Tunes With Feeling

[duke_orsino]

So we went to a wedding last weekend (NY), and will be heading to another one this weekend (CT). Naturally, talk turned to our own planned event. It looks as though it will be September 9, 2006 in Tucson

I got around it by not having dancing. :) We had our reception at the Montshire Museum instead, and hired a chamber trio to play in the corner.

I've been listening to the Underworld soundtrack right now, but am guessing that REV 22:20 would not be appropriate. ;)

Well, what kind of dance are you going to do? We did a swing dance, so our criterion was "a swing song that isn't too long." I think ours was called "Three O'Clock Jump," but I wouldn't swear to it.

If you just want a sway-back-and-forth slow dance, I've always thought "Somebody" by Depeche Mode would make a great first dance for the slightly irreverent. And I love that song.

I think my first dance was probably to one of the songs on the animated Robin Hood movie record. Yes, record, I have it on vinyl where it sits amngst other treasured records that my father had when he was in college. I used to listen to _my_ first record all the time. I'm certain it was my first dance song, I could sing all of the songs on it and annoyed my parents playing them over and over again.

Though that may not be what you meant for you "event." :)

Heh. I recall this was a matter of contention for me and Mrs. shmike. Music, being as important to me is it is (though probably much differently than it is for most), I wanted to find something that was heavily meaningful for the both of us
