What Song?

19 years ago

Hi gang!

Well, we are down to just 6 weeks and 5 days to go!

Today we met with the DJ and the reception site. Tomorrow we meet the pastor for another premaritial counseling session. It's all coming together, and the time is flying right by!

The DJ was getting our ideas on songs. Of course I am brain dead right now due to stress and sleep deprivation, and could not think of ANYTHING!

I think I want to use Edwin Mccain "And I Could Not Ask For More" for our first dance as husband and wife.

I am at a total loss for what to use as the cake cutting song. Any suggestions? I don't think I have ever heard music played while the cake was being cut, maybe that's why I am stumped.

So, throw some song ideas at me.

I thought about Pat Benetar "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", the crowd will think we are going to smash the cake, even though I have already threatened death for any cake smeared into my face!

HELP! LOL

Penny

P.S. the main reception music will be songs from the 80's, as well as some oldies from the 50's and 60's, and a few modern songs.

Our DJ had a song called "Cut the Cake" by The Average White Band that we are thinking about using. Here are they lyrics:

Cut The Cake
give me a little piece
let me lick up the cream
Cut The Cake
well, just a little piece
baby you know what I mean
Cut The Cake
give me a little piece
a little lovin' on the side
Cut The Cake
I need a little piece
just to keep me satisfied
CHORUS:
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
Well it tastes so good don't pass it all around
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
You got to cut itdown!
Cut The Cake
just a little piece
of your sweet love
Cut The Cake
don't you know that I
can't get enough
Cut The Cake
want you to know that I
ain't a greedy man
Cut The Cake
don't you know that I'll
do the best I can
Chorus
Cut The Cake
give me a little piece
let me lick up the cream
Cut The Cake
well, just a little piece
baby you know what I mean
Cut The Cake
give me a little piece
a little lovin' on the side
Cut The Cake
I need a little piece
just to keep me satisfied
Chorus
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
Well it tastes so good don't pass it all around
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
Never knew you cooked the way you do
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
Tastes so good don't pass the recipe around
gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme that cake
You got to
cut itDOWN
cut itDOWN
cut itDOWN
Cut The Cake
please

I had thought about "Eat It" too, that would be soo funny! LOL
I have never heard "Cut The Cake", is it considered "raunchy"? I am trying to keep things clean. I told the DJ nothing that would embarass his own grandmother. If you know what I mean.
Sugar Sugar sounds good. Fits with our oldies theme too.
Any other suggestions?

What was your mother/son dance song at your son's wedding?
Q
Comments (33)
Son had a large wedding and reception but because it was in the afternoon, no dancing. But if we did have a song it would be Celine Dion's "Because You Loved Me." His small high school graduating class sang that to the parents then they gave the mom's a rose. Talk about crying! DIL knows what a close knit family we are and she loves how close I am to my son's. Now that she's a mother of a son she really understands the special bond between son and mother which is not like the old saying goes, "A son is a son until he takes a wife, a daugther is a daughter for the rest of her life." Heck, I still get onto my children! I'll always remember Barbara Bush speaking about Jr., "Just because he's the President doesn't mean he can put his feet on my coffee table!" lol

Ball of Confusion by the Temptations Eddie: People moving out, people moving in. Why, because of the color of their skin. Run, run, run but you sure can't hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Vote for me and I'll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on. Dennis: Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the...(preacher.) And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the...(teacher.) Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation. Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. Paul: The sale of pills are at an all time high. Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky. The cities ablaze in the summer time. And oh, the beat goes on. Dennis: Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul. Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon. Politicians say more taxes will solve everything. Melvin: And the band played on. So, round and around and around we go. Where the world's headed, nobody knows. [Instrumental] Oh, great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Just a ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey. Eddie: Fear in the air, tension everywhere. Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record's a gas. Dennis: And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation. Melvin: And the band played on. Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors, Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills, Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.' Melvin: And the band played on. [Instrumental] Great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya. Sayin'... ball of confusion. That's what the world is today, hey, hey. Let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya, let me hear ya. Sayin'... ball of confusion.

What Song describes you?

Wond'ring Aloud...Our song... Wond'ring aloud -- how we feel today. Last night sipped the sunset -- my hands in her hair. We are our own saviours as we start both our hearts beating life into each other. Wond'ring aloud -- will the years treat us well. As she floats in the kitchen, I'm tasting the smell of toast as the butter runs. Then she comes, spilling crumbs on the bed and I shake my head. And it's only the giving that makes you what you are. Jethro Tull- Wondr'ing Aloud, from the album Aqualung
