Our was Ray Charles ' Come Rain or Come Shine'. We danced to it in the courtyard garden of the place we had our smallish reception. It was lovely!

Our first dance song was Annie's Song by John Denver, for many personal reasons. Now our youngest, born 15 years after our wedding and turning 6 soon, loves it and sings it often around the house Grin

Bestfriend by Queen.

Didn't have a first dance. But 'our song' is California Dreaming by The Mamas and The Papas. We sang it when dating in the early days, climbing Etna Smile

Strangers in the night by Sinatra.
Our first kiss was about 10 minutes after meeting each other, so it kind of made sense.

Aloe blacc you make me smile

MrsDavidBowie · 18/05/2014 19:38

Iggy pop the passenger. No romantic smooching here

Savage garden - I knew I loved you before I met you Smile

Our song is Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. The lyrics are lovely. Makes me smile whenever I hear it.

tilliebob · 18/05/2014 19:41

noisytoys · 18/05/2014 19:45

No Matter What by Boyzone. Totally cheesy

Groovester · 18/05/2014 19:45

Stevie Wonder - You are the sunshine of my life. In our early days, I got drunk and sang this to my DH. He thought it was hilarious.

MirandaWest · 18/05/2014 19:49

Didn't have a song with XH but with my boyfriend our song is Four Simple Words by Frank Turner :)

Don't really have a "song" but chose Van morrison's Have I told you lately? for first dance as the lyrics are nice and it was quite slow to dance shuffle to:
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

For the morning sun in all it's glory
Meets the day with hope and comfort too
You fill my life with laughter, somehow you make it better
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love less defined
And its yours and its mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

There's a love less defined
And its yours and its mine
Like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

Take away all my sadness, fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do

And he does indeed Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness...Ease my troubles, that's what you do

Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. Love that song.

somedizzywhore1804 · 18/05/2014 19:57

Let's Stay Together by Al Green.... Lovin' you whether, times are good or bad, happy or sad.... Smile

insancerre · 18/05/2014 19:58

Our first song was Marian by sisters of mercy I'm 1987
We danced to last weekend at our local goth night :)

TiaDalma · 18/05/2014 20:03

First dance was is his love by white snake, had never heard of it myself but watching dh well up when he listened to it made it a no brainer :)

TiaDalma · 18/05/2014 20:03

Is this love rather

hugoagogo · 18/05/2014 20:06

Our 'song' is Wonderwall

Off to listen to some sisters of mercy Grin

Ladyofthehouse · 18/05/2014 20:09

Van Morrison These are the days was our first dance song.....not too romantic and beautiful words. Also yet to find anyone else to have it! To be honest wanted van singing have I told you lately but it had recently been played at my uncles funeral so would have been inappropriate, my dad found this song and we both loved it. Always brings a tear to my eye!

Bettycakes80 · 18/05/2014 20:10

Our first dance was The Flamingo's 'I only have eyes for you'

PrincessOfChina · 18/05/2014 20:11

We had The You and Me Song by the Wannadies. I have a print of the lyrics in our bedroom.
