Inappropriate first dance wedding songs

#23
Cold Hard B**** - Jet

Crazy B***** - Buckcherry

Basically anything with B**** in it, I guess.

You Oughta Know - Alanis Morrissette

Love Stinks - J. Geils

I Don't Need You No More - J. Geils

First I Look at the Purse - J. Geils

Well, I guess darn near anything by J. Geils, now that I think about it.

La Grange - ZZ Top

Afternoon Delight actually was my first thought.

Gives You Hell - All American Rejects

Please Release Me - Englebert Humperdinck

Neil Diamond/Johnny Cash -" Solitary Man" (I prefer Johnnys version)

Melinda was mine 'til the time
That I found her
Holding Jim
And loving him
Then Sue came along, loved me strong
That's what I thought
Ya, me and Sue
But that died too

or

"Exodus - "Toxic Waltz"

Here's a new dance craze that's sweeping the nation
It's called the toxic waltz and it's causing devastation
You're jumping up and down like a psycho circus clown
Slamming with waltzers all the way around

or

Pantera - "This Love"

If ever words were spoken, painful and untrue
I said, "I loved but I lied"
In my life all I wanted
Was the keeping of someone like you
As it turns out, deeper within me
Love was twisted and pointed at you

or

Overkill - "F**k You"

Call us fearless, call us crazy
Say what you want, say we're lazy
Say we're just, the violent type
Time has come y'know we're not too bright

We don't care what you say
F**k you

We don't care what you say
F**k you

or

Death Angle - " I'm Bored"

Guilty of no crime
Not enough yet too much time
I'm burning in this hell
Plans to buy and dreams to sell

Sitting by myself
Living life and loving life
But something bothers me
What to do, I can't believe

I'm bored

or

Monster Magnet - "Your Lies Become You"

How did I get here without you
It's a miracle we're all sane

We're kinda like sucked in a vacuum

Of booking a flight on a doomed plane

Well you claimed you could read the future
And I'd say that you've nailed that down

Ummmmm, the song is simply titled, "Better Man" without any of that extra stuff. In addition, the song is about a good man, not about a woman that "can't find a better man". (than him)

Are you sure?

"She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man..."
and
"She loved him, yeah... she don't want to leave this way
She feeds him, yeah... that's why she'll be back again"

Sounds to me like this would be pretty bad as a first dance.

What others can you think of that would be inappropriate?

Are you on the look out for your first dance song? You might want to avoid all these tunes which perhaps don’t send quite the right message for married life.

1. Invalid Link Removed
We actually heard this being discussed by a bride and groom. Apparently the groom wanted something upbeat to dance to. True, it does have a pretty funky beat, but the questionable lyrics and not to mention that video make this a complete no-no.

2. Invalid Link Removed
Even if you put this on in a funny-aren’t-we-ironic way, this song is hard to dance to.

3. Gold digger – Kanye West ft. Jamie Foxx
A you a money-grabbing woman who’s only marrying your husband for dollar? No? Then this is not the first dance song for you!

4. Invalid Link Removed
We’ve heard this played at weddings quite a few times because it’s so pretty. However, the lyrics are actually all about a man who’s only being nice to get some lovin’. Nice.

5. Heaven knows I’m miserable now – The Smiths
The title alone should be enough to put you off.

6. It’s the end of the world as we know it – REM
Not even a little bit funny and guaranteed to create a flat, miserable mood for the rest of the evening.

7. Invalid Link Removed or Dolly
The title for this song is better, but the song is about leaving someone. Plus what on earth do you do when that big long note is playing?

8. Invalid Link Removed
A beautiful song about loneliness and a one-night stand. Not really what you want for the happiest day of your life.

9. Invalid Link Removed
Made legendary by the film The Wedding Singer, this film is the ultimate anti-love anthem.

10. D-I-V-O-R-C-E – Tammy Wynette
Just no.

Easy Lover. Phil Collins and Phillip Bailey. What a jam. Nathan East composed the music, too.
