wedding planning , U2

[RickFly]

my fiance and i are planning our wedding. and we would like everyones input on what the first dance song should be.
right now we are thinking,

all i want is you - the edited shorter version
when the stars go blue - bono and the corrs.

any other suggestions?

what about other songs during the ceremony? possible instrumental versions? wedding reception music?
what u2 songs would be best?

If You Wear That Velvet Dress or With Or Without You

Congratulations to you both RickFly and may your wedding and the rest of your lives together be really happy.

 

[RickFly]

thank you hanover!!!

 

[teehee]

I think All I Want Is You is the best wedding song. Maybe Promenade?

 

[RickFly]

right now, all i want is you is the first dance song.

 

[celia]

Yeah I think All I Want Is You is the perfect choice for the first dance Congratulations!

 

[tiny dancer]

I agree with everyone else about All I want Is You. Another song you might want to add is the The Sweetest Thing.

 

[RickFly]

i love the swetest thing but the only downside is the lyric when bono goes "im loosing you".

 

[* MoFo *]

nah its gotta be miami!

 

[sharky]

Eh, who cares about the I'm losing you part. All I Want is You is a tormented love song too. You want this this and this but all I want is you. at least that's my interpretation.

 

[typhoon]

They're all a bit darker than the average love song. Just the nature of Bono's lyrics. "All I Want Is You" is your best bet, since it seems appropriate lyrically and is a beautiful song in its own right.

 

[RickFly]

true there really isnt a u2 love song, as you would normally hear a love song. i always thought of them as the anti-love song, love song.

 

[Elvis Presley]

congrats Rick, I too am getting married soon, and I too live in cincy, I also vote for AIWIY

 

[RickFly]

awesome elvis, congrats!!!! where in cincy are you from, if you dont mind me asking?

 

[madonna's child]

I'm always recommending Ultraviolet for these wedding threads, it's my favorite U2 "love" song. Bono really doesn't write many.

 

[celia]

Maybe Bono will write a really happy love song on the next album.... or maybe not

 

[RickFly]

i would love to get an instrumentation of miss sarajevo.
