Anyway, ours was Make You Feel My Love by Adele. My wife doesn't like Bob Dylan much.

Funny that, almost managed to get 'Fire In My Heart' as our first dance, just couldn't convince the now-Mrs M that a bittersweet one-and-a-half minute tune about separation was the correct choice! Went for 'You To Me Are Everything' by The Real Thing instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most popular first dance song in the 80s was wonderful tonight, which is about a guy getting hacked off cos his mrs is taking ages to get ready, who then goes on to get incredibly drunk at a party and has to be carried back home and passes out in bed.

In the spirit of that theme, I'd love to see the figures of how many people danced to their new union to the Righteous Brothers' hit: Unchained Melody.

Boaby Ewing Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 The problem is it that the best songs about love generally deal with the shittier side of it. Something too old fashioned can feel a little contrived ("Aye, I bet they sit around listening to Tony Bennett ever Friday night"). I quite fancied using The Cure's 'Just Like Heaven' if I ever get round to marrying the burd, but then a mate used it for his first dance a couple of years back (the barsteward... not that he knew). If I go the old fashioned route maybe I should just bribe the DJ to play "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
