  If I hear Butterfly Kisses at a wedding one more time, I will probably vomit.

  Girls With Slingshots, FTW!!  
  
  FI and I actually were throwing around the idea of doing our first dance to "Every Breath You Take"... just to be ironic (because by now, most people know that it's about a stalker).

  When I was looking up Father Daughter dance songs, almost every list has John Mayer's Daughters on there.  Seriously???? Listen to the lyrics....

  I think most songs are okay for a wedding, but I think Eminem is certainly out of place at most...

  Ho hey by the lumineers- I've heard this played at so many ceremony exits. Has no one listened to the actual lyrics?!?!?
  
  I don't think you're right for him, look at what it might have been.
  
  Yep, definitely what we want played while signing our marriage license

  There's an article on TK that has first dance songs that are "fresh" and "surprising" (http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-planning/wedding-music-ideas/articles/20-first-dance-songs.aspx?page=2) and one of the suggestions is Florence and the Machine's "Dog Days are Over."

  
  

  You know, the song with the classically romantic lyrics:

  
  

  Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
  Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
  Leave all your love and your longing behind
  You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
  

  
  

  Also how the hell is a bride and groom supposed to dance to this song. How does anyone dance to this song.

  I really love that Thousand Years song by Christina Perri, but a) it's used in Twilight and b) I feel like it's going to be the Butterfly Kisses of 2014.

  I like "All of Me" by John Legend, but I worry that it is going to be so overplayed by the time my november wedding rolls around.  I'm kinda sick of it already

  He released a new music video today (it is super sweet in and of itself) and the song is really nice. I feel like it's going to get a ton of airplay, but you might like it.
