut down on foreplay effort dramatically.
