You May Now Dondle The Bride

Today, I'm working with a guy whose wife walked up the aisle to the theme from The Persuaders, which is a very good choice.

Anyway, here's some more wedding songs. Hope you enjoy (at least) some of them.

Great title GarethI & 'Spilldonds for Crane Wife. The Ever There would still be my preferred Elbow choice though.

Nice playlist.
I've always shunned The Decembrists as being just that bit too indie-schmindie for my tastes, but after listening to those tracks I realise I've been cutting off my proverbial nose, beautiful stuff.

Is there a definitive Decembrists album?

GarethI said...

Thanks, both. Japanther, I've only got Picaresque and The Crane Wife for the Decemberists, although I listen to the latter more often.

Japanther--Over on the Guardian top 1000 albums blog they picked Her Majesty the Decemberists, and it does have some good songs (Red Right Ankle is a standout for me) But if I had one complaint about the Decemberists, it's that sometimes they're a bit precious and sometimes they seem like they're trying to sound British, which they ain't, and that album has a few tracks that head that way for me. I really like Castaways and Cutouts, especially July July, Grace Cathedral Hill, and Clementine (as Can be heard above). Crane Wife and Picaresque good as well.

Picaresque for me, I felt The Crane Wife is a bit hard work: not keen on the extended noodling on some of TCW. They are my favourite band though, I just love the nerdiness.
