The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

This is the first song in the wedding playlist from my last post. I'm now obsessed with it. Roberta Flack performs it beautifully.

Wedding playlist finalised

Left it a little late (this week has not gone to plan at all), but I'm all done with the music for my Moms' wedding.  Playlist finalised and recorded onto 2 CDs!

This is the list I settled on -

  1. Roberta Flack - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
  2. Gladys Knight & The Pips - Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me
  3. Dusty Springfield - I Close My Eyes And Count To Ten
  4. Celine Dion & Frank Sinatra - All the Way
  5. Diana Ross & Lionel Richie - Endless Love
  6. The Carpenters - We've Only Just Begun
  7. Johnny Mathis - I'm Stone In Love With You
  8. Dusty Springfield - Look Of Love
  9. Frank Sinatra - I've Got You Under My Skin
  10. Nat King Cole - When I Fall In Love
  11. The Beach Boys - God Only Knows
  12. The Mamas & The Papas - California Dreamin'
  13. Diana Ross - Reach Out And Touch (Somebody's Hand)
  14. Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love
  15. The Carpenters - I Won't Last A Day Without You
  16. Dido - Thank You
  17. Charles Aznavour - She
  18. The Commodores - Easy
  19. Michael Jackson - I Just Can't Stop Loving You (feat. Siedah Garrett)
  20. The Stylistics - Can't Give You Anything (But My Love)
  21. The Police - Every Breath You Take
A fine selection that even a metal fan like me can enjoy!  Well, apart from the Celine Dion part anyway (that was all my Mom).

So now that's out of the way, all that's left is to practise some more with my camera (I'm doing the photography for the wedding) and give my house a good clean for guests at the weekend.  Have to say the former will be far more enjoyable than the latter, but it'll all be well worth it.

Do you kiss on the first date?

Awesome song from Danko Jones, and funny video too!

Once in a Lifetime

Was just listening to the 'Stop Making Sense' album by Talking Heads. This is a sample of what you're missing if you haven't discovered it yet.

Absolute brilliance!
