OT: Underrated Wedding first dance songs

[TerpWomenFan]

We know all the traditional wedding songs by John Legend and All My Life by KC and Jo Jo.

But I want to focus on songs that a great but don't get the credit it deserves.

What I wanted as our wedding song, but my wife wasn't a fan. Must be the Billy Joel version

Can't post covers like above, but for a number of friends who wish after years that they had as the first song: They're Coming to Take Me Away.

AT my best man's wedding a few years after mine, the scheduled band had a number of players get the flu, so there was a last minute sub DJ who played CD's. or maybe 8 track tapes. Or 78's. In any event the couple goes out to dance and the DJ plays "To All the Girl's I've Loved Before." The bride gave the DJ a look that I would never want to be on the receiving end for.

But they are still married, coming up on 50. We are approaching number 54.

Yes, I see 2 folks posted this. It was ours. I'm not sure I had ever heard of it, but my wife was a big Anne Murray fan. Very, very appropriate song.

From West Side Story, the movie. ( I like the original Broadway version better).
One Heart, One Hand.

Storybook love from the movie The Princess Bride. It worked for me. Look it up.

Excellent choice.

Maybe not underrated or even a dance song, but it's a classic. Since I was walking around Greenwich Village today, I was reminded of PP and M.
