I know it’s probably asking too much, but please tell me the bride’s name is Fiona.
Lyle Lovett, She’s No Lady:
Soft Cell’s “Tainted Love” seems like a no-brainer. And Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart” is probably too depressing to play all the way through, but I think going far enough into it to hear the iconic keyboard lick would bring some smiles.
“You picked a Fine Time to Leave me Lucille”
You can’t hope to dance to it, but Spike Jones seems to havethe best rendition of I Went To Your Wedding.
Weird Al Yankovic – One More Minute
“I’d rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass,
Than spend one more minute with you.”
If only.

“This Diamond Ring” by Gary Lewis and the Playboys
“Band of Gold” by Freda Payne
Good choices. They also remind me of my favorite “sounds happy, actually dark” song - The Cyrkle’s “Red Rubber Ball”.
Lynn Anderson, for the approximately zero people who care.
Dixie Chicken, for the gold.
Followed by Confederate Railroad, Trashy Women, a little Sawyer Brown, Some Girls Do to even the score, a little more Sawyer Brown, The Race is On, or if you’re a traditionalist, George Jones.
Then, to round it all off, Beer for my Horses.
If they don’t like country, that just makes is all more inappropriate.
Jimmy Buffet: Why don’t we get drunk and screw?
The Beatles: Why don’t we do it in the road?
First I look at the Purse
It’s got a nice beat and you can dance to it.
Never Say Never by Romeo Void is also a contender. Key lyrics the chorus of “I might like you better if we slept together.”
Bad Touch by Bloodhound Gang
Band of Gold.
Having My Baby.

One Less Bell to Answer
Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town
I never worked out a melody to this one, but if someone wants to, feel free to use it. I bring this out when people ask me why I don’t write love songs…
LOVE DEEP DOWN
COPYRIGHT MR 2010 by Sam A. Robrin or whoever the hell it is who writes these things. Go ahead and use it, but if you make a little money on it, I want some!
- Every time I hold her hand,
I’ll be reminded of
That little gold-and-diamond band—
The symbol of our love.*
My love for you
Goes deep down, too—
Way deep down, and all the way through.
The path of love may twist and bend,
But things come out right in the end.*
I wanted to ask her to marry me,
And planned out a little surprise.
It always warms up my heart to see
That look of delight in her eyes.
It occurred to me that it might be nice
To freeze the ring in a cube of ice.
I asked her to come to my house that night.
Cooked a dinner to please a king.
Served cocktails for two by candlelight,
And gave her the one with the ring.
"For a special lady: a special drink."
And she did—exactly what you think.
My love for you
Goes deep down, too—
Way deep down, and all the way through.
The path of love may twist and bend,
But things come out right in the end.
“I like to eat ice cubes,” she said with a pout,
And the perfect date went ka-boom.
I hadn’t planned upon going out—
Not to the emergency room!
Nurses, X-rays, exams, technicians—
Love thrives under the worst conditions.
The doc called us in and had this to say:
"It's not sharp, like a thumbtack or glass.
With a couple of pills, you should be okay.
Don't worry—this, too, shall pass."
And though I expected to take the blame,
That sweet girl married me just the same.
My love for you
Goes deep down, too—
Way deep down, and all the way through.
The path of love may twist and bend
But things come out right in the end.
You don't need to know exactly how,
But we managed to retrieve it.
That ring is on her finger now,
Never again to leave it.
Every time I hold her hand,
I'll be reminded of
That little gold-and-diamond band—
The symbol of our love.
My love for you
Goes deep down, too—
Way deep down, and all the way through.
The path of love may twist and bend,
But things come out right in the end.If you go with Weird Al you gotta go with this one
