We decided to have "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge for our just married/walking down the aisle song (not having a reception with disco so no first dance). We had been friends a long time and were sitting chilling watching this film and not long afterwards we became more than friends. I love the songs and considering he has been putting up with my panic attacks etc it really hs been a case of come what may so far.

adding to this we are going to have this version as our first dance - beautiful voice - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsL1eKJv7Qo

Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day

Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see

But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say

When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy

She's so beautiful

we heard it last night and he said we are dancing to that. haha

its pretty much true to every bloke/woman x

Come What May Song Lyrics from Moulin Rouge

Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day i'm loving you more than this
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you until the end of time

Chorus:
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you until my dying day

Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until the end of time

Chorus

Oh, come what may, come what may
I will love you, I will love you
Suddenly the world seems such a perfect place

Chorus

sniffle :) sigh

Oh so long for this night I prayed
That a star would guide you my way
To share with me this special day
Where a ribbon's in the sky for our love

If allowed may I touch your hand
And if pleased may I once again
So that you too will understand
There's a ribbon in the sky for our love

Do...Do...
Do Do Do Do Do...
HMM HMM...

This is not a coincidence
And far more than a lucky chance
But what is that was always meant
Is our ribbon in the sky for our love, love

We can't lose with God on our side
We'll find strength in each tear we cry
From now on it will be you and I
And our ribbon in the sky
Ribbon in the sky
A ribbon in the sky for our love

Do...Do...
Do Do Do Do Do...
HMM HMM...

[Musical Break]

There's a ribbon in the sky for our love

We're having Paul McCartney and Calico Skies:

It was written that I would love you
From the moment I opened my eyes
And the morning when I first saw you
Gave me life under calico skies
I will hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
Always looking for ways to love you
Never failing to fight at your side
While the angels of love protect us
From the innermost secrets we hide
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
Long live all us crazy soldiers who were born under calico skies
May we never be called to handle
All the weapons of war we despice
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my life
I'll hold you for as long as you like
I'll hold you for the rest of my...
For the rest of my life

We're both big music fans and love the Beatles and especially McCartney's solo stuff, so it was a pretty obvious choice for us!

my hubby and i don't have a song we have a whole album,lol.

the first night we slept together hubby put the cd player on ( were staying at a mates, no idea what cd was in the player) it was dido. we both loved the music. and from then we have spent hours and hours making love with dido playing in the background. and it has so many magical memories for us.

there is so many songs we love and played when first together, but for us dido will always stand out and be our album.

not sure which song were gonna choose tho when we renew our vowels. but i know it will def be a dido song.

OMG - I love "Iris" - it is one of my favourite songs of all time...

Ours too! I'm still debating whether to see if we can change it now as the more I think about it, the more I think that the lyrics don't actually matter a huge amount, it's more the fact that it is one of our favourite songs, so is more personal to us than Amazed, which, although I love, I think we both like Iris more.....

Iris is a lovely song. I adore Stand By Me as well, mainly because of memories of my parents singing it when I was little.
