*~*~*NWQOTD - Thursday 7/22*~*~*

Ok so since we had so much fun yesterday with our theme songs, let's do a spin-off of that one.

What song defines your relationship with DH? Was it played at your wedding?

Ours is definitely, without a question, Journey's Don't Stop Believing. We met over 10 years ago, we stayed together the entire 4 years I went away to college, and still stood strong when I came home. And I'm convinced the only reason we're still together is because we both wanted it to work so badly, so we made it work, as hard as it was.

It was definitely played at our wedding. It was our last song

It was our first dance song... 311's 'Love Song'. DH and I broke up for about a month maybe 3 years ago? It was hard on both of us but DH always said this song made him think of me...

'However far away, I will always love you, whatever words I say, I will always love you.'

A month later we got back together and started looking for a place to live together! We moved in together a month after that.

We have a whole album - The Cure's 'Disintegration'. If it wasn't for that album, we would not be together. I borrowed it from him years ago, then when we started talking again, I said that I needed to return it to him. He had already bought a new copy...so I told him that I at least owed him a drink.

We have been together ever since.

It wasn't our first dance, but some of the album was played.

hmm, the first song that comes to mind is Regina Spektor's 'Fidelity.' Before DH and I met, we both realized that our past relationships were really not stellar, and we both put our guards up to take a reflective period of figuring out WHY all of these mistakes were happening. When we met, all the guards came down and it was that moment of 'oh...THIS is what a relationship should be like.' the song talks just about that .

Fidelity: Regina Spektor

Well Lips of an Angel defined us getting back together, sadly for the girl DH was dating while I was IMing him all the time, LOL. But no I did not want it played at our wedding.


But now I think our wedding song defines us...
Don't Want to Miss A Thing

which sadly we miss to much of each other with our current relationship setup

definitely our wedding song.. Heaven by Bryan Adams .. we've been together almost 10 years.. we were 15 & 16 when we first started dating .. it just sums everything up for us



Oh - thinkin' about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free

Now nothin' can take you away from me
We bin down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me comin' back for more

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lyin' here in my arms
I'm findin' it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh - once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Bring you up when you're feelin' down

Ya - nothin' could change what you mean to me
Oh there's lots that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

i think our wedding song is the perfect song for us, but there are a few.

wedding song: you and me by DMB
other: so right by DMB

we are like the biggeset DMB fans if you can't tell!

Pretty much all our set songs like first dance, second dance, cake cutting, etc they all had meaning to us and at some point while we were dating meant something to us...the lyrics too!

first our wedding song

Lost in this moment with you
I am completely consumed
My feelings so absolute, there’s no doubt
Sealing our love with a kiss
Waitin’ my whole life for this
Watching all my dreams come true
Lost in this moment with you

and second our good luck dance (second dance)
Then - by brad paisley

'Now your my whole life
Now your my whole world
I just cant believe the way I feel about you girl,
We'll look back someday at this moment that we're in
And i'll look at you and say
And I thought I loved you then'

thats our song too & we have been together for almost 10 years also

I like this question alot!

Ours would be 'Can't fight this feeling' by REO Speedwagon. The reason is that we work together (that's how we met) and were trying not to like each other because we worked together and saw each other every day. We all know dating a coworker can be very risky. Anyway, the song would remind me of the two of us before we dated because we both knew we liked each other, would flirt and were trying to fight the feeling.


ETA- It actually wasn't played at our wedding. I thought about making it our 1st dance song and decided against it because 1) DH said it was way too cheesy 80s and 2) at that point we weren't fighting any feelings anymore so I didn't think it was a good 1st dance song. So it wasn't played at the wedding but I still love the song (even if it is cheesy 80s).

Our wedding song----Beautiful by Jim Brickman

From the Moment I saw you,
From the moment I looked into your eyes
There was something about you
I knew I knew
That you were once in a life time
A treasure near impossible to find
And I know how lucky I am to have you

Chorus:
Cause I've seen the rainbows that can take your breath away
The beauty of the setting sun that ends a perfect day
And when it comes to shooting stars, I've seen a few
But I've never seen anything...as beautiful as you

Holding you in my arms
No one else has fit so perfectly
I could dance forever with you, with you
And at the stroke of midnight
Please forgive me if I can't let go
Cause I never dreamed I'd find a Cinderella of my own

Chorus:
Cause I've seen the rainbows that can take your breath away
The beauty of the setting sun that ends a perfect day
And when it comes to shooting stars, I've seen a few
But I've never seen anything...as beautiful as you

Chorus repeat:
Cause I've seen the rainbows that can take your breath away
The beauty of the setting sun that ends a perfect day
And when it comes to shooting stars, I've seen a few
But I've never seen anything...
Oh Oh, Oh no, I've never seen anything...as beautiful as you

From the moment I saw you,
From the moment I looked into your eyes...

i would say smile by uncle kracker...i wanted it to be our wedding song but dh thought it was too fast..so we made it for our highhlight section in the bideo..he now says he wishes we used it lol..but we both love the song and think it fits us

You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed
Sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh you make me smile

it fits cause whenever im down if i just think of him i can smile knowing he will always be there for me..

Definitely our wedding song: Nothings gonna stop us now by starship, I feel like this part of the song sums it up

Let em say we're crazy
I don't care about that
Put your hand in my hand
Baby Don't ever look back.
Let the world around us just fall apart
Baby we can make it if we're heart to heart.
And we can build this dream together
Standing strong forever
Nothing's gonna stop us now

This was our song too and this is one of the reasons why we picked it

just about every song we picked for the wedding had a special meaning to us and defined our relationship. From our entrance song 'I'm a Believer' (the Smashmouth version from Shrek, to our cake cutting song 'Till there Was You' by the Beatles. But the two that really meant the most to us were:

At Last by Etta James - we had my cousin (a professional singer) sing it during our reception

and our First Dance Song - Taking You Home by Don Henley - we love it because of the lyrics:

I had a good life
Before you came
I had my friends and my freedom
I had my name
Still there was sorrow and emptiness
'Til you made me blessed
Oh and this love
I've found strength I never knew I had

Chorus:
And this love
Is like nothing I have ever known
Take my hand, love
I'm taking you home
Taking you home

There were days, lonely days
When the world wouldn't throw me a crumb
But I kept on believin'
That this day would come

Chorus

I'm taking you home
Where we can be with the ones who really care
Home, where we can grow together
Keep you in my heart forever
