Topic: "Wedding Song"

I saw a a thread on the Chat Corner where a wedding song was requested. As I had never written one I thought I would have a go and this is the result. The photo on MySpace is my daughter , Donna and her hubby, Steve.

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.

Re: "Wedding Song"

Thanks Badeye and Plill,

Badeye, if do decide to have a third one you are more than welcome to use it, Better still I will cone and sing it for you and Gem and change the second line to "Brad for Gem and Gem for Brad.

Phill, it is on my MySpace but don't click the Website under my name as that is the Friends of Chordie link, hence my putting the right one with in my posting.

Re: "Wedding Song"

Hi Russ,

Yes that seems to be the trend today and I am no better which is why I used my daughter's wedding photo. They have been together from late teens and she celebrates her 40th next year. I have to say that Steve is a great guy and I could not have picked a better husband for her myself.

Re: "Wedding Song"

Thanks Roger, I married Gem in 1983 and last year at our 24th we re-married and had the biggest party with all our friends. Everyone had a great time. Next time we marry, your
invited .

Have a good one.. Badeye.

Re: "Wedding Song"

Great song, Roger - my memories of our wedding day are very blurry.  In the days leading up to the wedding, my beloved was very nervous about all the details and I was telling her, "Relax, darling, it's going to be fun stop worrying."

When the day finally arrived, the enormity of what we were doing finally hit me and I was suddenly extremely nervous.  She, on the other hand, was serene and confident and lovely.  I was practically hyperventilating at the altar - my father thought I would feint and keel over.

They tell me it was a lovely event - we have some photos of a lovely bride and a very nervous groom.  Since we are still together after 21 years, I guess it all worked out and we are still "bound by a love that is strong".

Why Blend in with the Crowd ? When you were made to stand out !

Re: "Wedding Song"

Sorry about the delay in replying but I have been away for a few days and then been busy since I came back and only just getting caught up.

Badeye, thanks for the invite but if you wait another 24 years I will be 84 and even if I am still here I do not think the voice will last that long lol

James, somehow I cannot imagine the ever cool and assured Mr McCormick feeling faint and hyperventilating but I am pleased that you have found your soulmate.

Daddycool and Ark, thank you.

Saba, your presence is missed here on Chordie and I hope all is well with you.

Granddaughter Rhiannon I will ensure you have a recording of it (if you have not changed your mind by the time the 'Big Day' arrives) and look forward to your visit (if you have not changed your mind when you get older) lol lol

Helena, thank you. In fact thank you all.

Re: "Wedding Song"

Thank you Will,
