At my wedding we had this from phantom of the opera sang in the church. There wasnt a dry eye in the house...

No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.

Say you'll love me ev'ry waking moment;
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.

Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.

All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.

Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you want me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
that's all I ask of you.

Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.

Say the word and I will follow you.
Share each day with me, each night, each morning.

Say you love me ...
You know I do.

Together:
Love me, that's all I ask of you ...
Love me, that's all I ask of you.

To Make You Feel My Love by Garth Brooks

TheSonOfBattles · 13-02-2004 01:06AM

Don't know about my wedding, but for my funeral I defo want "The Parting Glass" from the Waking Ned soundtrack. Can't remember who sings it, and can't be arsed checking.

I'd actually consider playing "Nothing Else Matters" at my wedding since someone mentioned it above. Cool song.

DriftingRain · 13-02-2004 01:21AM

Ahhhh for a wedding song! This one is nice:

FOREVER AND FOR ALWAYS
Written by Twain/Lange
In your arms I can still feel the way you
want me when you hold me
I can still hear the words you whispered
when you told me
I can stay right here forever in your arms
And there ain't no way --
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't no way --
and there ain't not how
I'll never see that day....

Chorus:
'Cause I'm keeping you
forever and for always
We will be together all of our day
Wanna wake up every
morning to your sweet face -- always

Mmmm, baby In your heart--I can still hear
a beat for every time you kiss me
And when we're apart,
I know how much you miss me
I can feel your love for me in your heart

And there ain't no way --
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't no way --
and there ain't no how
I'll never see that day....

Repeat Chorus

(I wanna wake up every morning)

In your eyes -- (I can still see
the look of the one) I can still see
the look of the one who really loves me
(I can still feel the way that you want)
The one who wouldn't put anything
else in the world above me
(I can still see love for me) I can
still see love for me in your eyes
(I still see the love)

And there ain't no way --
I'm lettin' you go now
And there ain't no way --
and there ain't no how
I'll never see that day....

Repeat Chorus (2x)

I'm keeping you forever and for always
I'm in your arms

For my funeral.......Free Bird!

Me brother and sister-in-law had From This Moment by Shania Twain. 'Twasn't a song I knew before, but it was lovely.

That one from Phantom of the Opera, above, reads well. What's it called, anyone?

As for Amazed, that was one of the most cringeworthy songs to make it into the charts in the past few years!

DriftingRain · 13-02-2004 01:29AM

From This Moment by Shania Twain

Aye I've heard that one a few times too at weddings!

Seems shes good at makin weddin songs!

:rolleyes:

Indeed she does. Wonder what's going on there, and if her husband, AC/DC producer Mutt Lange, gets upset that no-one uses You Shook Me All Night Long!:D

DriftingRain · 13-02-2004 02:29AM

gets upset that no-one uses You Shook Me All Night Long!

HAHAHAHAHA...That one would be great! Shows some humor and fun!

~DR~

Oriel · 13-02-2004 03:01AM

Possibly, "I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That)"

...But that's only for when I've turned my heels and am halfway down the aisle out of the church.

DriftingRain · 13-02-2004 03:05AM

Hehehehe saw that cow and thought you were dapper sayin that for a moment!

~DR~

Oriel · 13-02-2004 03:11AM

I...I don't know the significance of that...

Indeed.

"She was a fast machine, she kept her motor clean"

and

"She told me to come, but I was already there"

Sure, The Darkness are only trotting in their wake...;)

Zulu · 13-02-2004 10:31AM

Heard a great one on the way into work.

Convoy (sounds like Jonny Cash but don't know who sang - anybody?)

...I'm still sticking to Final Countdown though.

hedgetrimmer · 13-02-2004 10:47AM

"Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails

heh ...just kidding....

I really like the phantom one - I think it's called "All I ask of you"

I think for me it would have to Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight"

All I Ask Of You.

Good song, despite it having been written by Andrew Lloyd Webber (having said that, Diane Warren wrote How do I live and she's the witch responsible for that Titanic song and quite a bit of drivel besides (cough, Chicago 21))

London Cast album has a far better version compared to the single version (you get to miss out on Cliff if you skip the single version:))

full forward · 13-02-2004 12:54PM

AFAIK Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote the music and not the lyrics to All I ask of you.

full forward · 13-02-2004 01:09PM

A few other ideas...

Im a believer The Monkees
Just The Way You Are Billy Joel
That’s Amoré Dean Martin
Can't Help Falling In Love Theme from the Snapper

Gillie · 13-02-2004 03:23PM

Pete Cetera - Glory of Love.

CW McCall

Big hit in the late 70s IIRC.

Yeah, but he's still the devil's spawn. Richard Stilgoe (the one who agreed with fat boy that it'd be a good idea to put people on roller skates and pretend they were trains[1]) wrote the lyrics for the musical, Lloyd-Webber didn't like them so got Charles Hart to re-write most of them. Lyrical credit eventually ran "lyrics by Charles Hart, additional lyrics by Richard Stilgoe". Mike Batt of "Bright Eyes" and Wombles fame wrote some of them as well but didn't receive a credit. I'm actually quite ashamed to know this.

[1]Starlight Express (1984). Dreadful crud

Caesar_Bojangle · 13-02-2004 04:31PM

Suppose it'd have to be Baby Got back - the i like big butts song.

My sister had that at her wedding. At the ceremony. She didn't know the priest was going to play it but he did and it was really sweet.

I don't know what song I'd play at my wedding.....that'll have me thinking all day now....

whatever you do, don't follow the herd with Van Morrison (Have I told you....)

We went for Elvis (Fools Rush In)
