Cake cutting song

Hi,
Should the cake cutting song be slow or upbeat?

Please post yours thanks!

i copied one of the girls here... forgive me for not remembering her name right now... we did 'how sweet it is' by james taylor

I love it when it's upbeat....I've always been a fan of 'When I'm 64' by the Beatles, which would have been my choice, but we have a musical theme (Bon Jovi)! I also love 'Grow Old with You' by Adam Sandler from the Wedding Singer.

We are doing Sugar, Sugar by the Archies. I thought it was cute.

I'm using upbeat....You're All I Need to Get By...Marvin Gaye and Tammy Terrell

I also love Ice Cream by Sara Mclaughlin for the cake cutting

Marvin Gaye... great choice! I love that song!

I also love James Taylor!!!
I've got lots of time to think about this, but I'll probably go with something upbeat.

I like upbeat too and 'When I'm 64' was our cake cutting song. Such a great song!

Duh forgot to mention what mine is- 'Captain Crash and the Beauty Queen from Mars' by Bon Jovi. YES odd choice but it came to me in a flash of brilliance (or ridiculousness, whichever way you see it). It's a song about a crazy couple, and at the end they sing about all the great and/or infamous couples....

here's the lyrics to explain my wackyness (it's from their album Crush by the way):

Dressed up for a big date
Like Halloween day but it was Fourth of July now
A car crash with a suitcase and a painted face
She was one of a kind
She wears a plastic crown like Cinderella
And roller skates in bed

He rides the greyhound from his hometown
When he comes around 'cause they don't let him drive now
Mixed up as a milkshake
But make no mistake
They're shooting for the stars

Chorus:
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars

Share a toothpick, trading lipstick
Watching traffic for days at the diner
Holding hands, making big plans
Playing Superman, he was wearing eyeliner
Another local legend and his longtime lucky charm

Chorus:
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
Dressed up just like ziggy but he couldn't play guitar
Captain Crash and the beauty queen from mars

They're drunk on love as you can get
Getting high on lust and cigarettes
Living life with no regrets
At least they're gonna try to fly

Chorus:
You and me
We're invincible together
We can be so tragical, whatever
We're Sid and Nancy
Fred and Ginger
Clyde and Bonnie
Liz and Richard
Kurt and Courtney
Bacall and Bogie
Joltin' Joe and Ms. Monroe
Here's captain crash and the beauty queen from mars


I LOVE IT!!! I get such a kick out of it. and to think I used to think the song was lame...but I love it when they play it in concert! The best part though is that FH loves the idea!! He totally gave a thumbs up! I suggested maybe switching it to Born to Be My Baby but I think he wanted this cuz it's definitely original!

if we didn't have a Bon Jovi musical theme, I'd like Pour Some Sugar on me...heehee!
