Inappropriate Wedding Songs

[soundscapes]

Young hearts run free

[Nakatomi]

At a wedding last year I'll never forget - a bridesmaid asked me to play Sash - Encore Un Fois for the bride who wanted to dance with her ex husband. See what she did there? Anyway she really did - they really went for it & everybody took it in good spirits as was intended.

Last wedding I played I was told by the DM it was the bride's 3rd wedding... Did I ever see this request coming.. The Commodores - 3 times a lady

Band Of Gold - Freda Payne (Title's ok but not the lyrics!)

Confuses a lot of people that one, until you explain it to them.

I did once get asked to play "It should have been me" by Yvonne Fair. I politely declined.

[Steven]

Probably the worst one LLoyd - Dedication to my Ex (especially the non radio edit!)

[yourdj]

"we found love" in a hopeless place.

"we found love" in a hopeless place.

Hardly inappropriate. Come on Toby-Get with the plan!

U2 - Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.

[Benny Smyth]

John Mayer - Slow Dancing In A Burning Room

[yourdj]

Come on Toby-Get with the plan!

Have you listened to the lyrics, its about he ending a relationship.
I would class that as inappropriate at a DJ geek level, considering its one of the biggest wedding floor fillers this decade.

I clearly wasn't paying close enough attention to the lyrics then. I just thought they found love even though they were in a hopeless place! Ho hum

I dont know tbh, its not very obvious if she is giving up or its not working etc.
He could be already married or in prison or something and its not feasible to do anything, so I may be wrong??
I was focusing on gotta let it go bit and hopeless place, she has tried her best and is giving up sort of vibe?

Yellow diamonds in the light
And we're standing side by side
As your shadow crosses mine
What it takes to come alive
It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place

Shine a light through an open door
Love and life I will divide
Turn away 'cause I need you more
Feel the heartbeat in my mind
It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
But I've gotta let it go

We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
We found love in a hopeless place
Yellow diamonds in the light

And we're…
