I'm using Love on Top by Beyonce.

I wanted to use "September" but FI didn't like it so we're gonna use "Just the Way You Are" by Bruno Mars, but I'm thinkin about changing it.

One of my co workers played "I be strokin'"...it was kinda funny....because she is an "other". The pastor turned beet red! LOL! It was in good fun though

I was TOTALLY sold on Signed, Sealed, Delivered for a minute! I LOVE the music and Stevie's "HAAAAAAAAY" at the beginning. It also helps that my FI has Stevie's birthday (May 13), so we Have to have some Stevie in the wedding!

But, then I actually read the lyrics. He's saying,

Like a fool I went and stayed too long
Now I'm wondering if your love's still strong
Oo, baby, here I am, signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours!

Then that time I went and said goodbye
Now I'm back and not ashamed to cry
Oo, baby, here I am, signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours

So, this is really a "I'm a dumb dude who messed up. But, Baby, I'm Back!"song, not a HAPPY, HAPPY JOY song, after all! I am totally into lyrics, so I was so disappointed to learn the truth. (It was almost as bad as when I learned that "Reasons" was about a one-night stand and "Ben" was about a rat!<img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-frown.gif" border="0" alt="Frown" title="Frown" />)
