    Funny you should mention "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights", Maria, because I always laugh because it was at played at nearly every wedding reception I went to throughout the '90's and danced and sung along with with great gusto!

    Thought of some more...
     
    Depeche Mode's "Master and Servant" would only be appropriate at the wedding of a very particular type of couple.  LOL.
     
    James - "Laid"..not appropriate and would be bad to play in front of any in-laws LOL. 
     
    Alanis Morisette - "You Oughta Know"
     
    Kate

    Don't Touch Me There -- The Tubes
    Good-Bye Earl -- Dixie Chicks
    Dynamohum -- Frank Zappa
    The Banks of the Ohio -- Jonny Cash (It's about killing the woman he loves & throwing her in the river)
     
    I know there are more, I just can't think of them.

    Kate-

    I KID YOU NOT about this story... My 20 year old step son decided when he was sad and going away to boost camp to propose to a woman he worked with that he had been on 2 dates with... so after boot camp his family got the SURPRISE of their life... none of us had even MET this girl yet alone knew her name or ANYTHING about her (and NO ...she was NOT pregnant![;)]).

    SO one of Dh's friends was helping us last minute get songs together for the wedding and he put the below song on the CD... On the way to the place they were getting married DH and I  were listening  to the CD and we heard the song... freaked out, went home and burned a   NEW CD without this one on it!  What a horrible thing that would have been if we hadn't caught it... NOT the supportive and loving message we wanted to send to his NOW ex- wife [;)]

    JIMMY SOUL- IF YOU WANNA BE HAPPY





    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    A pretty woman makes her husband look small
    And very often causes his downfall
    As soon as he married her and then she starts
    To do the things that will break his heart

    But if you make an ugly woman your wife
    A-you'll be happy for the rest of your life
    An ug-a-ly woman cooks meals on time
    And she'll always give you peace of mind

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    [Sax solo]

    Don't let your friends say you have no taste
    Go ahead and marry anyway
    Though her face is ugly, her eyes don't match
    Take it from me, she's a better catch

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    [Spoken:]
    Say man!
    Hey baby!
    I saw your wife the other day!
    Yeah?
    Yeah, an' she's ug-leeee!
    Yeah, she's ugly, but she sure can cook, baby!
    Yeah, alright!

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life
    Never make a pretty woman your wife
    So for my personal point of view
    Get an ugly girl to marry you

    OMG Shelly, that is unreal! 

    Good thing you caught that in time!  I understand people playing jokes (a la Maria's bridal party singing "Another one bites the dust")  but it is a fine line to walk between a joke and being offensive - you really need to know your audience well.  I bet you're glad you decided to listen to the CD in the car!

    Maria - I'm glad you like our choice of song.  It fits us, and the style of wedding - elegant (I hope!) but not overly fussy.  [:)]

    Traditionalists, avert your eyes.
     
    Personally, I always thought Mendelssohn's Wedding March was inappropriate.  Unless you really *are* getting married to an ass named Bottom. 
    • Gold Top Dog
    So, I'm an oldies freak:
     
    "Send in the Clowns" (Joni Mitchell -- my best friend has always said if she ever gets married she's having that one played as she goes down the aisle)
     
    "Every Step You Take" Police (I heard Sting say once he's amazed how many couples say that's 'their song' and he said "WHY?  It's about a stalker!!")
     
    "Running Bear Loved Little White Dove" Johnny Preston (they both die in the end)
     
    "Last Kiss" J. Frank Wilson & the Cavaliers (car wreck and she dies)
     
    ANYTHING by Lesley Gore (but if you take them all together it's like a woman's journey to self-discovery and self-respect *grin*)
     
    "Fancy" by Dusty Springfield (Fancy's mother tells her "Just be nice to the gentlemen, Fancy, and they'll be nice to you" as she teaches her to be a hooker -- and they say today's songs lack moral fiber!!)
     
    'These Boots are Made For Walkin" Nancy Sinatra (wearing comfy shoes to be married in? Nope *grin*)
     
    ahhh, so many songs, so little time

    Let's not forget good old Ray Charles and

    HIT THE ROAD, JACK!

    Here's another one:
    "Independence Day" - Martina McBride.
