What record would you like played first at your wedding reception?

[NB Spotify is helping me out re: all the above bands/songs so no need to explain!]

SC3 was our first dance, but not The First Dance, to be fair. it was quite late in the evening by the time it came on and we hit the floor.

the ceremony music wasn't that well known, I guess, but rather than have the usual tasteful (but equally anonymous) classical stuff, we wanted some sounds that were meaningful to us. it wasn't exactly a traditional wedding anyway...

it is mighty difficult trying to make a playlist that will suit toddlers, grannies, wire readers, old punks, ravers and children of the '80s alike.

me and my wife danced to "This Will Be Our Year" by the zombies
weird, was just talking to a friend at work today who wants this to be her wedding song. good choice!

ha my sister and her boyfriend (now husband) played this song at our wedding

it's all about whitehouse - 'my cock's on fire'

"underneath it all" by no doubt

trying to make a playlist that will suit toddlers, grannies, wire readers, old punks, ravers and children of the '80s alike.

this is basically exactly what i have to do for the pre-"disco" playlist. am i going to try? nope! i'm going to fill it with songs we want to hear because this isn't dancing time...

I had to do that too. the pre-disco "dinner" playlist was six hours of martin denny, les baxter, art blakey, mingus, brubeck, tinariwen and iranian classical stuff.

Southall to thread!

idk if 'world at your feet' is for everyone :/
