Musical input welcome, but not necessarily going to be acted upon!

[OldBlueLady]

So, as some of you know, I will be tying the knot again in October, and we've been set the task of coming up with some music to have playing in the background both for the ceremony and during the meal. We've managed to sort out the music for earlier on, and are part way through stuff for while people are dining.

Purpose of my post is to ask if anyone has any suggestions for decent background music. We want a mixture of 60s, 70s and 80s music that is both meaningful and isn't obvious, and, in particular, I'm looking for a Beatles track that's not middle of the road but would be suitable for the occasion. Top choice atm is "And I love her."

Cricko, I'm particularly looking at you here as yours and my musical tastes often cross over, but anyone's suggestions would be most welcome. We've got a bit of Madness, Barry White, Searchers etc so far, but the floor is open for ideas...

 

[TrueBlue]

Napalm Death

Thanks Pauly, that shall go on the "to be approved" list. Scott's......won't :nope: I struggle with the fact Kev doesn't like mainstream, so Seal's "Kiss from a rose" is a no go!

surely a bit of classical is appropriate or the meal .. something stringsy ?? let me think a minute

 

[OldBlueLady]

I am NOT having anything metal!!! Or gay!!! :nope:

We want upbeat, fun, but meaningful, not stuff about dead foetuses and stuff!

My ears are bleeding from the intro! And Lee, something classical and stringsy sounds right up my street
We thought this would be perfect...

Lol Jackie, there has been a bit of debate over Love me for a Reason but the lyrics aren't great! Why might be a bit cheesy, I'll see what he says!

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

another way of saying "For better or worse" and "in sickness and in health" could be "with leprosy" or "without leprosy" .. On the subject of which a game of football between two colonies of lepers descended into violence after one player left his foot in after a tackle

You could just fill the entire meal up with grindcore.
