Topic: WRONG WEDDING SONGS TO OPEN THE DANCE

This is a nice topic.
I am curious if they use those songs in the English speaking countries like Great Brittain & the USA.
Here in Europe, most of the people learn English, but a lot of them just listen to the melody, more than the lyrics.
So a list, HOPING YOU ADD MORE:
- Please Release Me  by Englebert Humperdinck
- Baby, I'm gonna leave you by Led Zeppelin
- I will Always Love You by Dolly Parton/Whitney Houston
- Tears In Heaven by Eric Clapton
- Don't Forget To Remember Me by the Bee Gees

( also phil, sorry to be pernickity but you mentioned great britain as a country, it is not a country mate, it consists of 3 and a bit countries, a lot of people dont like it getting G.B getting called a country, even the P.M refers it as a country sometimes)

"Who Are You?"  The Who
"Hit The Road Jack"
"Worst Day Ever"  Simple Plan
"Shut Up"  Simple Plan
And my all time favourite......"Mary In The Morning"  by Elvis........especially when the brides name is Julie....

The Irish gave the bagpipes to the Scots as a joke, but the Scots haven't got the joke yet.

engleburt humperdink wasn't the original singer of please release me.... im pretty sure it was jim reeves, either him or eddy arnold.
Engleburt humperdink was a country (well sort of) singer who never wrote anything for himself but (much like a wedding singer lol) made his living singing other people's songs..... not that im knocking it hey if you've got a good voice and cant write you know, just thought you might find that interesting. You learn something new everyday lol
