The song "YOU ARE" was used during my wedding.. They played it instead of "here comes the bride"..

I love this song.... people thought it was strange to have that song on such an important day.. but hey.. Pearl Jam has been important to me in some very dark times.. so on a happy day like this they just had to be there as well..
I wish I was a neutron bomb, for once I could go off

    That's pretty sweet. "Here comes the bride" is such a lame and over used song.

    I'm playing Evolution at my funeral. At the wedding is parabol/a By tool and You are, Riot act and Yellow Ledbetter.
    That's two things we've got, Tape and Time.

    Do The Evolution as a funeral song? I was thinking more like Can't Keep...

    That is so cool! PJ at your wedding. Really appropriate song too! Sorry this is turning in to a funeral music thread, but mine's gonna be Say hello 2 Heaven (lame I know)

    Thats really cool bout the song for your wedding. I actually used a lyric from that song to put on something from when my parents got remarried.

    "Love is a tower and you're the key.
    Leading me higher. When you let me in."

    I cant wait to use some cool PJ music someday when I get married:) Congrats!

    That's awesome! We did the same (come on, I mean ANYTHING other than here come's the bride!), incorporated songs that really mean something to us, and it was PERFECT. :)
