Default What's your first dance song?

Wanted to see what you girls plan to use as your first dance song. I have been looking and looking but no luck yet. I really like that new Alicia Keys song, "No One" but that's just a thought. I am in love with "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Israel Kamakawiwo but I don't know if its appropriate or not. I have to read into the lyrics more. If you haven't heard that song go onto youtube and check it out. Its so beautiful!

Our first dance is going to be to Snow Patrol's Chasing Cars. Somewhere Over the Rainbow is a beautiful song and I think several people on here are using it for their song.

What kind of music do you like? Are you opposed to country?

We are dancing to "I'll back you up" by Dave Matthews Band. Do you have any songs that are special to the two of you?

I am still pondering this one, I have a couple in mind though and they are country- Rascall Flatts, but I could still change my mind...

We used the song More by Harry Connick Jr. We had been having trouble thinking of a song when we went to his concert a few years ago, and he opened with this song. As soon as we heard the first line, we looked at each other and said, "that's it", we just knew.

We used Love of My Life by Dave Matthews and Santana..

Matt is a huge Dave Matthews fan and we've been to a few concerts together. We liked the hispanic flare that Santana's guitar brought to it.. our DJ shortened it to about 3 mintues and then went straight into Hips Don't Lie by Shakira (inside friend's joke)

I am absolutely in love with Alicia Key's "No One", but Matt refuses. I am working on it. If not that, I will let him pick something. Probably Frank Sinatra or a classic like that. I have a really hard time with this one and AK song is the only one that I think fits...

Default Re: What's your first dance song?

some really good choices so far! i'm not a huge country person and we don't have any specific songs that are sentimental to us so we can go anywhere with this. i think we might do our slow dance and then choreograph a "fun" surprise dance to a catchy song. this was my fiancé's idea!
