gogo Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 I've got a cousin getting married at the new year, and we're having a non-gift shower for her in a couple of weeks. I'd like to make her a mix CD as my non-gift to her, so I'm looking for suggestions for wedding or marriage-themed songs. And because she's a good sport, I'm going to toss in a few "don't do it!" songs, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ghost of Electricity Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 For the "Don't do it" category- Tom Waits "Better off without a wife" another one for the the same category more in the vein of the one you posted is the Carter Family "Single girl, married girl" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gogo Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share Posted December 6, 2010 I think this might be my problem here, I'm much more likely to know and like the single-girl songs! I may have to format this as two album sides: one with the snarky songs, and one happy/sappy side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a-me-with-a-you Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Hmm Bright Eyes' First Day of My Life's got appropriately sweet lyrics about two people starting a life together. I don't know much traditional wedding songs but I guess you weren't looking for those anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
