HELP! Need song for wedding.
I was told the song is called FRIENDS by Anne Murray. Does anyone know where I can find it? Is it on an album, and which one? I don't know for sure that FRIENDS is the actual title. Anyone got a clue?

Dayna, I don't know that tune, Friends, but if you get really stuck a very popular tune for weddings is Lyle Lovett's "She's No Lady, She's My Wife".
<i>
She hates my momma
She hates my daddy too
She likes to tell me
How much she hates the things I do
She likes to lie beside me almost every night
Man, she's no lady, she's my wife"!

Back in the spring I played a Wedding Cerimony on my SS HAWAIIAN steel guitar; and I play the "Hawaiian Wedding Song" and it was a huge hit and very intimate. It's a very beautiful song and fitting for any occasion and you can find it on CD and or if you can get someone to play it live; it's a "Winner" everytime.

How about, "I Like My Women A Little On The
Trashy Side." Of course I'm only kidding.
Here is a killer, "You Are So Beautiful" by Joe Cocker. Big "E" has a nice version of this on one of his albums (can't remember which one) played on C6. Follow up with the Hawaiian Wedding Song, and you will get all the weddings in your area.

Dayna, I know this doesn't address your question, but since Jim Cohen brought up Lyle Lovett, it made me think of the tune he does as a duet with the writer of the song Townes Van Zandt, "If I Needed You". Beautiful song with lots of nice steel on it. EmmyLou Harris also does a nice version of it in a duet with Don Williams. I think it would be appropriate for a wedding.
???There was a song by Elton John called "Friends". You could check an MP3 sample on one of the search engines under his titles to see if that's the one you want.
...Or there's the Dionne Warwick tune "That's What Friends Are For".
...which for some strange reason made me think of the Rod Stewart line "with a face like that you've got nothin' to laugh about" from "Stay With Me"...come to think of it, that might not be a bad wedding tune for the real world today..."just don't be here in the morning when I wake up".<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Pat Burns on 16 September 2000 at 06:52 PM.]</p></FONT>

Some years ago I played with a band with limited technically abilities(very limited if you included mine). Anyways the only slow instrumentals we played were "Sleepwalk" and "Last Date". At some poor guy's wedding the head of the band had me play "Last Date" for the bride and groom's first dance together; talk about depressing and inappropriate I tried to hide under my steel but it didn't work. Pete.
