Songs Grossly Inappropriate For A Wedding

[Merrick]

So I figure Guns N' Roses "Used To Love Her" and Tom Petty's "You Got Lucky" probably would be inappropriate for any part of a wedding, and Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back" would make for a really lousy wedding march song, but what other songs probably should be banned?

My sister is getting married in a few weeks so I was just thinking of ways to get myself in serious trouble.

[norml]

1. D.O.A.

by Bloodrock

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Anything played by a DJ

Either have live music, or no music.

[philosophie_en_rose]

3. Oops I did it again...

Bye Bye Bye - N Sync

[Deja Q]

4. "Do Me Baby" - Bel Biv Devoe and "Heaven's on Fire" - KISS

:hide:

:yoiks:


Of course, BBV's "Poison" is another winner here. :D

[Fenris]

5. Anything by the Dwarves

Seriously.

[RevCheesehead]

6. "The Wedding Song."

Can someone PLEASE explain the theology behind these lyrics?

"Well then, what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife?
Is it love that brings you here, or love that brings you life?
For if loving is the answer, then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something that you've never seen before?
Oh. There's love."

[KitchenWitch]

20. Never got that either

Make zero sense.

[RevCheesehead]

23. Heh.

I learned to hate that song years ago, back when I was playing for weddings, and not performing them. :)

[Pool Hall Ace]

82. My mother always loved that song.

I always thought it sounded half-assed and made up on-the-spot.

[norml]

7. Don't Hang Up: by 10cc

Hello there
How have you been
I've called a million times
But to me you're never in
I know I never had the style
or dash of Errol Flynn
But I loved you

I'm doing really well
I'm as happy as a lark
I got a new apartment
It's as safe as Central Park
And if they ever mug me
When I'm walking in the dark
Will you know

Don't hang up
Don't hang up

Rolled up in my camera
With the big cheese up above
I stumbled from my stag night
To a never ending limousine

The band went la di da di da
And I got loady do di dodied
Lousy violins began to play
I went no no no
And as the vol-au-vents exploded
I was walking down the aisle the other way

Don't hang up
Don't hang up
Don't say, Oooh
Nobody's safe in our house

Leave me alone
But a but a please
Leave me alone
Just a mo, a minute
I'm so alone

We had
Some honeymoon on itchy bedding
Scum buzzing round your busy body
Dumb waiters waiting sweating straining
All mass-debating my woman

We got a
Bum Guatemala pensione
Crumbling about our ears, Ole
Even the trash man he say

You got a dustbin romance
It's going down the drain
You got a low impedence
She's got a rocky terrain

Oo, you got a lot to learn
Oo, you got a lot to learn
You got a lot to learn about women
A lot to learn about women women
What's to learn about women
We've both got a lot to learn

Surprise surprise
There's a hell of a well in your eyes
Have we won the no Nobel Prize
Has the colour run out of our dies

Surprise surprise
There's a hell of a well in your eyes
When the barman said "What're you drinking?"
I said marriage on the rocks

I know I never had the style
or dash of Errol Flynn
But I loved you

Don't hang up
Don't hang up
Don't say ....

[kid a]

8. I fuckin hate you - godsmack

[Merrick]

11. oh yeah, I remember that one

wouldnt have came up with it on my own though - that's why you ask!

[charlie and algernon]

16. may i add "she fucking Hates me" by Puddle of Mud

[Missy Vixen]

9. Might I submit the following?

"Three Times A Lady" -- evidently, the bride had never listened to the lyrics.

"Beautiful Tonight" -- again, IMHO, the bride was not familiar with the lyrics.

There's always that old chestnut "You're Having My Baby" if things get too quiet...:evilgrin:

Julie

[WCGreen]

10. Loretta Lynn's D.I.V.O.R.C.E.

40. Ah yea, see... Posting on the fly.....

[donheld]

13. Michael Jackson's Beat it

[benburch]

17. Depends on how kinky the wedding is...

:rofl:

[jane_pippin]

14. "I'm not a sicko, there's a plate in my head"

--The Oblivians

[Magrittes Pipe]

81. I ask for your number, but you treat me like a jerk!

You post a Greg Cartwright number in the bad wedding song thread, now you are my hero. :loveya:

[jane_pippin]

86. Ha...

I was contemplating putting up "and then I f*d her," but, thank god, good taste prevailed.

Have you seen the Reigning Sound yet? Go, if you have not. I just saw them in Chicago over the summer and they played a few Oblivians songs. It was heaven under the El tracks.

:loveya: back atcha for being on the Cartwright train in the first place.

[Magrittes Pipe]

88. I saw them in Cleveland 4 years ago when they were touring for...

..."Break Up Break Down," their first record. Saw the Oblivians in Chicago back in the day, and saw the re-formed Compulsive Gamblers at the Empty Bottle about 5-6 years ago.

Carol Schumacher (from The Tough and Lovely -- a friend of dolo amber's and asthmaticeog's) is now playing bass for the RS.

[jane_pippin]

91. Then I must bow down before you

as I've only seen RS--though it was great to see them do Oblivians songs and "Your Happiness," I know it's just not the same.

What a small, weird world.

[Magrittes Pipe]

94. A Wisconsinite into the Oblivians, eh?

So what's your local rock and roll joint? The Cactus Club? Concert Cafe (Green Bay)? That place in Madison that burned down?

[jane_pippin]

95. There are TONS of Oblivians fans here. Wisconsin knows the score.

The Cactus Club is where most things happen but the alderman is giving the owner shit about upgrading the place and it's getting kind of ugly so we're waiting and seeing on that. There's a bigger place on another side of town, Onopa, and they've had good shows there for a while now.

I've never been to the Green Bay places but most people I hang with have. I used to go to O'Cayz in Madison when I lived there but it burned down, of course. They reopened under a different name in a new place but I haven't made it up there yet.

[Magrittes Pipe]

99. I love the Cactus, but it's a death trap.

Onopa is a nice brewpub, but I don't much like it as a venue -- don't like the stage setup.

See, now, I just left Milwaukee (after 8 years) in July. And I never met another Oblivians fan. Okay, I probably ran into you at a show somewhere, but I didn't know that at the time. A friend of mine digs the RS, but he's unaware of the earlier stuff.

Wisconsin knows the score? Really? FFS, I went to the Cactus Club a couple years ago to see Scott Morgan's Powertrane -- Scott Morgan from the Rationals, Scott Morgan the second guitarist in Sonic's Rendezvous Band -- and there was a crowd of about two dozen. Fuckin' depressing.

At least the Dirtbombs show was well-attended.

[jane_pippin]

101. Ok, so we know the score now...

maybe not so much for 8 years prior, but in the last 2-3 things have really come along.
For instance and for what it's worth, all of those Detroit bands came through the CC before they got huge/known and we all lost our little minds dancing. Those Dirtbombs shows got ridiculous. The CC has been renovated a little so it's bigger in the back room but before that happened, when it still looked like a rec. room, I saw the Dirtbombs and somehow part of the ceiling got wrecked from people freaking out.
Danko Jones was just here at Mad Planet and it sold out.
The Black Lips tore up Onopa last spring and will be back again soon. (I agree with you on Onopa-It's not my favorite place to see a show either).
King Kahn & BBQ show up and rip us new ones from time to time.
Miss Alex White and the Red Symphony are coming and so are the Pony's.
Andre Williams is coming soon too.

So, still not perfect, but it's getting way better than it ever was. Of course now I'm blanking out on all the shows I've seen lately. Damned alcohol. It can still be more depressing than not but for the most part I think we get it. I mean, it is Milwaukee after all. It's not exactly a hotbed of hipness.

[RetroLounge]

116. Go to the Cactus on Friday

You don't want to miss The Dark Horse Project...

RL

[jane_pippin]

123. Oh that's the relief show, isn't it? Thanks for the reminder!

I'll be there. :toast:

You should go the next Friday, Oct. 7th too. Miss Alex White puts on a fine show.

[RetroLounge]

134. I'll be at the relief show with Mrs Retro.

Look for us. She's a hot redhead, and I'll be the slightly-graying somewhat-older (According to Rev Cheesehead) Alec Baldwin-looking guy with her.

:hi:

RL

[jane_pippin]

149. Cool. I'll keep an eye out

:hi:

[Chicken Girl]

15. Love Stinks

You love her
But she loves him
And he loves somebody else
You just can't win
And so it goes
Till the day you die
This thing they call love
It's gonna make you cry
I've had the blues
The reds and the pinks
One thing for sure...

[DanCa]

18. hmmm ugly kid joe springs too mind.

I hate everything about you by ugly kid joe

[JVS]

19. Hey Joe!

21. I Think I'm Gonna Kill Myself

by Buddy Knox....it's a hoot, but would tank at a wedding.

[Doctor_J]

22. "If you want to be happy for the rest of your life...

...don't make a pretty woman your wife"

[ghostsofgiants]

24. "White Wedding" by Billy Idol seems like it would be quite out of place

[tuvor]

43. That was my feeling when they played it at my cousin's wedding in '86.

Ah, well, Born in the USA is a song about pride in being an American, right?

[ghostsofgiants]

46. People need to learn to listen to the verses, not just choruses

[seemunkee]

89. My brother-in-law was going to put that on the tape he made for ours

Instead he put Dancing with Myself.

[mcctatas]

25. True story...

at my wedding rehearsal dinner (which my fundie in-laws insisted on having at their friggin church), my nearly totally deaf (I shit you not, hearing aids in both ears) father in law gets up to sing a special song for his son, my soon to be husband. For some reason that I have never understood, nor had the nerve to ask, he sang "Daddy's Little Girl" :wtf:. My super cool unitarian pastor was trying so hard to hold back her laughter that I thought she would pass out, and my dad had to leave the room. The Lord moves his followers in mysterious ways I guess:shrug:

[hickman1937]

26. Sting's "Every Breath You Take." It's a stalker song for cryin

out loud. I think that's the name of the song.

[tedoll78]

27. "Me So Horny!"

:rofl:

[alarcojon]

28. After the Love is Gone

classic Earth Wind and Fire tune.

[tedoll78]

29. Another one: "She Works Hard for the Money"

And one more: "Baby Got Back"

:P

[koneko]

30. I Will Always Love You

anyone who watched the Bodyguard (even those who saw it but won't admit to it) know that it's a song about a couple that doesn't stay together. . .

[khashka]

31. A few...

Closer - NIN
Sin - NIN
Don't You Want me Baby? - Human League
Makin' Whoopie - Marlene Dietrich

If I were you I'd go with Makin' Whoopie - funny, cynical and not nasty. Cyndie Lauper did a good cover of it.

Khash.

[alarcojon]

32. I'm Tired

as sung by Madeline Kahn in Blazing Saddles

[Tafiti]

33. Ask BigMcLargehuge.

37. HEY! That was the song I swore to my mother was going to be my

wedding song :D

[LaraMN]

36. Nine Inch Nails, "Closer."

Inappropriate and yet....appropriate....:evilgrin:

[xmas74]

138. I'd play it if I ever got married.

Might as well let everyone know what I plan to do to the groom after the ceremony.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

38. True story:

A former choir director of mine was once asked to play "Your Cheatin' Heart" at a wedding. When he asked why, the couple said that it had been the song playing on the jukebox when they first met.

I swear---people do not listen to the words of songs.

As another poster noted, "Every Breath You Take" is not a love song; it's a song about a vengeful stalker. Yet back when it first came out, you'd get gushy lovers dedicating that song to each other on the radio. Maybe they were actually vengeful stalkers, but it's more likely that they just didn't listen to the words, sort of like the idiots who treated "Born in the U.S.A." as some sort of a Reaganite anthem.

[bliss_eternal]

55. I've never understood why anyone would request

"Every Breath You Take" at their wedding, unless of course she stalked him and he liked it(or vice versa).
:shrug:

LOL!

53. "What I did for Love"

Kiss today goodbye,
The sweetness and the sorrow.
Wish me luck, the same to you.
But I can't regret
What I did for love, what I did for love.
Look my eyes are dry.
The gift was ours to borrow.
It's as if we always knew,
And I won't forget what I did for love,
What I did for love.
Gone,
Love is never gone.
As we travel on,
Love's what we'll remember.

Kiss today goodbye,
And point me t'ward tomorrow.
We did what we had to do.
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for
Love

What I did for
Love

What I did for...

Love
Love is never gone
As we travel one
Love's what we'll remember
Kiss today goodbye.

And point me t'ward tomorrow.

Point me t'ward tomorrow
We did what we had to do.
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for love.
What I did for love.

What I did for love

77. My brother recently talked a DJ into playing that at a wedding

Luckily from what I heard everyone was too drunk to riot despite my brother trying to lead the men in a chorus of "prenup, prenup, we want a prenup!"

[Heidi]

93. I actually love that song . . .

and it beats the heck out of me why any self-sufficient human being would object to a pre-nup, anyway. :shrug:

Right on to your brother, jmm. I think it's a great song. :thumbsup:

72. "Thirsty Dog" by Nick Cave

I know you've heard it all before
But I'm sorry for this three year war
For the setting up of camps
and wire and trenches
I'm sorry for the other night
I know sorry it don't make it right
I'm sorry for things I can't even mention
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
You keep nailing me back into my box
I'm sorry I keep popping back up
With my crazy mouth
and jangling jester's cap
I'm sorry I ever wrote taht book
I'm sorry for the way I look
But there ain't a lot that
I can do about that
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry about the hospital
Some things are unforgivable
That things simply cannot be forgiven
I was not equipped to know how to care
Amnd on the occassions I came up for air
I saw my life and wondered
what the hell I had been living
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry about all your friends
I hope they'll speak to me again
I said before I'd pay for all the damages
I'm sorry it's just rotten luck
I'm sorry I've forgotten how to f**k
It's just that I think my heart
and soul are kind of famished
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
Forgive me, baby but don't worry
Love is always having to
say you're sorry
And I am, from my head
down to my shoes
I'm sorry that I'm always pissed
I'm sorry that I exist
And when I look into your eyes
I can see you're sorry too
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm sitting feeling sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very thirsty in the Sorry Dog
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry
I'm feeling very sorry in the Thirsty Dog

73. Under My Thumb (Rolling Stones), Watching You (by the Police)

[Bossy Monkey]

74. I thought "Suspicious Minds" at the reception was a little inappropriate

at the wedding I attended this weekend, but the DJ was just following orders. My friends are a little eccentric.

"Love Stinks" would be a leading choice for bad songs at the actual wedding.

[alarimer]

75. Charlie Robison's You ain't the best but

You're the best that I can do.

I think that's the title anyway. Seriously inappropriate. One line says "I hope our kids look more like me than you".

76. Too Drunk To Fuck - Dead Kennedys

[xmas74]

139. True story: I have actually heard it at a wedding.

Of course, the theme of the wedding was white trash, it was in a trailer court, the bouquet was dandelions and it just gets worse.

Best wedding ever!

[Danmel]

147. Funny "Too Drunk To Fuck" story

I was in school , living i Boston. I was listening to a local radio station that said they'd play ANYTHING you requested. So, wiseass that I am I called and asked for "Too Drunk to Fuck". The guy laughed and said "You know, I can't play that- but thanks for asking!"

Played at a friend's wedding - my reaction was :wtf:

Go on now go, walk out the door.
Just turn around now, 'cause you're not welcome anymore.
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no not I! I will survive!
Oh, as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive.
I've got all my life to live,
And I've got all my love to give,

I'll survive, I will survive!

110. I used to love her... Guns-N-Roses

I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And I can still hear her complain


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I knew I miss her
So I had to keep her
She's buried right in my back yard


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
She bitched so much
She drove me nuts
And now I'm happier this way


I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I used to love her, but I had to kill her
I had to put her
Six feet under
And I can still hear her complain

112. Queen - "Fat Bottomed Girls"

I'm VERY surprised no one has said this one yet!

[Liberalynn]

113. Saw an article on a smiliar topic

which had songs that are played at weddings and probably shouldn't be. One I completely agreed with is Sting's "I'll Be Watching You." The author of the article said it sounds more like a Stalker's anthem and is more about an unatural obsession, rather than true love. I admit, I agree with the author.

It was also used in an episode of Profiler as a Stalker's anthem by the way.

That episode is not on DVD by the way cause Sting asked for too much money in reimbursement so the DVD producers just dropped that episode.

So anyway my vote is not playing "I'll be Watching You" at weddings. Far too creepy.

114. Onward Christian Soldiers

"marching as to war..."

[TallahasseeGrannie]

115. American Woman.

[RetroLounge]

117. Lyle Lovett - She's No Lady She's My Wife

We actually used it as our first dance at our wedding as a joke, and watched the faces around us as it registered what the song was. :rofl:

119. Loverboy - "Turn me loose"

[NewJeffCT]

120. "So What" by the Anti-Nowhere League

One verse:

And I sucked sweets,
And I sucked rock
And I even sucked an old man's cock
So What, So What
And I've fucked a sheep
And I've fucked a goat
I've had my cock right down its throat
So What, So What
So What, So What, you boring little cunt, who cares, who care’s what you do!?
Who care’s, who cares about you?
you, you, you, YOU

122. "Every Breath You Take"

I've heard of this being played for the first dance. Yeesh. Scary.

[Liberalynn]

144. That's the one I was thinking of too

only I was thinking of the lyric "I'll be Watching You" when I posted earlier, and accidentally put that down as the title.

I agree that song is scary and not a good choice. Unless one or the other of the spouses is planning on keeping the other locked in a basement for constant study. ;-)

Sorry if anyone here used that song at their wedding. JMHO.

124. "Wedding Song" by Psychedelic Furs

play another wedding song
a wedding song goes on and on
see the churches falling down
this is only in your mind
we're useless
we're useless

all their dresses stand so white
all the brides are all in white
play another wedding song
a wedding song goes on and on
we're useless
we're useless

walking on the paper ruins
shoes and rice and one two three
picking through the plastic ruins
of my useless memory
make a line of useless women
make a line of useless men
love me love me love me love
again again again again

we're useless
we're useless
completely

[Sugar Smack]

126. I think we know of at least ONE other song

that would do the trick *heh, heh* ;-)

[no name no slogan]

127. Absolutely

My cousin is getting married this weekend-- maybe I can still convince him to use that "other song" in his ceremony?

129. Just break out all the teen pop music

Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake...really get the crowd gagging.

130. Woman,Woman-Gary Puckett and the Union Gap

In fact, if you hear the DJ play any Gary Puckett song, storm the DJ booth and pull out as many plugs as posssible.


Woman oh woman
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind
Something's wrong between us
That your laugher cannot hide
And you're afraid to let your eyes meet mine
And lately when I love you, I know you're not satisfied
Woman oh woman
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind
I've seen the way men look at you
When they think I don't see
And it hurts to have them think that you're that kind
But it's knowing that you're looking back
That's really killing me
Woman oh woman
Have you got cheating on your mind, on your mind
A woman wears a certain look
When she is on the move
And a man can always tell what's on her mind
I hate to have to say it
But that look's all over you
Woman oh woman
Have you got cheating on your mind
Oh woman oh woman
Have you got cheating on your mind...

133. The march from Lohengrin that plays at almost EVERY wedding

For cripes' sake, why do people play that at weddings? Else breaks her vow and winds up dead. She and Lohengrin, their marriage, their future, it's all DOOMED! And this is how people start their marriages out? Yikes!

Well, that or...
"Paradise by the Dashboard Lights"
"All Along The Watchtower"
"The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald"

[Briarius]

146. hey!

"Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" as the last song at our reception! Granted we are weird, but everyone was up dancing and singing along :D

[CanuckAmok]

135. Gwar's "Sick of You":

Your socks they smell, your feet they stink,
You never take a bath.
Your nose it runs, you bust your buns,
You always finish last.

Sick! (Sick) Of!
(Of) Youuuuu.
I'm so sick, so sick of you.
Your face is gross, you eat white toast,
You don't know what to do.
It's just your luck, you really suck,
That's all - I'm sick of you

(Bring it down... I said bring it down! Thank you)
Don't ya know? So sick of you.
Things you say, and all the things you do.

Human filth.. Sick!

136. "Under my Thumb," The Rolling Stones

137. Frank Zappa - "Ms. Pinky"

Actually, pretty much every Zappa song about a "lonely person device" would qualify!

140. Song for the Dumped

By the late great Ben Folds Five

[Arkana]

142. "99 Problems But The Bitch Ain't One."

I forget who wrote it, but it's an absolutely horrible little rap ditty (as redundant as that is).

[CBHagman]

143. "Read about Love" by Richard Thompson

Come to think of it, a lot of songs by Richard Thompson are just bound to put the wedding party and the guests in the wrong frame of mind.

And if various exes of the bride and groom are in attendance, you can't go wrong with "It Makes No Difference" by the Band. This is only recommended for bona fide sadists, though.

[Liberalynn]

145. The Monkees: Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow

"Look out here comes tomorrow
that's when I have to choose
how I wish I could borrow someone else's shoes.

I see all kind's of sorrow
wish I only loved one,
Look out here comes tomorrow
oh how I wish tomorrow would never come."

[Penndems]

148. Anything ever sung by Leonard Cohen

His songs aren't exactly conducive to joy and merrymaking. :(
