Is the song, "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion good for a wedding or a funeral?

She uses a lot of past tense in the song, it makes it sound like a funeral-type song...but on wedding song websites it's listed everywhere. What gives?

Is the song, "Because You Loved Me" by Celine Dion good for a wedding or a funeral?
It could theoretically be used for either....no matter what it'll be cheesy.





The song is about how this guys love changed her for the better, that's why there is so much past tense.
Reply:I like that song, but some of the older people will remember it from the movie" Up Close %26amp; Personal "


It was played at the end of the movie, when Michele Pfeiffer saw Robert Redfords boots laying on the ground, and she knew he was dead.


To this day when I hear that song., that's what it reminds me of, and that movie is probably more than 10 years old.
Reply:Celine Dion, really?
Reply:Well, regardless of the lyrics, it's still Celine Dion and that's. just. wrong.
Reply:It could go either way, but it's a really sappy one. Kind of a downer for a wedding, if you ask me. And too romantic for a funeral, in an odd way. Hmm.
Reply:I think that it could go for either. It's also going to really depend on the person you're playing it for, though. I think it's important to take that into account.
Reply:I'm using Christina Agulira " I turn to you"


yes you can borrow it
Reply:Either.


But because of the past tense, it should not be used for weddings. I've seen people use it at graduations a lot.


Good luck.
Reply:I used it as a father-daughter dance at my wedding. There were a lot of lines in that song that could be used for a father loving his daughter.
Reply:I think it's great for both. My mom says when she remarries, she wants that to be her father/daughter song.
Reply:Whatever floats yer boat -- but I know that my wife is playing it at someone's wedding this summer. Hmmmmm . . .
Reply:funeral.
Reply:dont like the song


What do you think of "The Old Rugged Cross" as a song to play during our wedding ceremony?

My fiance is insisting on it....but I just don't think it's a good wedding song. Don't get me wrong, I like the song. Just not for a wedding......what do you think?

What do you think of "The Old Rugged Cross" as a song to play during our wedding ceremony?
Is that his favorite Hymn? Put it in if it is, you dont have to have the words sung, you can just have the music played, but if its his favorite I think you should put it in. You can have them play it while people are being seated. People get weird about their favorite Hymns, they like to have them at certain times to give them a comforting feeling. Mine is "How Great Thou Art" and when I am upset or nervous or excited I sing it to myself to calm down. Its one thing and its only a song, I would let him have this one request.
Reply:Don't they play that at funerals? If this is a must maybe you can get him to agree to just an instramental?

Here is a song called the Wedding Song.


http://songsofpraise.org/song.php?songid...
Reply:I know the song, its a good song i agree. But its very depressing as its talking about the death of the christian savior. Its good that hes thinking about that, but you might want to point out its depressing side. Where as a wedding is supposed to be happy and joyous.





Try to convince him that the music should be agreed on for a happier time, than persay you went with the system of "i pick one, then you pick one" because then your not working together from the start and could possibly cause problems in the long run.
Reply:I agree with you, it is not meant to be a wedding song.





It is the bride who usually decides on these things so if you don't like the song, you should voice your opinion and suggest a few of your favourites.





Here are some of my favourites:


I'll love you forever and ever Amen. Randy Travis


I will always love you, Dolly Parton also Whitney Houston did it.


Power of Love Celine Dione





Well you are right when you say it is a nice song "The Old Rugged Cross" but really not wedding day material.





Congratulations on your engagement and God bless your union. Peace
Reply:More appropriate for a funeral - perhaps he is joking?
Reply:I have to agree with you that this is NOT a wedding song. But it is also your fiance's wedding, too.


If he won't agree to having it played during the prelude, why doesn't he, the officiant %26amp; groomsmen process in to it? That way he gets his song, you don't have to hear it %26amp; if any question is raised why you chose that song, you can refer people to him. :)
Reply:I guess you are his rugged cross to bear
Reply:Well why not it is a funeral song!!!! It was also my mothers favorite sone. We sang it at her funeral. I always want to cry when I hear the song.

Does anyone know this wedding song?

I'm really not sure if it's a "wedding song" but it is like a symphony or instrumental they played it on a wedding commercial that's why i relate it to that. and they played it in the movie "Dude, where's my car?" HELP !!!

Does anyone know this wedding song?
Not cannon, but canon. The song is "Canon in D" by Johann Pachelbel. It's a fantastic piece of music and is a common choice for wedding marches.
Reply:i thinks it canon in D
Reply:I didn't see the advertisement...but try "Cannon in D"
Reply:is it pachelbel's canon, or the bridal march 'lohengrin' ?


Is somewhere over the rainbow a good wedding song to walk down the aisle???

Its by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's...its hawaiian music..its got the same lyrics as the one in wizard of oz but a different tune! Im getting married outside underneath a big pretty willow tree and I was wondering if that song would be a good song to go down the aisle with! I dont like the traditional wedding march song..Im looking for something different...please help!

Is somewhere over the rainbow a good wedding song to walk down the aisle???
That song is very beautiful and it would be perfect for your wedding entrance. If you do want some more options though, try http://www.wedding-music-help.com/weddin... or even http://www.wedding-music-help.com/beachw... since it is an outside wedding.
Reply:My now sister-in-law walked down the aisle to a version of that song. (I honestly don't know who sang it - it sounded kind of reggae to me.) No one thought it was at all inappropriate. It's only 1 small part of your wedding, so if it makes you happy, then go for it - especially with the non-traditional wedding location you described.
Reply:Lately it seems to be really popular. I'm not sure the Wizard of Oz association is as strong as another answerer suggested.





I personally wouldn't, because it's so popular, probably because of that one Drew Barrymore film. But otherwise I think it's a perfectly fine song.





good luck.
Reply:That version of the song is AMAZING! It is one of the most truly beautiful songs I've ever heard. It is a blend of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "It's a Wonderful World".





And still, I wouldn't use it to come into the church. It would be a better first dance song.
Reply:It's your wedding. If that's your choice then go with it. However, there are sooo many songs to chose from. I personally don't see that as a very romantic song. I think your guests would be thinking about the movie, the characters, the storyline,etc..... instead of the wedding.
Reply:This is my all time favourite song, and I would totally cry if someone had this as they walk down the aisle!!





It suits your wedding perfectly, since its an outdoor event ,and the song is cherry and hopeful and 100% dreamy.
Reply:Find something more appropriate. That is a song that will have people laughing because they will be thinking of the fantasy of the movie and making jokes about munchkins popping out from everywhere. Or monkeys flying overhead. Just not a good one. Sorry!
Reply:I think that would be a fantastic song. The tune makes all the difference. I love Iz! If you don't know this version, listen first before you answer.
Reply:I think that's a beautiful song! I love that version. It was used in Finding Forester...the oldish movie. I'd use it to go out on though (the recessional) Its a beautiful way to end.
Reply:I really depends how it sounds....if its more like the original version it might be a little cheesy. You might want to find a song that is less traditional but not so known
Reply:I love that song!!!!! I think it would be lovely for you to walk down the aisle to!





I'm actually using that song for my father/daughter dance!
Reply:Girl, it's your day. Don't worry about what other people think. If that's what you want, go for it. I really like it by the way.
Reply:AHHH I love that song....I would like it played at my wedding.....maybe at the reception for me








go for it
Reply:Sure - it's a classic song and god for outside! For other ideas, look here - http://www.ourweddingsongs.com/
Reply:I LOVE that version! you should do it! it would be so amazing.... its a wonderful song....
Reply:i guess i'm the odd man out. i'd pick something else.
Reply:Wow, Love it!
Reply:that is sooo adorable!!! i found a wizard of oz garter online if your interested in the sight? you can e mail me.


What is the best song to sing on a wedding?

A close friend of mine will be getting married soon, my problem is that, I can't select the best song to sing for her wedding so, please help me..

What is the best song to sing on a wedding?
this one
Reply:I can suggest one not to sing or play at a wedding, which would be "White Wedding" which I hear alot at weddings, it is about drug addiction, not a real wedding. Make sure whatever you choose, what it is really about....some songs are tricky! I would ask them if they have a favourite song, alot of couples do.............or what kind of song they would prefer............country,rock etc and type......romantic, fun, modern or old fashioned etc. That would help somewhat. I think it is really sort of a personal thing and really should be chosen by the couple. My wedding song was "love is all around" by Wet Wet Wet, which was from a movie we saw together when we first met.............most weddings I've been to they said the couple chose the song!
Reply:you could always hire Jade Bedford. She's an upcoming artist and her songs are all really good. If you can't hire her you could always sing one of her songs, forever, eternal or magic.
Reply:ask what their song is. then see if you sing it. or Swear It Again by Westlife. i danced to this at my wedding.
Reply:This is The song I think...


JUST YOU AND I


awesome slow song
Reply:depends on her vocal ability. but dangerously in love, by beonce is a good one. so is On This Day, and I Do.

How should a songwriter market a funny wedding song about the dad spending so much money?

The song "Yes Honey Wedding Blues" is GREAT to give to fathers of brides where the dad's role is just to keep quite and give out money! You can hear a 2 minute song clip at http://cdbaby.com/cd/pg43. How should I market this?

Make a video or Flash animation. You can post it on you tube and get great buzz! Or just post it on your own site, and make money off ads.

Where can I find a good song to dance to for a wedding??

I need a song to dance to at a wedding. I'm not talking ballroom style. We're going more for the interpretive classical style of dancing. Something that starts out nice and soft. And then goes techno, hiphop or pop all of a sudden. It can be with or without lyrics.





Thanks ahead of time.

0, my love is like a melody,


that's sweetly play'd in tune.





As fair thou art, my bonnie lass,


so deep in love am I,


And I will love thee still, my dear,


till a' the seas gang dry.





Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,


and the rocks melt wi' the sun!

And I will come again, my love.


Tho it were ten thousand mile!








Marie's Wedding





Chorus:


Step we gaily on we go,


Heel and heel


And toe for toe,


Arm and arm


And row and row,


All for Marie's wedding.





Over hillways, up and down,


Myrtle green and bracken brown,


Past the sheilings through the town


All for the sake of Marie.





Chorus





Red her cheeks as Rowan's are,


Bright her eyes as any star.


Fairest of them all by far,


Is our darlin' Marie.





Chorus





Plenty herring, plenty meal,


Plenty peat to fill her kreel.


Plenty bonnie bairns as well,


That's the toast for Marie.

LOVE AND MARRIAGE





Love and marriage, love and marriage


They go together like a horse and carriage


This I tell you brother


You can't have one without the other





Love and marriage, love and marriage

Ask the local gentry


And they will say it's elementary





Try, try, try to separate them


It's an illusion


Try, try, try, and you will only come


To this conclusion

Go together like a horse and carriage

You can't have one


You can't have none


You can't have one without the other

Try, try, try, and you will only come

The go together like a horse and carriage

I see them bloom for me and you


And I think to myself what a wonderful world.





I see skies of blue and clouds of white


The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night


And I think to myself what a wonderful world.





The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky


Are also on the faces of people going by


I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do


They're really saying I love you.





I hear babies crying, I watch them grow


They'll learn much more than I'll never know


And I think to myself what a wonderful world


Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

It's not my fav song by any means but my friends and I get together and play guitar and sing periodically and it keeps coming into the rotation
Reply:Well, if you want love songs, you could go with something by Copeland like Take Care or Brightest.





Momentum by The Hush Sound is kind of a love song in a very strange way. Its also pretty easy to play on guitar.

Is this a good song for a first wedding song?

I was thinking when me and my man had our wedding that I was going to use the song from dirty dancing the song that goes " I had the time of my life and I owe it all to you." Is that agood song or can you guys give me some tips. I tought of it because of our past.

I think if its sentimental to you...you should use it. If the people know about your past with him...the will most likely shed a tear...I think its sweet!!!or

Reply:in my experience most men hate Dirty Dancing. so your guy may not go with it.





I would suggest picking a classic song vs. something by the pussycat dolls. you want a song you can play for your grandkids one day or something.
Reply:That song totally reminds me of the movie "Dirty Dancing" and I'm not sure if that's the mood you want to set at your wedding.





The most important thing, though, is to select a song that is special to you and your fiance and a song that you won't be embarrased playing for your grandkids one day.





Congrats!!
Reply:It's not a bad choice but I don't know about it for the 1st song. It might be a nice song to end the night. It seems more appropriate for a last dance song. (Better than Last dance by Donna Summer)

Maybe try these....





Right Here Waiting – Richard Marx


Suddenly – Billy Ocean


Unforgettable – Nat and Natalie Cole


Valentine – Martina McBride and Jim Brickman


You and I – Stevie Wonder





I would just try and pick something that is not so over done...

Lyrics to Grow old with you


I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad


Carry you around when your arthritis is bad


All i wanna do is grow old with you





I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches


Build you a fire if the furnace breaks


Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you





I'll miss you


I'll kiss you


Give you my coat when you are cold





I'll need you


I'll feed you


Even let ya hold the remote control





So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink


Put you to bed if you've had too much to drink


I could be the man who grows old with you


I wanna grow old with you

You are the sunshine of my life

Though I've loved you for a million years


And if I though our love was ending


I'd found myself drowning in my own tears


Wo wo.





You are the sunshine of my life, yeah


That's why I'll always stay around


Um um um yeah, yeah


You are the apple of my eye


Forever you'll stay in my heart.





You must have known that I was lonely


Because you came to my rescue ooh ooh


And I know that this must be heaven


How could so much love be inside of you

All I know is that I fell in love with you


And if all my dreams come true


I'll be spending time with you





Every day's a new day in love with you


With each day comes a new way of loving you


Every time I kiss your lips my mind starts to wander


And if all my dreams come true


I'll be spending time with you





Oh, I love you more today than yesterday


But not as much as tomorrow


I love you more today than yesterday


But, darling, not as much as tomorrow





Tomorrow's date means springtime's just a day away


Cupid, we don't need ya now, be on your way


I thank the lord for love like ours that grows ever stronger


And I always will be true I know you feel the same way too.





Oh, I love you more today than yesterday


But not as much as tomorrow


I love you more today than yesterday


But only half as much as tomorrow





Every day's a new day, every time I love ya


Every way's a new way, every time I love ya


Every day's a new day, oh, how I love ya

Mat Kearney - All I Need


Here it comes it's all blowing in tonight


I woke up this morning to a blood red sky


THey're burning on the bridge turning off the lights


We're on the run I can see it in your eyes


If nothing is safe then I don't understand


You call me your boy but I'm trying to be the man


ONe more day and it's all slipping with the sand


You touch my lips and brab the back of my hand


The back of my hand





[ chorus ]


Guess we both know we're in over our heads


We got nowhere to go and no home that's left


The water is rising on a river turning red


It all might be ok or we might be dead


If everything we've got is slipping away


[ Lyrics found at www.mp3lyrics.org/ghf ]


I meant what I said when I said until my dying day


I'm holding on to you, holding on to me


Myabe it's all gone black but you're all I see


You're all I see





The walls are shaking, I hear them sound the alarm


Glass is breaking so don't let go of my arm


Grab your bags and a picture of where we met


All that we'll leave behind and all that's left


If everything we've got is blowing away


We've got a rock and a rock till our dying day


I'm holding on to you, holding on to me


Maybe it's all we got but it's all I need


You're all I need





[ chorus ]





A pool is running for miles on the concrete ground


We're eight feet deep and the rain is still coming down


The TV's playing it all out of town


We're grabbing at the fray for something that won't drown

"Nine Million Bicycles"





There are nine million bicycles in Beijing


That's a fact,


It's a thing we can't deny


Like the fact that I will love you till I die.





We are twelve billion light years from the edge,


That's a guess,


No-one can ever say it's true


But I know that I will always be with you.





I'm warmed by the fire of your love everyday


So don't call me a liar,


Just believe everything that I say





There are six BILLION people in the world


More or less


and it makes me feel quite small


But you're the one I love the most of all





[INTERLUDE]


We're high on the wire


With the world in our sight


And I'll never tire,


Of the love that you give me every night





There are nine million bicycles in Beijing


That's a Fact,


it's a thing we can't deny


Like the fact that I will love you till I die





And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing


And you know that I will love you till I die!

Reply:I hope this link works. If not, go to Amazon and type in "String Quartet Guns N' Roses" and you'll get to it.


I wanted something rock (my fave band is Gn'R) but that sounds OK for a church, should I decide to wed in a church.


They do tributes to other bands, but you'll have to search for them.





I'm walking down to Sweet Child O' Mine and we're leaving to Welcome To The Jungle - LOL.

Reply:There are quite a few options and you don't have to sell out to the traditional or cheesy songs. If you are a bit worried about the effect such a song might have on your grandmother, then try some of the instrumental versions of songs like Nothing Else Matters by Metalica. For some ideas try: http://www.wedding-music-help.com/weddin...
Reply:I was in a wedding where the Bride choose 311's "love Song" it was great. The preacher didn't like it so much, but it was great.

Reply:i had "every thing i do" . by Brian Adam's . it was so sweet. we also had it at our reception. but the song that was played while was walking down the aisle was "butterfly kisses"
Reply:This might be totally random and off the wall but there is a French singer named Francis Cabrel who is hands down the most romantic singer in the world. Search for him on youtube and the songs Je t'aimais, je t'aime et je t'aimerais (which means I loved you, I love you, I will love you) and Samedi Soir Sur la Terre. Even if you can't understand them they sound beautiful.





Also another one that's a bit off the wall - my friends had "Magic" by Ben Folds Five and it sounded amazing.
Reply:From the Movie Armergedon with Bruce Willis. its on the tip of my tongue....ok i forgot. i guess its a start. it the song that was played at my brothers wedding
Reply:I will be here by Stephen Curtis Chapman
Reply:ALWAYS, by singer Connie Francis.
Reply:Hi, what ever the song you pick is, here is a great idea, during the first dance have the bridal party surround the bride and groom in a circle, each with a small bottle of bubbles and a bubble wand (you can get them at any party store) and during the first dance have them be a human bubble machine, comes out great on video. good luck!

Wedding song?

Ok so my fiance and I are getting married next month and we still haven't found a perfect wedding song. Anyone got suggestions?





Thanks :)

Wedding song?
We are using "We Are Man And Wife" by Michelle Featherstone.
Reply:I can tell you what mine are, maybe that will help!


Our first dance song is You and me by Lifehouse


Our last dance song is I'll Be by Edwin McCain (wanted both since I couldn't decide and the second one was the first song we ever danced to)


But I love Amazed by Lonestar and Power of Love my Air Supply (yes the original version)


Good luck and congrats
Reply:Nobody really agrees with my taste of music, but if you're asking, you must not want something "traditional."





I've had "We've Only Just Begun" by the Carpenters picked out since I was 14. Luckily, my FH likes the song. It is perfectly appropriate.





We've only just begun


To live


White lace and promises


A kiss for luck and we're on our way


Before the rising sun


We fly


So many roads to choose


We start out walking and learn to run


And yes we've only just begun


Sharing horizons that are new to us


Watching the signs along the way


Talking it over just the two of us


Working together day to day


Together


And when the evening comes


We smile


So much of life ahead


We'll find a place where there's room to grow


And yes we just begun


To live


We only just begun


To live
Reply:Marry Me


Amanda Marshall





I wanna laugh


Until I cry


Wake up with you each day 'til the day I die


Let's go to New Orleans


And watch the parade


Take funny pictures, eat jumbalaya, and drink lemonade


And when the day is finally over


And we stumble home


Before we sleep





Baby marry me


I wanna drive


Until we get lost


Lie in a field staring up at the sky


While you point out the southern cross


Somehow I know


Without asking why


That you love me more in a minute


Than anyone could in a lifetime


Dancing in the parking lot


While the band plays inside


Sweet me off my feet





Baby, marry me


We don't need no preacher man


readin' from a good book


And I don't want no fancy dress


Ain't no ceremony


For the vows that I took


From the moment I met you


I have been blessed


So let's make a toast


And drink up the wine


Here's to you lying here next to me


Until the end of time


Wherever you are


I wanna be


And anything that means anything to ya


Means everything to me


Sneakin' out the back door


While they're throwing the rice


And they'll talk for weeks


But we're all we need


So baby, if your free





Marry me


Baby, marry me


marry me

I would love people to help me out on picking mine and my fiance wedding song! We have been through so many and have decided to pick one out each for the other. If you guys could give me some ideas of songs that would be awsome. I was thinking of "I'll Stand By You" by The Pretenders? But i thought it might be a little depressing?

Reply:How about "Long Trip Alone" by Dirks Bentley...


I love the lyrics.








It's a long trip alone over sand and stone


That lie along the road that we all must travel down





So maybe you could walk with me a while


And maybe I could rest beneath your smile


Everybody stumbles sometimes and needs a hand to hold


'Cause it's a long trip alone





It's a short piece of time but just enough to find


A little peace of mind under the sun somewhere





So maybe you could walk with me a while


And maybe I could rest beneath your smile


You know we can't afford to let one moment pass us by


'Cause it's a short piece of time





And I don't know where I'd be without you here


'Cause I'm not really me without you there





Yea Yeah


Hallelujah hallelujah oh





So maybe you could walk with me a while


Maybe I could rest beneath your smile


Everybody stumbles sometimes and needs a hand to hold





So maybe you could walk with me a while


Maybe I could rest beneath your smile


Maybe I could feel right beside you 'til I'm home


'Cause it's a long trip alone

I like the song below, I don't know if you've heard of Ben Folds, He's kinda Alternative, but this is a beautiful piano piece that woul be great to slow dance to. And it wouldn't be one that's heard at every wedding! We're considering it.





You've gotta hear it to appreciate it though!





The luckiest. Ben Folds





I dont get many things right the first time


In fact, I am told that a lot


Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls


Brought me here





And where was I before the day


That I first saw your lovely face?


Now I see it everyday


And I know





That I am


I am


I am


The luckiest





What if Id been born fifty years before you


In a house on a street where you lived?


Maybe Id be outside as you passed on your bike


Would I know?





And in a white sea of eyes


I see one pair that I recognize


And I know





That I am


I am


I am


The luckiest





I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you





Next door theres an old man who lived to his nineties


And one day passed away in his sleep


And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days


And passed away





Im sorry, I know thats a strange way to tell you that I know we belong


That I know





That I am


I am


I am


The luckiest

The Greatest Love Affair





We've seen the broken hearted


When love started


And then fade away


Love ran out of energy


Somewhere along the way





Oh but lady, no lessons to be learned for us


We made it


The mountains we have climbed are far behind





It's been a life long, a love song


With every lyric saying that we're still number one


And now composed


Our love has grown


And we have turned the prayer into the


Greatest love affair of them all





And now we both should cherish


The treasure at the rainbow's end


The game is finally over


I knew that we would win





Oh and lady, the lesson we have learned


Have helped us made it


The mountains we have climbed are far behind





It's been a life long, a love song


With every lyric saying that we're still number one


And now composed


Our love has grown


And we have turned the prayer into the


Greatest love affair of them all





From now on in it will be easy


So easy for you and I


We've found the purpose and the reason


The need is on inside





It's been a life long, a love song


With every lyric saying that we're still number one


And now composed


Our love has grown


And we have turned the prayer into the


Greatest love affair of them all...

Reply:Thank You by zepplin isn't so traditional as well as In My Life by the beatles. It just depends on what kind of music you like and what you think partains to you as a couple. Look up lyrics and then choose a song from a genre that you like. I do like the pretenders you don't hear them as often.Good Luck

Another suggestion is These Arms of Mine by Otis Redding.
