Only You, the Yazoo version.

Breakfast at Tiffany’s probably.

And Thankyou by Dido.

Chop suey - system of a down. Hardly romantic Grin

It reminds us of a road trip we took in our early days. It always makes us giggle when we sing along badly

God Only Knows by The Beach Boys and Good Riddance by Green Day - it was playing as we said goodbye to each other before he went to Afghanistan with the army and the words seemed strangely appropriate.

We don't have one.

But we have a TV show theme - the song from The Detectorists.

That's normal, right?

Into My Arms by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, because I'm a Christian and DH is not, and because we both adore Nick Cave & TBS.

Such Great Heights by Iron & Wine for our schmaltziest moments.

It’s great when we’re together - Finlay Quaye

Maroon five 'what lovers do' I think it's called!

londonrach · 19/01/2019 19:55

You need a song. Is this a new thing.

Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon
There is a story behind it.

Thorn in my side

Not really, we don't have one. We don't even remember what our "first dance" song was at our wedding; we were drunk, it was late and someone asked the dj to play a song and we just sort of shuffled on the dance floor for a few minutes!

lessthanBeau · 19/01/2019 20:23

B.o.b. ft rivers Cuomo Magic, we're both weezer fans, as we were leaving the pool in Vegas to go get married (with Elvis at a drive thru in a pink caddilac) it came on over the sound system, so its our song now. Its not something you plan to have, it just happens.

Ilnome · 19/01/2019 20:27

My moon - mary lambert - its a night time song if ever I heard one (not in a naughty way

gentlyscented · 19/01/2019 22:38

How long will i love you by ellie goulding and I've got a feeling by black eyed peas.
Did a mash up of them for our first dance.

frugalkitty · 19/01/2019 22:55

Alanis Morrisette 'Head over Feet'..... not exactly a first dance song, so we had 'She' for our first dance!

I Love LA - not because we’ve been but we both love Randy Newman and Naked Gun (we watched the box set in our first couple of months dating).

We have a whole Spotify playlist of ‘our songs’ for long car journeys but I Love LA is always played first Grin

KatyaZamolodchikova · 19/01/2019 23:20

Haha, reading these makes me happy we’re not the only ones with an, erm, unconventional, our song.

Ours is Rage Against The Machine, Killing in the Name.

We got tickets to see them in London as mates and booked two single rooms in a hostel for the weekend. A couple of weeks before we phoned to see if we could change it to one double 😂.

We did not end up seeing them in the end as he was dying of summer cold.

We’re getting married this year, and although we will play it (late, when most of our family will be drunk) we agreed it’s probably not an appropriate first dance song so have picked something else beautiful and meaningful and considerably less sweary!
