Aidan Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Just uploaded client's choices for break music onto my iPod. They include such traditional, cheery fare as: Knockin on Heaven's Door Comfortably Numb Shut Up and Let Me Go Don't Dream It's Over Heartbreak Hotel Love Will Tear Us Apart Every Breath You Take Pretty Vacant Hmm!

NoahZark Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 When will people finally realize that "Every Breath You Take" is not a love song? Umm, looking at the rest of the list, I think this couple realizes that pretty well. Noah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonysounds Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Love Will Tear Us Apart.... I didn't think I'd ever go to a wedding with Joy Division playing in the background. Hitting "Play" does NOT constitute live performance. -Me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfD Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 The music was submitted by someone who objects to the wedding or the bride and groom just really dig the instrumental bed underneath the lyrics.

niacin Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 "I will always love you" (Whitney I think) always reminded me of how much attention the general wedding going public don't pay to lyrics.

NoahZark Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 "I will always love you" (Whitney I think) always reminded me of how much attention the general wedding going public don't pay to lyrics. This issue is actually a pretty big pet peeve of mine (as my wife, who always has to listen to my complaints about such things at weddings, could tell you)....

Joe Muscara Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Dolly Parton wrote and recorded the original version. Jus' sayin'. Heck, I never listened to the lyrics nor knew what they were until just now, because of this discussion. Then again, I never listened to the song before. Back when Lori and I got together, we had an "untraditional" wedding. We used to joke that if we had a "real" wedding, is who we wanted to have play. . In other words, we'd hire a cool local band and let them play their set as they wanted, because that's the way we enjoyed them. "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

Joe Muscara Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Carolyn is awesome. Her keyboard player is pretty cool, he also plays bass (on keys) for most shows. He's been playing a Stage lately too.

Kayvon Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I've been asked to play Madeline Peyroux's version of Leonard Cohen's 'Dance me to the end of love' at my friends wedding where i'm the best man. I mentioned to the groom that it's a bit dark which he duly passed on to the bride but she's still got her heart set on it. I'm not looking forward to how it's gonna go down but I guess I'll do my best to oblige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonaldM Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 "I will always love you" (Whitney I think) always reminded me of how much attention the general wedding going public don't pay to lyrics. While Dolly Parton originally wrote the song in 1973, probably for her friend Porter Wagoner, she re-did it in 1982 as part of the music for "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" with Burt Reynolds. Kinda puts a different spin on it, doesn't it? There are 10 kinds of people in the world...those who can read binary, and those who can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonaldM Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Speaking of wedding music...nothing, and I mean NOTHING will top the recessional music used at a wedding my wife and I attended last summer. First, (and I swear I am NOT making this up), the couple entered to Pachabel's Canon in D. Traditional, right? Until you realize it was being played entirely on a slightly out of tune electric guitar with bad fuzz setting. You have NEVER heard the Canon until you've heard this particular version. Then, for the recessional, the couple had the video of the ending scene from Shrek II, which showed Shrek and his ogre bride dancing at their wedding to "I'm a Believer"...orginally done by The Monkees...playing as they walked down the church isle in matrimonial bliss. You can't make this stuff up! There are 10 kinds of people in the world...those who can read binary, and those who can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydogg Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 I sang Lionel Ritchie's "Penny Lover" at a wedding once. The bride's name was Penny, of course. I don't think she was a prostitute though. http://www.junkbelly.org http://www.facebook.com/junkbelly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noah Covered on the Today show with interview of the bride and groom. 7 million+ hits on youtube. Article on the first page of the Washington Post's Style section this morning. And the truest sign of all that things with that video have gotten insane: My wife opens an email containing a link to the video at the very same time this morning that I'm reading the article in the Post.
