Alternative 'first dance' records

Being a certified Bah Humbug where weddings are concerned, I secretly compile a list of alternative wedding first dance records. My current faves are:
'Let me entertain you' Robbie Williams (I think a routine is compulsory)
'Come Undone' Robbie Williams (I love the idea of the bride screaming 'I am scum!')
'Debaser' The Pixies
''911 is a joke' Public Enemy
'Hurt' Johnny Cash
'Windowlicker' Aphex Twin
'Heroin' Velvet Underground
'Sorted for Es and Wizz' Pulp
God the list goes on. Can anyone add inspiration?

One more and then I'm definitely going to do the washing-up...

Kiss With a Fist - Florence and the Machine

You Know I'm No Good - Amy Winehouse

Bowels of Love - Therapy? (this. In fact, anything off their Infernal Love CD would be just peachy)

Wish You Dead - Curve

When DH married his first wife they wanted The Lambada but the DJ didnt have that so they had Sexual Healing by Marvin Gaye. One verse in and his mum said "I think that is enough now" and asked the DJ to turn it off.

We had "Time of my Life" from Dirty Dancing.

Fancied "Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I am yours" by Stevie Wonder though.

But then I wanted to walk down the aisle to "What's that coming over the hill, is it a monster".

That one.... possibly my chemical romance that has the line 'the grooms bride is a whore' in it.

scarletlilybug · 31/03/2010 22:41

Yesterday - The Beatles

piratecat · 31/03/2010 22:45

rofl!!!

notsochickchickchicken · 31/03/2010 22:50

Kelis- I hate you so much right now, or Milkshake

Any song with a name in that is not the name of the bride or groom would be quite random.

Snorbs · 01/04/2010 16:32

"Kelis- I hate you so much right now"

SPBInChocolate · 01/04/2010 16:35
