'Offbeat' First Dance Songs

Is anyone doing a first dance song that isn't exactly about love and devotion and all that stuff that usually goes into a first dance song? I've come up with a few, for example U2's In a Little While, that I think are so pretty but when I read the lyrics it doesn't shout out wedding song. To me the lyrics are very romantic though.

my song is more by an offbeat band that most people have never heard of..

I'll Catch You - by The Get Up Kids

Love it.

Re: 'Offbeat' First Dance Songs

ours is way off the beaten path lol. hard to concentrate by red hot chili peppers. the song itself is actually all about love, devotion and marriage but its def not a traditional song.
