Music for a wedding

I think it reveales what HighLonesome really thinks of us here at BP that he would come here to try to find out about 80's "chick dance music"! :)

But, anything by the B52s should do the trick.
Since you're in Texas, they might like that "don't hand me no lies, and keep your hands to yourself" song - kind of appropriate for a wedding reception.

Next time you need help with a semi-gay subject..you know where to go.....BP!:) or you could PM Thump - you know he's a homo don't you?

The first version of Laid that I heard was by the band James. The remake sounds like an, "I'm a big pussy rip off of a 70's singer/songwriter."

Go with Thank You by Led Zep and tell her that's as soft as it gets.

I guess that "Hang on Sloopy" and "We don't Give Damn for the Whole State of Michigan" by TBDBITL are out... 80s? uuuooo, thats the height of the BGs and Michael Jackson... tell her to take two aspirin and call back in with a better music age, the 80s are VERY bleak. Of course there's always Willy Nelson's Stardust album. Now that ought to do the trick...

Unfortunately, it is still getting played at every party / reception that i have been to.
plus, there's another one which always gets played too, don't know the name of it - but you stomp and cha-cha or something? I'm sure somebody here (who scored too high on the homo test) knows more about it.:)

I dont know the name of it but i too have been forced into the horror that is the stomp/cha cha song. Every east texas redneck i know plays it when they have some sort of party. They think it gives them street cred or something. :(

Page 3 and no Duran Duran yet?!?! I am offended on behalf of my best friend in HS, who had a full-wall mural of the band installed in her bedroom. It was, like, totally the coolest.

*Class of 1990 RULES!!!!*

What??? No polkas?

My bootcamp bunkie was from Philly and had a college buddy who lived in Shamokin (sp), PA, a big coal mining town about an hour from Indiantown Gap Military Reservation. On our first free Saturday we piled into my VW and headed off to this berg. We got to his friend's place, changed into civies and headed to the town's roller rink.. which on Saturdays became the state's biggest bar. They had a decent local band in covering the top songs of the era, but it seemed like everytime I got up the courage to ask a girl to dance the band would start up with a polka and I'd sit back down. I'm sitting at the bar and feeling cheated. I start out for the third try and I no more than step up off the stool than the band cranks up another polka... two in a row.. I sit back down and not paying any attention to the mammoth miner on my left I say out loud for the whole bar to hear, "What's with this polka shit?"

My buddies tell me that I was absolutely horizontal for about a full second before I hit the floor. They pulled me out, drove the car back to the house and wrapped the left side of my head in plastic bags filled with ice.

These days I look around before expressing my attitude about polkas.

Now that is classic cincibuck. Well, not that you got flattened out.

I have this weird love affair with polkas. They are like 80s chick music to me. You hate them and think they are horrible, but when you are alone you start singing along with them and dancing. I think it was because every Sunday morning my mother listened to polkas from 8am to noon. Or that my brother actually played accordian in a polka band. Or the fact that I knew Frankie Yankovic (The king of polka) as his nephew was best friends with my brother.

Also it is scary that if I don't play at least 3 polkas at my wedding next June that most of my family will be pissed with me... HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you want a nice, slow, classic, sappy wedding song...you can't beat "I Will Be Here" by Steven Curtis Chapman.

I know a bunch of women fighting over who will get to use that song in their wedding (for some reason they think they can't use the same song)...Crazy females. :shake:
