okay.
i'd love to hear from EVERYONE on here. just dish about music. i personally can't get enough of lovey dovey gushy songs lately (as im sure many of us fall victim to such a state while planning our wedding... eeeeeep!). my wedding isn't until october, so i've still got some time to make final decisions when it comes to ceremony/reception/specified dance songs... but i'd love to just get a huge post of what everyone's going with
. the fiance and i are musician's ourselves, so this is one of the best parts of this whole event for us
. so please, by all means, let loose on this thread. i'd LOVE it
.
i'll start with some of my very favorite picks (which will likely change over and over and over again, haha):
bill withers - "lovely day"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Are8TGR5hQ&feature=fvstmichael franti & spearhead - "i'll be waiting"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6B2ZVU9Gnw**this song has a background story... i'm a huge fan of mr franti, and FI surprised me with a trip to vegas for spearheads album release... got to meet spearhead (again, hahaha), heard this song for the first time at his show, and franti showed up RIGHT BEHIND US in the crowd to perform. SO amazing... and such an amazing song

the rocket summer - "hills and valleys"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBaQADQHyI4**maybe not for the wedding, but this is one of FI's songs for me... he's in afghanistan right now, and he played this for me before he deployed.**
anais mitchell - "the wedding song"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcH_bslOj8g**this song is typically a duet, but i just love her, so i decided to put this link. feel free to check out the duet... its feat. justin vernon
**
taio cruz - "no other one"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5o1GxG-ewAokay, all the other songs are not youtube-able... but if youve got itunes, humanlab - "to be alive" is just beautiful
.
anyways, run with this, please. i'll add more when i can remember them
.
have fun!
