    I realise this is probably a strange place to ask but can anyone help me out ?? [:I]

    One of my best mates is getting married in a few months and we are going crazy trying to get music planned for the night… There is only so many nights i can listen to “Love Song Dedications” on Mix 106.5 before i lose my sanity… [:D] [:D]

    So far we have:

    You’re My Inspiration – Chicago
    Amazed – Lone Star
    How Do I Live (Without You) – Faith Hill
    This Kiss – Faith Hill
    You’re Still The One – Shania Twain
    Escape – Enrique Iglesias
    Hero – Enrique Iglesias
    I Love You – Martina McBride
    The Flame – Cheap Trick

    Help we are running out of ideas !!
    We need about 25 to 30 songs…

    My mate is 31, his wife to be is 23 so we need stuff no older than say 15 years if possible ??

    Any ideas greatly appreciated !! [:)]

    Mel ?? Any thoughts dear ?? [:P] [:0)]

    Cheers,
    Paul…

    Hey Paul .. (sounds like a song)

    OK .. anything by Elvis, Vanessa Amorosi, Dido or even the Dixie Chicks !! Not the Landslide one, the other one .. about the soldier .. (solllljaa)

    If she’s a blonde .. “She drives me crazy with her long blonde hair” .. mmmm showing my age methinks ..

    “Will you save the last dance for me” (girl singer, so it has to be from her to him) .. mmmm age again….

    It’s a bugger having reached 40.

    Ummmm .. how ’bout you send me some detail on how they met. I’d be happy to compose a poem to them from you. Better still, a poem from the Groom to his Bride if he wants some ideas in wooing her for life. She will hold him to any promises though, so we can’t get too carried away.

    Don’t forget the usual best wishes .. as in .. we hope you have 18 children .. 18 boys a football team .. or .. 18 girls a golf course.

    If all else fails you can’t beat “The Shiek from Scrubby Creek” and “I love to have a beer with Duncan” .. nothing to do with a wedding, but it will have the guests laughing. It has to be an occasion to remember!

    Kind regards, Phil

    oh yeah this one will be perfect for the little kids ( you know the ones sliding around on their knees on the dance floor playing air guitar!) and it also fits the criteria, and also rocks out!

    JET – wont you be my girl.

    Hallo darling[:P] (although still waiting on Huey’s approval)

    Why don’t you email some of the announcers on the radio station, or call up a DJ and ask? I listen to music, but I couldn’t tell you the name of anything, or who sings what – it’s just background for me.[:I]

    MiniMogul should be able to help – being in the biz and all!

    Cheers
    Mel

    How about those old Painters & Dockers classics – “I don’t want to make love to you (but you know I probably will)” and “Your turn on top tonight”

    Or not sure of the artist but “Why don’t we get drunk and screw” a classic wedding song if there ever was[}:)][}:)]

    Hi there,

    Luckily for you, I was brought up on a steady diet of ‘Easy Listening 3MP’ etc [:D] sooooo…here are some of my favourites. Yes, they’re classics (like me [}:)][;)]).

    1) Nat King Cole – Fly Me To The Moon (Unforgettable is great too)
    2) SWAY – Bobby Rydell (Dean Martin recordings good)
    3) Lady In Red – Chris De Burgh
    4) Sea Of Love – Honeydrippers
    5) Three times a lady – The Commodores
    6) When a man loves a woman – Percy Sledge (Michael Boulton recording’s okay)
    7) Killing Me Softly – Roberta Flack
    8) When I fall in love – Nat King Cole
    9) You Are So Beautiful – Joe Cocker
    10) Crazy little thing called love – Freddy Mercury (of Queen)

    There is another cd out, by Michael Boobeley (I think the spelling of his surname is wrong – [:I]), who’s voice is very good and he sings some of the oldies.
    There are heaps more, but I hope this gets you out of a bind.

    Cheers
    Sooshie [:)] (a true romantic at heart [:X])
