Which would you use this for?

I found this beyond fabulous song and trying to decide if I should use it in the ceremony, as the 1st dance or both. The Song is Home from the album

Dreaming Wide Awake: the Music of Scott Alan

What do you think?

Is the youtube video supposed to be the song? If so, I'm not really impressed. Do you have a better version of the song to let us know more what it would actually sound like at your wedding?

Right now I'd vote no on all accounts.

I'm not really impressed with the singer off of the youtube clip, but if you really like the song then I vote for the reception.

I think I would just play it during dinner......

Well, I wasn't blown away by the video you linked us too, but there was a lot of background noise, and the singer seemed off.  I did a youtube search for the song and found this

and NOW I think the song is beautiful, and would vote processional song, or song during the first dance.  I wouldn't do it as a 'performance' song during the ceremony though, it's pretty slow/long to keep guests entertained.

I guess I'm the only one who liked the singer, the background noise detracted from the song, but I would vote singer during ceremony.  My bbf was married in Aug and her sister sang Bless the Broken Road by Rascal Flatts and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.  For me having a singer at the ceremony adds to the intimacy of the day. If you know of a great singer who could do the song justice I say go for it. If not, it would be a great first dance song.
