·I (and probably many others) find it strange that many couples choose

I'm surprised there isn't a McCartney song there, but after all my head doesn't work like most people.

My Grandson was in a science fair last fall and while the organizers were tallying up the points to select the winner, they played a few of these songs and the kids had a ball dancing to them. Picture a gym floor packed with kids doing the "Chicken Dance"

How does a musician find a band to play his wedding anyways? All the bands you know are all your friends, and she'd be pissed if I bailed on the first dance to play a guit fiddle with the boys.

My band is called The Homewreckers. If we're playing a wedding, nobody expects us to play by the rules.

I was wondering who was playing the power chords.

some songs are better when you don't pay too much attention to the lyrics
I think many women find HARMLESS "stalker-ish" scenarios intriguing....as long as they are by handsome, wealthy, sensitive/perceptive men and don't involve any sort of violence or intimidation, invasion of privacy or other creepiness lol (so, obviously not stalking as much as "pursuing" or "wooing").Unfortunately, some men find that stuff to be real confusing.
This wasn't the only song of that nature to make women swoon....that James Blunt song comes to mind.
In my day, every wedding song was Bryan Adams "everything I do" followed a few years later by "I swear" by some boy-band (and covered like a year later by a country artist).
Surprised to see Bohemian rhapsody on that list...never heard it even once at a wedding. Mambo #5 should be there instead...and way up the list.

Regardless of their position, the dames are always "playing" with power chords.
I can't remember the name of that song. I am sure you know!

·I don't recognize it.
My guess is that they wrote it.
This song was written by a well known composer like Bach or Beethoven. Someone like that! I recognize the song but can't name it.

Pachebell's Canon in Dm
For some reason it's very popular here in Alberta to have wedding parties walk down the isle. Then switch to "here comes the bride"
