Into My Arms by Nick Cave

I don't believe in an interventionist God
But I know, darling, that you do
But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Not to touch a hair on your head
To leave you as you are
And if He felt He had to direct you
Then direct you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

And I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did I would summon them together
And ask them to watch over you
To each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
And guide you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

And I believe in Love
And I know that you do too
And I believe in some kind of path
That we can walk down, me and you
So keep your candlew burning
And make her journey bright and pure
That she will keep returning
Always and evermore

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

How about 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' by Sevie Wonder? Or 'Worms'?

[Eric V]

Curse of Love
Ghost of a Smile

[pogues24]

A Pair of Brown Eyes, most definitely

Iain

[Mick Molloy]

SAYONARA

[The Duke of Ingmar]

Gotta be Broad Majestic Shannon or A Rainy Night In Soho (though I might give some consideration to Misty Morning/Albert Bridge).

And "In and out" for the wedding night ...

[Beisty]

A medley comprising:

Brown Girl in the Ring/Okey Cokey/The Birdy Song

[Pyro]

Duke: Lol, even at slightest touch of imagining it I fell on the floor laughing

Nice idea though - I remember there was a thread about song played on funeral. Seems we´re getting optimistic.

What about Tombstones? Or, on more serious note - Night train to Lorca.

[Zuzana]

Blood Wedding by Oysterband... for the party.

Do you take this woman? I said yes I do
I love her like crazy & I think she loves me too
But we'll do without the family
if it’s all the same to you
happy ever after
Your mother is a flake
my father is a shite
Your sister said you married me in white
just for spite
Well a party's not a party till it end's up in a fight
Happy ever after

And there was my lot and your lot
and us two in between
please God
This is the last time I get married
please God
This is the last time I get married

My brother's never short
of a substance to abuse
Rum & glue & Thunderbird & wizz & special brew
Any minute now he'll show us all of his tattoos
happy ever after
Nephews are obnoxious, nieces are too tall
A dozen drunken uncles
are pissing up the wall
Grandad is grinning
but there's no one home at all
happy ever after

And there was my lot and your lot
and us two in between
please God
This is the last time I get married
please God
This is the last time I get married

For richer, for poorer
for better or for worse
Now we are married, a blessing or a curse
Kiss me & don't forget
What you see is what you get

And the best man is the worst man
the best man is a beast
Underneath the table
with the sister of the priest
The was he's going at it
she is probably deceased
happy ever after
Granny's on the brandy, getting bleary-eyed
Guys I went to school with
want to see me outside
Someone's pulled the bridesmaid.
Has anyone seen the bride?
Happy ever after

And there was my lot and your lot
and us two in between
please God
This is the last time I get married
please God
This is the last time I get married

[Mick Molloy]

Dead Kennedys - Too Drunk To Fuck

Speak for yourself

[Johan From Sweden]

You´r the one - Shane Macgowan and Marie Brennan. GREAT SONG

Not a Pogues song but i think it would sound good on a wedding.

Cheers
