Recessional song? HELP PLEASE

I want a kick ass song to start when we turn to our guests.
Our "funny" song for each other is AC/DC You Shook Me All Night Long, but that has some unappropriate verbage (she told me to *** but I was already there)

Our ceremony music consists of Vitamin String Quartet's remakes of classic rock & 80's rock songs. So I want it to fit in, but I want it to be the actual rock song, not VSQ.

I am having the hardest time finding the "perfect" song. HELP

    Hmm... We played Angels and Airwaves the Adventure. Black Eye'd Peas tonight's going to be a good night would be a good one too. Are you looking for something more 80's butt rock? I will have to think about it. I will ask DH too. Our wedding was pretty 80's hair band heavy, so I am sure I can come up with something. It is hard to find something that isn't coated in sex though. Maybe Bon Jovi Living on a Prayer? Our entry song was Pour Some Sugar on Me. If I think of something really good I promise to page you.

    "Walk This Way," Aerosmith?  The lyrics are dirty if you really listen, but you're walking...this way, right?

    I wouldn't do that, just because there is too much risk with the DJ playing it at the wrong part. I like Sweet Child of Mine as a suggestion. I also like Nothing but a good time.

    We used the Star Wars Theme Song. It's synonymous with 'epic journey' in my mind.
