If anyone here listens to punk...

Can you help me come up with some love songs for me wedding?

I am all about the punk rock. Are there any certain bands or styles that you are leaning towards.

 

Some of my choices would be

 

Leatherface "I Can't Help Falling in Love"

Rancid "Corazon de Oro"

Jawbreaker "Jinx Removing"

Ramones "I Love Her So" or "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend"

Tiger Army "Cupid's Victim"

The Casualties "Punk Rock Love"

Social Distortion "Let it be Me"

Alkaline Trio "You've Got So Far To Go"

The Dead Milkmen "Punk Rock Girl"

 

I am sure I can think of more when I get the proper amount of coffee in me. Its too f'ing early on a Sunday and I am at work.

I will have to ask my husband on this one he is all about the punk and used to be in a punk rock band so I will have to get back to you on this one

Have you ever heard "We" by The Descendents? I'm using that song for our wedding dvd slideshow. It's cute as hell!

I agree with "Punk Rock Love"

How about

"Silly Girl" ...descendents

"Ever Fallen in Love"...buzzcocks

"I'm Glowing and You're the Reason"...braid

"I Wanna Be Your Dog"...Sid

"I Love Ya, Ya Dummy"...magazine

"Chesterfield King"...jawbreaker

"Do You Know What I Love the Most"...saves the day

"You're the One I Want"...jets to brazil

"Mrs You and Me"...smoking popes

"I Caught Fire"...the used

"Love Comes in Spurts" !...richard hell & voidoids

"I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend"...ramones

"Oh Oh I Love Her So"...ramones (actually, about a gazillion ramones songs)

"She's Like Heroin to Me"...gunclub

"This Is Not a Love Song"...pil (my personal favorite)

"Today I Met the Girl I'm Gonna Marry"..nation of ulysses

"Sugar Sugar"...the germs

"Mary White House"...adicts

"G.I.R.L."...adicts

"Tango"...adicts

"Forever"...dropkick murphys

"Stay, New Girl"...suicide machines

"Wonderful"...the benjamins

"Love Story"...T.S.O.L

"Last Caress"...misfits

"I Love You"...black flag

"I Like You Cause You Look Like Me"...the ponys

"Do Your Feet Hurt" and "Andrea"...mxpx

"Your Name is Tattooed on My Heart"...screeching weasel

 

and, duh..."Marriage"...descendents

 

Also, there's a CD called Cupid's Revenge-The World's Most Romantic Love Songs

 

Here's the track listings

 

 

1. I Got You Babe - The Dictators

2. I Have a Date - The Simpletons

3. In Your Eyes - The Circle Jerks

4. Jealous Again - Black Flag

5. If You Love Somebody, Set Them on Fire - The Dead Milkmen

6. Johnny Hit and Run Pauline - X

7. Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell - Iggy and the Stooges

8. Rosemary - The Dickies

9. Summer Nights - The Vandals

10. Do You Want Me on My Knees - The Nuns

11. Just Lust - Buzzcocks

12. I Need Somebody - Iggy and the Stooges

13. Sit on My Face Stevie Nicks - The Rotters

 

 

Anyway, one of my favorite AK3 songs is "Blue in the Face." I don't think the words are so compatible, but the melody would be such a great first dance song.

Hope this helps!

Wow, I'm not alone. My secret as a wedding videographer is that I love punk rock and I slip a little punk attitude into all my wedding videos. Is this song for the video? I just used one of my favorite instrumentals in a video. Probably more "alternative" than "punk"

 

Yoga Means Union - Ambulance LTD

 

I think the dynamics of this song are custom made for a wedding, and no pesky words to get in the way. A lot of punk love songs are actually about heartbreak so you gotta be careful.

 

I would love to do a video using the Ramones "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend". Especially because it's from the groom's point of view. Other songs that come to mind.

 

Love Song - The Damned

What Is This Feeling Called Love - Wire

Fell in Love With a Girl - White Stripes

 

I've always wanted to do a wedding day edit to this song:

 

Young Lions - the Constantines

I forgot all about Chesterfield King. Such a great song.
Nothing says I love you like the Misfits. Kind of hard to choos which one of their songs is more romantic though between "Last Caress" or "Skulls"
And the Screeching Weasel is just sexy music. I might go with "I Wanna Be Naked" though myself.

Thank you all so much!!! Im going to have a lot of CD searching/downloading to do!! LOL

FI is a hufe metal head so if anyone can think of any metal songs too let me know (not 80s hair metal, more like thrash/death metal stuff.)

Not a whole lot of romance in that genre

A few that come to mind are...........

"Sanctuary" Sick of it All
"Before Dishonor" Hatebreed
"Tangerine" Life of Agony

haha I know! But I thought I should atleast try just for him! Picking the song for the first dance is gonna be so freaking hard!!
