I know this topic comes up from time to time so just wanted to add that I think that the untitled from Oklahoma City 03 would be great for a wedding. Great song and great version...especially the end.

    While I disagree that this would be a great wedding song, I did post in the Outside Lands review how much I really miss the Untitled intro into MFC ... I always thought it was brilliantly done.

    To clarify, I think this would be good for the reception...not the actual wedding ceremony.

    so a first dance or a reception intro song ... I got that, just think it's a bit forced if you went that route.

  • if you can switch the meaning of "lies" from fibbing to laying down, you could use better man...but i still wouldn't recommend it

    Not saying I would do it ;) but I think its better than Long Road and some of the other suggestions that usually get tossed around in these threads.

    Just Breathe is soon to become the staple pearl jam wedding song...
    Further back and forth a wave will break on me, today...
  • Not sure about a first dance song... but Golden State has become a fav for my wife and I. Also I have quoted Hail, Hail in two best man speeches...

  • How about Thin Air?

    I'm hoping to sell my fiance on Thin Air as our "first dance" song. I plan on subtly playing it on the ipod tomorrow on the way out of town and then mentioning how great a song I think it would be . . .

    He's shot down everything else so far, so here's hoping :D

  • It's a nice song. I really lke it. But it is too depressing for me to imagine it being played at a wedding. I like to here funk at weddings. I put it on a mixed tape for a girl when I was in high school.
    TDR
  • I wanted Thin Air for my wedding song, my wife won out with her choice, And I love her, by The Beatles.

    I don't think anyone should try to force a PJ song into their wedding dance. The two don't go together well.

    No they do not. But Yellow Ledbetter is always great to close out the reception (I've been to 5 weddings that closed out the reception with Ledbetter, including mine). I wanted to use Betterman as a first dance just for the sheer comedic value but people take first dances way too seriously.
