  7. "Thank You" by Led Zeppelin (don’t worry, it’s a slow song)

    Some of the lyrics: If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you. If mountains crumbled to the sea, there would still be you and me…

  9. My fiance and I have chosen "Sunshine Lollipops and Rainbows" by Lesley Gore as our first dance because it probably has never been used as a first dance before and the lyrics are really cute! I also have heard that your first dance should be a short song because it can feel like forever on the dance floor if you choose a long one. We also preferred an upbeat song because it’s more us!

    Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows" by Lesley Gore

    Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
    Everything that’s wonderful is what I feel when we’re together,
    Brighter than a lucky penny,
    When you’re near the rain clouds disappear, dear,
    And I feel so fine just to know that you are mine.

    My life is sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
    That’s how this refrain goes, so come on, join in everybody!

    Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
    Everything that’s wonderful is sure to come your way
    When you’re in love to stay.

    Sunshine, lollipops and rainbows,
    Everything that’s wonderful is sure to come your way
    ‘Cause you’re in love, you’re in love,
    And love is here to stay!

  16. The Book of Love- Peter Gabriel

    Used in the movie ‘Shall We Dance’

    Lyrics: http://www.stlyrics.com/lyrics/shallwedance/bookoflove.htm
    Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nZGv8VTBVE

    It’s a slow, sweet song. It was also used in ‘The King and I’ and the series finale of ‘Scrubs’ (the best show ever).

    It will make you cry tears of joy. My fiance proposed to me with it. He got a band to play it and everything.

  17. Ours was from the song used during the credits of the Tom Hanks movie, "Splash!"

    Rita Coolidge – "Love Came For Me"

    You’ll pretty much have to rent the DVD for that one.

    Lyrics:

    Love Came For Me

    One fine day
    Love came for me
    When love was rare
    As love can be
    I saw stars
    Shining in clear blue skies
    We flow together
    Once and forever
    Love came for me

    One fine night
    Love let us see
    How far we’ll go
    How good we’ll be
    We saw a world
    No one ever saw before
    It was the world
    Love can start
    With the beat of a heart
    Love came for me

    I saw stars
    Shining in clear blue skies
    We flow together
    Once and forever
    Love came for me

    One fine night
    Love let us see
    How far we’ll go
    How good we’ll be
    We saw a world
    No one ever saw before
    It was the world
    Love can start
    With the beat of a heart
    Love came for me
    Love came for me
    Love came for me
