_A Rainy Night In Soho_ by The Pogues. (First thing that came to my mind.) ---

there are only two possibilities! Billy Idol’s White Wedding or MeatLoaf’s Paradise by the Dashboard Light! ---

“The New Zero” by Rasputina has a beautiful melody as does “You Must Love Me” from Evita I’ll find way to work them both in when the time comes for Harborwolf and myself. ---

I dunno where I’d fit it in, but “Love Don’t Need A Reason” is a beautiful song. I have no idea who wrote it, though. I just heard it on a choral compilation once. ---

**racinchikki** , I feel so unoriginal! That was “my song” with my ex. As for any future songs, I don’t know. Currently, anything by Guns N’ Roses (i.e. “My Michelle” :)) or The Pixies would be great. ---

Right now I’m leaning towards “Everything” by Ben Harper, but we’ll definitely have to think about it! First thought, he needs to propose!! 😃 ---

I would definitely want my theoretical husband’s input, but I like Tori Amos’ cover of Led Zeppelin’s “Thank You” or Van Morrison’s “Sweet Thing.” My brother and his wife entered the reception hall to the sound of trumpets playing the Darth Vader theme from STAR WARS. Now THAT was incredibly cool. ---

Not that I’ve ever really thought about it, since I’ll have plenty of time assuming I ever decide to get married. Possibly “Love Stinks” just to get a rise from the crowd. Or if I wanted to clear the room out, “Springtime for Hitler”. The only people who would speak to me again would be those that get the joke.(Now you can see why I’m not married) ---

My nomination for Worst Choice Ever: A Wiccan couple that I knew used Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ [_I Put A Spell On You_](http://www.songlyrics.com/song-lyrics/Pete_Townshend/Miscellaneous/I_Put_A_Spell_On_You/159550.html). Way to look past the title. After an ominous start like that, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that they aren’t married anymore. ---
