Songs about wedding rings?

[Febs]

With This Ring by the Platters

Not a song about a ring, but perhaps appropriate for the situation: Wedding Bell Blues by Laura Nyro/the Fifth Dimension

 

[AnchorHoy]

Midnight Confession - The Grass Roots
The Worst That Could Happen - Brooklyn Bridge
This Diamond Ring - Gary Lewis and The Playboys

It's a bit of a stretch, but you might include Diary by Bread in the list

"Band of Gold" from the '70s (what's that about?)

Impotence on his wedding night

I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hoping soon
That you'll walk back through that door
And love me like you tried before

Y'know.......

Looking over that horrifyingly lame collection of songs 'celebrating' the Traditional Values of the 60's and 70's just reminded me why I started playing LOUD Rock & Roll

Ring, ring, telephone ring...

That lyric line is from a hit song in 1971 called Rings by Cymarron

Throw in some Tolkien metal about the One Ring just for the humor value. No, I can't actually name any, but I'm sure plenty of it exists.

This certainly isn't metal, but if you want to go the Lord of the Rings route, check out this classic, starting at 0:17

"This is For the Lover in You By Shalamar." Often called "This Ring." Great 80's R&B song.

Also the International Players Anthem by UGK and Outkast. Come to think of it, I think only the first verse is about getting married. Ah screw it, just listen to the song, anyway. It's a great song

She wants something with a ring to it (like a long white gown)

This Diamond Ring - Gary Lewis and The Playboys

...I was thinking about that one.
Wiki sez the sessioneers included Hal Blaine, Carol Kaye, & Leon Russell.

Half of My Heart - John Mayer w/ Taylor Swift

At 3:20: "Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding to a bride with a paper ring"
